Dispense 2-3 pumps into the palm of your hands. Apply it thoroughly to your entire beard and leave it in for a few minutes before applying other products.
Growing a beard isn't an overnight transformation—it's a journey. The golden rule? Commit to at least three months. No shaving. Resist the urge to reach for that razor, no matter how patchy or awkward things look at first.
Rule #5: Clean Your Trimmings
If you have a beard, that means you're a man. And if you're a man, you should act like it and clean up after yourself.
HOW DO I APPLY A HAIR OIL AND HOW MUCH SHOULD I BE APPLYING? The amount of hair oil we suggest ranges from 2-4 pumps depending on the length of hair, hair texture, hair thickness and hair condition.

Avoid Leaving Oil On For Too Long
If hair growth oil is left on for extended periods, it can attract dirt, clog pores, and lead to dandruff and itching. Over-saturation may also weaken hair strands, making them prone to breakage.
Most beard oils are made of all-natural ingredients, but it is still possible for it to cause an allergic reaction on your skin. There are hundreds of essential oils and carrier oils used in formulating beard oils, which may or may not suit your skin type.
Using too much beard oil can leave your beard feeling greasy and looking too shiny. A good rule of thumb is to start with a few drops, adjust based on your beard's length and thickness, and monitor the results.
Beard hair grows at a half-inch per month, so you'll be looking at a solid 6 inches by the time you reach day 365. That may not sound like much, but that's a hefty amount of face fur, and you should be fully prepared for what comes with having a beard of that magnitude.
Overall, you should not grow a beard if you want simplicity, professionalism, or if you want to look younger. However, if you think you'll feel better and more confident with a beard, and don't mind the extra patience and maintenance requirements, then go ahead and grow one!
By 16-17, this growth spreads over the entire upper lip. Around the same time and up until around 18, hair starts extending down from the sideburns as well as the spot under the lower lip. From 17-21, it continues to spread to all of the lower face to form a full beard.
No — shaving hair doesn't change its thickness, color or rate of growth. Shaving facial or body hair gives the hair a blunt tip. The tip might feel coarse or "stubbly" for a time as it grows out. During this phase, the hair might be more noticeable and perhaps appear darker or thicker.
For a stubble beard you only need 1 to 2 drops of beard oil per day. With a long or full beard we recommend using 5 drops. Don't forget to take the skin into account. Beard care is important to prevent irritations and beard itching, to get a healthy shine and to keep the beard in good shape.
You want to comb your beard after you take a shower or wash it, preferably while it's still damp but has air dried slightly — and after you've applied beard oil. This will let you detangle and style your beard, distributing the beard oil evenly.
While beard is still slightly damp, apply dime/nickel-sized amount of Beard Oil into your hands, rub together and apply thoroughly to beard. Be sure to massage skin with fingertips to work natural oil into the skin layer. This will help prevent excessive dryness and itch.
