What is the aim of beard oils?

Beard oils are not made to harm the skin, instead their sole aim is to replenish moisture to your beards and to your face, they also heal the skin of any irritation and can be good for aromatherapy; as its scent could be soothing to the nose. It also works to soften beard hair and reduce itchiness. Naturally, beard hairs take the oil away from the skin, when this happens, your skin dries out and also starts to overly produce its own natural oil called ‘Sebum’ to make up for the oil it does not possess.

When all this happens, your face becomes too oily and may cause clogged up pores and also lead to acne. This is where beard oils help. When a beard oil is applied, it works in two ways; it keeps the beard hair moisturized and also simultaneously moisturized the skin. When the skin is moisturized, it does not lose any oil, so it doesn’t try to overly produce its own oil (sebum) to compensate. This means you not only score a great smelling beard but also a glowing and healthy skin too.

Why is a beard oil so important?

A beard oil imitates the natural oil our skin produces, it helps to maintain a healthy skin and a healthy beard too. They are needed to nourish the beard and the skin underneath it. This does not mean that your skin cannot produce these natural oils but when the hair zaps all the oil away from the skin (as previously explained in the beginning of the article) and leaves it bare and dry, you need to find other supplementary means to replenish it. That’s where the beard oil comes in. A more graphic picture of the importance of a beard oil is outlined thus;

When your beards grow, the sebaceous glands in your skin (these are the glands which are responsible for producing sebum oil which is needed to lubricate the hair and the skin) which are naturally small, are then faced with an overwhelming demand to ensure that the newly grown hair is coated with oil. But then, the bad news is that there is only a limited amount of oil the sebaceous glands can produce and this means that part of the newly grown beard hair would come out dry and frizzy. Without the nourishment of the sebum oil, the beard hair would start to itch the skin beneath it. Beard oil is then needed to supplement for what the sebum oil could not and correct the dryness and flakiness of the skin. The oil then coats the newly grown hair and nourishes it alongside the skin.

Can beard oil grow a beard?

Beard oils contain unrefined jojoba oil and this helps in the growth beards by creating conditions for healthy beard growth. It works effectively to reduce the breakage of hair and gives you beard hair a thicker appearance and a much longer look. But remember, no hair oil actually causes natural beard growth, it only enhances its growth conditions. More like, it gives you hair a platform to grow better and longer.

How do you groom your beards?

Care to share?

TSOM:
You definitely arrived at some conclusions after the discussion yesterday and this is the result. Nice.

[b] Twice a week? That's probably 'cause you always want to ensure the beard lines are razor-sharp.

Little jagged edges to the beard gives the 'hardy' look which doesn't make you come off as soft-looking. They don't always have to be evenly shaped.

Even Banky W went from the from his Craig-David- styled beard style to a little more rugged look.

Five or six times a week at the barber's is alright but twice a week? That's a whole level of pettiness.

Fam did you just say five times a week at the barber's shop?
I'd rather advise peeps to get a trimmer.
