The Secrets to Successfully Growing Out Your Beard

The Secrets to Successfully Growing Out Your Beard

READ TIME: 2 MINUTES. I’ve been through the highs and lows of growing out a beard and know all about the patience and care required. If you want a longer, fuller beard but feel it's taking forever to see any significant progress, I’ve been there, too. Today, I'm sharing personal insights on how to nurture a big beard.

The Realities of Growing Out Your Beard

Growing out a beard is a test of patience and commitment. It's not just about letting the hair on your face grow wild - sure, you can do that, but there’s more to it if you want great results. 

Patience Is Key

The journey to a longer beard comes with frustrations, like slow growth. Remember that like the hair on your head, beard hair has a growth cycle that includes shedding and regrowth. Patience is necessary when growing out your beard.


Nourish and Maintain

Using the right products plays a huge role in growing and maintaining a healthy beard. Braw Beard oils, for example, are designed to keep your beard hair well conditioned, and the skin underneath moisturised, assisting healthier growth that can lead to a fuller appearance. Daily use of Braw Beard oils can reduce issues like itching and beard dandruff, which can become more aggressive as your beard grows.

 

Common Growth Concerns

Fear of Hair Loss

The main fear I hear from bearded men is hair falling out. This can be concerning when you're trying to grow your beard longer. However, some shedding is natural. We lose about 50 to 100 hairs per day due to the hair’s natural cycle. If you notice excessive shedding, it might be time to go visit your doctor for advice.

Genetic Limitations

Many men worry that their genetics will limit their beard growth. While genetics play a role in the texture and density of your beard, taking care of your general health, diet and hydration can help you achieve the best beard development possible. Keep your skin and beard clean and well-moisturised with products like Braw Beard Wash and oils, which can create a better environment for beard growth.

Dealing with Other People’s Opinions

It’s normal to worry about what others think of your beard. My advice? Your beard is a personal expression and part of your identity. Focus on how it makes YOU feel. Does it make you feel confident and strong? The opinion that matters most is your own.

Useful Tips for Beard Growth

Stay Consistent with Care

Braw Beard oil in your daily routine will keep the hair soft and manageable. I recommend applying it every morning. It conditions the hair and moisturises the skin underneath.

Diet and Hydration

What you eat also plays a role in hair health. Ensure your diet is rich in vitamins A, B, C, D, E, and minerals such as zinc and iron. Staying hydrated is crucial, too, as water helps flush out toxins that could impact the health of your hair follicles.

Grooming and Trimming

Trimming helps remove split ends and damaged hair, which could affect healthy growth. Use a good-quality beard comb and scissors to keep your beard looking its best. Visit a good beard barber too if you are not comfortable trimming your own beard.

Enjoy the Journey

Growing out your beard is a journey, but remember, it takes time until you see what your beard can achieve in terms of length and density. You can grow a beard that enhances your appearance and confidence with the proper care, products, and attitude. Stick with it, use the right products from Braw Beard, and most importantly, enjoy every step of your beard growth journey. 

I hope this helps?

Enjoy your beard journey!
