Just like so many other men, you plan to grow a Beard. And rightly so, because beards are back in style, they look masculine, and many women can't resist them!
But if you've decided to go for a Beard, unfortunately, that doesn't mean a lush beard will immediately appear on your chin. Growing a Beard properly is a process that can take months to years, depending on the type of beard you're satisfied with. And the period until then can be tough: the short hairs itch, it only covers half of your skin, and its shape resembles a supervillain from the 80s.
Can you stimulate your Beard Growth to make this ordeal last as short as possible? Yes, you can – if you follow these tips.
What factors can stimulate your Beard Growth?
An average Beard grows slower than your head hair, about 1.5 centimeters per month. How quickly your beard grows depends on your genes, your health, your diet, and your skincare. Fortunately, you have control over most of these factors!
Tip 1: Pay attention to your lifestyle
The better your life is in balance, the better your Body will be. Getting enough rest, limiting stress, following a balanced diet, and getting enough exercise all contribute to this. A good lifestyle accelerates all growth and renewal processes in your body, including those in your skin and hair follicles.
Tip 2: Surrender to the process
We've already mentioned a few downsides to growing a Beard: itching, red skin, bald spots, and an unattractive shape. You just have to get through it. Don't immediately Shaving when it irritates you. Consider the discomfort an investment in a beautiful new look later. You want a Beard, so you're a man! Bite the bullet and wait a month until your Beard looks better and feels nicer. Fortunately, you can do plenty about the itching. You'll find that in the following tips.
Tip 3: Leave your Beard alone for the first month
A good time to start shaping your Beard is after the first month. Only then are the hairs long enough to get an idea of what your final facial hair will look like. After about four weeks, you can carefully start trimming or cutting your Beard, and plucking unwanted stray hairs with tweezers. Tinkering with your Beard before then can lead to an ugly result – so stay away for a while, no matter how excited you are!
Tip 4: Drink enough water
Humans are made up mostly of water, 65 percent to be exact. On Saturday evenings, sometimes also a significant part beer, but that's beside the point. Water plays a crucial role in our Body. Almost every function, including processes in your skin, is stimulated by water. Drinking enough water helps with the production of keratin, the stuff Hair and skin cells are made of. So don't be tough by only downing whiskey on hot days, a few liters of water a day is good for everything happening in your body. Also for your Beard Growth and for healthy facial skin.
Tip 5: Hydrate your Beard with Beard Oil!
Beard Oil is a wonderful invention that nourishes and hydrates your beard hair and the skin underneath. The hairs become more supple and softer, and itching decreases. It's even better to choose oil with vitamins B6, E, and C – these substances will promote the production of skin cells and the Beard Growth.
Tip 6: Clean Beard Care with Beard Shampoo and Conditioner
Leaving your Beard alone is a good idea, but at some point, you really need to wash it. This helps against itching, removes excess sebum and dirt that can cause pimples, and brings the Hair into perfect condition, so your Beard looks good in the long term as well.
Also, special Beard Shampoo and Beard Conditioner contain ingredients that care for and soften the Beard and are so mild that the beard hairs will not dry out. Moreover, don't underestimate how much mud and pizza remnants can get stuck in your Beard, washing it occasionally is considerate for your girlfriend.
Tip 7: Regularly remove dead skin cells
Your skin constantly sheds dead skin cells. Especially if you have oily skin, these can block your pores, leading to pimples or beard dandruff. The microorganisms and small inflammations that arise can reduce your Beard Growth and damage the hairs. So, regularly use a Beard Brush. This scrubs the dead skin cells off your chin. This reduces the chance of an itchy Beard and allows the skin to better absorb nutrients from, for example, a Beard Oil, which will accelerate the Beard Growth.
Tip 8: Use beard growth oil
Beard Growth oil is a special oil that helps stimulate the Beard Growth. This oil contains ingredients that stimulate blood circulation in the skin around the beard hair follicles. This stimulates the Beard Growth and allows you to grow a fuller Beard faster. Beard Growth oil often contains natural oils like Argan Oil, jojoba oil, and Castor Oil that hydrate and care for the beard hairs. Additionally, using Beard Growth oil ensures healthy skin under the Beard.
Apply the Beard Growth oil to a clean, dry Beard and gently massage the oil into the skin. Do this preferably before bedtime, so the oil can work overnight. Regular use of Beard Growth oil can lead to faster and fuller Beard Growth.
Tip 9: Leave Beardy alone!
Did we already mention that getting a full Beard can take a lot of time? Hang in there, man! If after half a year you still have an ugly toilet brush on your chin, try to laugh it off and don't shave it off in frustration. Wait until the hairs are just a bit longer, and you'll see that you can suddenly shape them quite magically.
And no, Shaving does not result in faster hair growth, that has already been proven a hundred times. So leave the Hair Clipper in the cupboard, take care of your Beard and your Body, and you'll see: after a year you'll really look like a Viking metal biker, or something like that!
