Beard Growth Tips: How to Grow a Thicker, Healthier Beard (Even If It’s Slow)
Let’s get one thing straight, growing a beard isn’t just about genetics.
It’s about how you treat your skin, your beard and your body.
If you’ve ever felt stuck at patchy stubble…
Or your beard grows, but it’s wiry, thin or breaks easily…
You’re not doomed, you’re just missing the routine.
Here are the most effective, no-nonsense beard growth tips that actually work and how to implement them the Braw way.
Tip #1: Fuel It From the Inside Out
Healthy beards start with your body.
If your diet is rubbish and you’re barely sleeping, don’t expect a epic mane.
Do This:
• Eat more protein (eggs, salmon, lean meat, nuts)
• Include zinc, biotin & vitamin D (natural sources or supplements)
• Stay hydrated. Dry skin = slow growth
• Prioritise deep sleep (this is when regeneration happens)
Your beard is made of keratin (a protein). Give your body the raw materials and it’ll respond.
Tip #2: Use Beard Oil Daily
Your face produces sebum to keep the skin and hair healthy but when growing a beard, it’s not always enough.
That’s where Braw Beard oil comes in.
Why it works:
• Moisturises the skin beneath (essential for growth)
• Reduces itchiness and flaking that can stop guys early
• Softens hair, preventing breakage
• Promotes a healthier follicle environment
Apply it daily, morning and night if your skin runs dry.
Tip #3: Exfoliate & Brush
Dead skin, clogged pores and trapped oils are growth killers.
Daily: Use a Boar Bristle Beard Brush
It’ll:
• Lift dead skin
• Stimulate blood flow to follicles
• Distribute oil evenly
• Train your beard to grow in the right direction
Tip #4: Wash It Less, But Smarter
Overwashing dries out the beard which can slow growth.
Use a proper beard-specific wash 2–3x per week to keep it clean without stripping oils.
Braw Beard Wash is:
• Organic
• Infused with Aloe Vera
• Unscented (won’t clash with your oil)
Tip #5: Be Consistent (Growth Takes Time)
Most lads give up too early.
Beard growth takes up to 90 days to fully show results.
Patchy areas may start filling in after a few weeks but only if you stay consistent.
Take progress photos every month instead of relying on the mirror daily.

Beard Growth Mistakes to Avoid
• Using hair shampoo (strips oil)
• Shaving often hoping it “grows back thicker” (myth)
