Any beard growers out there???

[topsy666]

Beard growing is turning into a passion, anyone use beard oil or can recommend any? I use TUSCAN black label beard oil at the moment which I highly recommend Beard Oil if you are into the oiling and growing of beards!

Scientists are warning that we may have already hit 'peak beard'.

 

Personally, if I wanted everybody to look like Edwardians, I would have been born earlier.

Why oil, thought that went in the car!

 

I'm debating weather to shave mine off, had mine 6 months, although its short its getting annoying now.

My beard growing is very easy - I do nothing. I wash it and that's about it. It grows by itself, without any fancy products...

I had my hair and beard cut recently. Mrs DaveP occasionally gets a look in her eye every so often: That's when the hair comes off.

I've had a beard for about 15 years and it just grows. I've had a moustache for about 37 years - same story.

I'd highly recommend this online store:

Cheap, quick delivery, and personalised advice. Products are amazing too.

 

See the reviews.

My beard is over 30, and it has never needed oiling. Doesn't squeak; why oil it?

@Domino is surely a king for this thread Go back through EduGeek photos from events over the years and watch his beard grow

A friend of mine actually setup a company hand making and selling this sort of stuff:

GRUFF BEARD PRODUCTS: Balms, Oils & Soaps Handmade in Wales, UK

 

Doing quite well!

I don't bother using any kind of oil's or stuff like that, I'm quite fortunate and it just grows on it's own. Though I don't like to grow it past a grade 2 so regularly use hair clippers to trim it down and use scissors to keep my moustache in shape and not grown into my mouth. I also like to keep it in shape with my face so regularly keep it trimmed with a Gillette Razor

 

I tend to also use Gillette's moisturiser and chuck that all over my face in a morning and ensure to rub it into my beard so not to get flaky skin underneath. I find having facial hair and keeping it how you want is quite a lot more effort than just clean shaving.

The biggest thing I would recommend is Pine Tar Soap. You can wash the beard thoroughly without stripping it of it's natural oils. It feels so much better than washing it with head shampoo.

 

The smell is seriously manly too!

When I do have a beard I just let it grow.

 

Not fussed with oils etc.
