Same setting all the way around. You can start shaping more as your beard transitions from stubble to a fuller beard. Wash your face and stubble every day with a specialized face and beard cleanser. Once your stubble transitions into beard length, wash your beard with a beard cleanser once or twice a week. This prevents your beard from becoming overly dry. This is, of course, situationally dependent. If you have a dirty job or sweat a lot, you just might have to wash every day to maintain proper hygiene.
The majority of beard-related problems, including itch and dandruff, are easily remedied with proper hydration. Our daily moisturizer was designed for that very purpose. While beard oils are wonderful for softening longer beards, a specially designed moisturizer treats skin conditions that beard oils simply cannot address.
For extra oomph, apply beard oil after moisturizing. How's that for awesome? This product changes monthly. For some, that may mean a ZZ Top or Duck Dynasty type of beard that is extremely long, or has been allowed to run wild, so to speak. The neckline is another matter, and keeping your neckline trimmed as you grow a full beard is important to keep it from looking like you have a neckbeard.
The simple answer is two to six months, for most men. Indeed, the simple act of putting down your razor, and doing your best to keep your hands off of it, ensures that your beard will reach its full-growth stage in the proper amount of time. Trimming and shaping it will delay the process and skew the timeframe by which you can grow a full face of whiskers.
It's up to you whether slow, steady, and well-maintained is your speed, or if you're simply going for length. It comes down to three phases: anagen, catagen, and telogen, all of which affect androgenic hair, AKA, facial hair. Anagen is the growth phase and can last from several months to up to a year for androgenic hair. Scalp hair can remain in the anagen phase for much longer but this phase ceases more rapidly for beard hair, which is why most of us will never grow a beard long enough to reach the floor.
Facial hair can grow about a half-inch, tops, each month during the anagen phase. How long your hair remains in the anagen phase largely comes down to genetics. Not much happens during the catagen phase except that hair strands become separated from the hair follicle and become attached to the skin. A lot goes on during the telogen phase in which the hair remains intact for 2 to 4 months while follicles slowly return to the anagen phase.
The new, incoming hair pushes the old hair out of the skin and eventually causes it to fall off. The first phase of hair growth in males usually takes place between 12 to 16 years of age.
Of course, we all remember the dude in junior high with a full beard — or close to one — but he was, and still is, an anomaly. But the optimal age for hair growth is from 25 to 35 years of age because testosterone levels are rising which, in turn, extends the length of the anagen phase of hair growth.
And hair that has more time to grow typically has a better growth rate. By joining via text, you agree to receive recurring automated marketing messages at the cell number used to send the Join text. Consent is not a condition of any purchase.
There are many ways to deal with beard itch, including Beard Oil , that magic potion that every man should have in his grooming arsenal, and any other method for moisturizing your beard and the skin underneath it. Again, patience and resilience are important during the wild and often wonderful process of growing a beard. Beard itch, at least the most aggravating forms of it, will subside over time.
Feel free to shave the facial hair on your cheeks and neck, especially your neck. The fact is, not trimming your neck is a faux pas that can identify you as a rookie vs. Doing so will prevent you from looking unkempt while you grow your beard out.
Understand, however, that these tips may not work for everyone. Too much stress and too little sleep can cause countless health problems, not to mention affect your beard growth.
Aim for 7 to 8 hours of sleep each night, and try strategies such as meditation or deep-breathing techniques to help de-stress. One way to help mask thinner or zero growth in those spots is to let the hair around them grow longer.
You can hide those sparse spots a little with longer beard hair nearby. Alopecia areata is the more common condition. When beard alopecia areata develops, men are usually middle-aged and hair loss is typically along the jawline. Unusual conditions, such as prolactinoma — a noncancerous tumor of the pituitary gland — can also result in thin or missing facial hair.
The time it takes to grow a beard — not to mention the look of the final product — varies from person to person. That means being patient and watching for signs of medical conditions that may affect your beard growth. Genetics is the primary factor that determines how thick your beard will grow. The rate at which your beard will grow in, as well as its fullness, is largely determined by genetics.
But there are a few things you can try that…. Some men can grow facial without any effort, others have to really put the work in.
When testosterone is doing its thing and the beard is growing, the hair itself goes through three cycles: anagen, catagen and telogen. Whenever you look at your beard in the mirror, one of these things is happening. But how does that play out in the trenches? Growing a beard can be strange at first. People will be adjusting to your new look too. Beard itch is a big problem. So much so that we wrote a blog post on how to deal with it.
It arises from years of shaving sharpening the hair and making it coarse like sandpaper. When that hair breaks through, it irritates the skin, causing dryness and inflammation. These things bring about the itchiness.
Some get it so bad that they give up on the idea of growing a beard. Stage 2 is four to six weeks in. A bigger problem at this stage is patchiness. Again, this is a lot to do with genetics. Keep hydrating your beard with beard oil. Use beard balm to add natural volume to your beard to make it look thicker.
