How to make your beard soft is one of the first questions most men ask after they start letting their beard grow. Is there some magical beard softener you didn\u2019t know about? What are those soap-looking balms people put on their faces?<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t worry, there\u2019s no grand mystery when it comes to learning how to soften your beard and then how to keep your beard soft. All it takes is a couple of minutes of dedicated care every morning. So, to shine some light on the whole thing here\u2019s a complete step-by-step guide on how to make your beard soft:<\/p>\n
This sounds like a no brainer but there is a vast number of men out there that don\u2019t purposefully wash their beards. Yes, they bathe every day and let the shampoo water run down their face, and yes \u2013 they splash their faces with water every once in a while. But a lot of men don\u2019t take any special time during their showers or just in the morning to wash their beards in particular.<\/p>\n
However, a man\u2019s beard needs some dedicated time as well. Just like our hair, our beards need to be carefully washed with a shampoo or a face soap 3 to 5 times per week<\/strong><\/em>. In fact, beards need even more attention than our scalp hair as they can take in much more food and other debris during the day which further ruins their quality and softness. To avoid that, you don\u2019t necessarily have to wash your bead while showering \u2013 you can also do it on its own, in the morning. Just don\u2019t forget that you need to wash your beard at least several times per week.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re wondering what kind of shampoo or soap you should be using, that answer can depend a lot from person to person. However, the general rule of thumb is that any regular shampoo can also work on your beard as long as it\u2019s not too strong \u2013 the skin on our face is typically softer and more sensitive than that on our scalp so you need to be careful with it. Standard facial soaps can work as well if they are of good enough quality.<\/p>\n Using a conditioner on your beard is also a good idea after washing it, especially if it\u2019s longer than an inch. Just as with your scalp\u2019s hair, a good conditioner can do wonders for the softness of your facial hair. Remember to apply it carefully, however \u2013 only on your beard hair itself and not on your skin, only on towel-dried beads, and let it stay on for a minute or two before you wash it off.<\/p>\nUse only mild shampoo and other products on your beard<\/h3>\n
Don\u2019t ignore the conditioner, especially on longer beards<\/h3>\n
Combs and brushes are your friends<\/h3>\n
