Why can't you use normal shampoo to wash your beard?
Beard hair and your underlying skin are a lot more sensitive than scalp hair. A normal shampoo will therefore be much too aggressive and often also contains chemical ingredients. Using a normal shampoo will lead to a dry, unkempt and hard beard.
In addition, the underlying skin will also become dry, causing it to flake and cause beard itch. These flakes (aka beard rose mentioned) can get into your beard, making it look unkempt. A beard wash therefore contains more natural ingredients and nutrients than a normal shampoo. A beard wash also ensures that not only the beard hairs, but also the underlying skin is cared for.
