Think beard balm is the best among the 3
Good video. I mostly use oil and butter daily. I do have one balm but don't notice much difference with it My beard isn't very long yet though and I often end up trimming stray hairs off. Trying to go the whole month at least without a trim, maybe two months and hoping to get a barber to shape it better then.

Thank you! I've found a big difference using balm as my beard got longer...just more control and less wispiness. The butter I'm bringing out has no beeswax in it so it's very conditioning but has only a little hold. When you get to the Barbers focus on shaping rather than taking length off and that will allow your beard to really fill out. Appreciate you watching and commenting!

Just created, a man pack. Being a mechanic was just used to being dirty, and using magic orange for everything, and my wife hiding the nail clippers, I highly recommend creating a man bag, spent about $80 including lawn mower 2.0 so not too bad.

Great. The yellow or brown oils and butters end up staining my lighter colored shirts. It looks awful during the workday. Have you experienced this? This is why I haven’t used some products. I use coconut oil and that’s it.

I personally haven't found that but I don't wear a lot of white shirts. I did notice oil patches when I used a high zipped coat under my chin and my beard was very long. Long beards are definitely trickier!
Do you recommend applying the balm while your beard is damp, or dry? Thanks.
@westcorkbeardcompany
2 жыл бұрын
I would only ever put on beard balm after beard oil. Therefore your beard will be slightly damp from the oil when you apply the balm. Do however wait ten or fifteen minutes between the oil and balm. Beard balm alone on your beard over a few days can be drying due to the beeswax in it. Oil for moisture, balm for hold and control.
Hi Colin! I got my purchase today ❤️ I'm a bit confused about the proper use of the products. On the card you sent with the products it says beard butter for the long beard and balm from 3-8 weeks. Here, you said balm for long beard to control the shape. My beard is about 3 months old y and I ordered the balm. Should I order the butter instead?
@westcorkbeardcompany

The balm is great to style your beard and keep it controlled throughout the day. It's a personal choice but I prefer the butter on a longer beard as it gives a bit of hold but adds lots of softness to the beard also. Use the balm and see how you go...if you are going to continue to have a long beard then I would definitely get some butter in the future. Delighted the products arrived and thank you again!

@@westcorkbeardcompany Hi Colin! I have to say, the scent of the sandalwood - Juniper oil is amazing! Unfortunately my skin gets itchy from it 😥 I don't know, if the Juniper or the sandalwood essential oil is the reason, but after a few minutes my skin rushing and start to itching. I tried to rule out if it's the oil or the cedarwood and fir balm,. it's definitely the oil. Maybe I have to purchase a.non scented one. The quality is Superb!
I don't have a full beard, but my goatee is very long and full. Can i get away with just using oil and balm? I'm looking to get more hold and styling without having to do all these steps. Also, can i oil the night before and just balm in the morning? Thanks
@westcorkbeardcompany

Yes for both! I would only oil my beard if I was just after washing it to avoid any dry skin happening. You will know how your beard feels in the morning...a drop or two of oil if needed and beard balm to style is perfect. The beard butter is for extra softness but again every beard has different needs depending on washes, environment etc. Thanks for the question! Colin
Waiting 4 pay day then I’ll try your beard kit w/brush , do I apply oil on brush or my hands to apply to my frizzy beard ? L8tr

Just strolling by great information. As guy with a coarse hair after a few uses of balm within a week time span it starts to get heavy causing my beard to start looking a little deformed.

You should definitely try some beard butter...lighter than balm but also gives some hold. It's great at softening too. Try one with no beeswax in it 👍
You should mix all three together and do it all in one shot, ( bingo, that's a good idea for a new product ).

Do you have to wash one product out of your beard before you use another for example if I use beard oil does that have to be washed off the beard before I use beard butter etc?

Hi Caolán, no it's best not to. Think of beard oil as the base before the balm or butter goes on. You have to sort the skin out with the oil first before you move to the next product. I would use oil and balm together or oil and butter but rarely all three!

Are you using beard oil and a brush? Also think about the amount of water you're drinking every day as well as if you're using shower gel on your beard when you wash it 👊 If there's an itch then it's the skin so adding beard butter may not be the answer. Beard butter is perfect for a longer beard as it focuses on the hair and softens it
