The true beardsman knows that there’s more to growing a beard than just not shaving. After reaching a certain length, usually a few inches, most give up. They soon realize the responsibility and attentiveness necessary in upkeeping a manly mane.
So, for those of you looking to up your beard game, here are four reasons why beard balm is the next step for you.

Beard Balm Keeps Your Skin and Hair Healthy
Carrier oils moisturize and nourish your beard, ensuring that it doesn’t dry out and become susceptible to split ends, breakage, irritation or beardruff.
Some common examples of carrier oils are jojoba, argan, almond, and coconut.
You might recognize these names from the back of your shampoo bottle. That’s because they serve a very similar purpose with one exception: Beard Balm’s unique blend of ingredients is designed to stay on all day.
Beard Balm Helps You Shape and Style Your Beard
Beeswax is found in all balms. It’s used to lock in and solidify other oils and acts as a binding agent to help you style your beard. It’s a light hold designed to guide the shape while keeping everything soft to the touch.
If you don’t feel like going through the trouble of washing the remainder off your hands when you’re done, apply the balm to your beard brush and use its bristles to help distribute it evenly.
Beard Balm Gives You A Manly Scent
Essential oils are the real kicker. They deliver the scent that accentuates your manliness. Common essential oils are rosemary, lavender, eucalyptus, lemon, cedarwood, or black pepper.
While they’re primarily added for sent, many of them have additional benefits not included in carrier oils. For example, Tea Tree oil is antifungal and helps with acne.
Beard Balm Has The Perfect Consistency
As previously mentioned, beard balm offers a mild hold to help you style your mane. Wax, while tougher, is usually better when you’re going for some crazy sculpting.
On the other hand, beard oil has the carrier and essential oils but no beeswax or butter to compliment the appearance.
Most beardsmen find that balm is the safest and most reliable option for overall beard maintenance.
Taming the mane isn’t easy. Hopefully, this guide to beard balm has encouraged you to take your bearding to the next level. Best wishes in your grooming adventures from all of use here at Grow A Beard.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
