3 Common Beard Problems and How to Fix Them-Beard Octane

3 Common Beard Problems and How to Fix Them

The struggle is real when it comes to growing a beard without any issues. This is especially true if you’re new to the whole beard thing. While you may get off to a rocky start with it, once you learn how to fix the most common beard problems, you should all but eliminate them. The longer your beard gets, the more care you will have to give it to avoid problems.

So, let’s get right into it. Here are the five most common beard problems and how to fix them:

  • Persistent Itching

Do you find yourself scratching your itchy beard throughout the day? If so, it means you are likely making matters worse by further irritating your skin. Itchiness is often an issue men have when they attempt to grow a beard after being clean-shaven for most of their lives. Not taking care of your beard well enough can also lead to it.

To eliminate the itchiness, you will want to invest in a high-quality beard oil. This oil, usually coming as a specially formulated blend, will moisturize the skin underneath your beard hairs. Beard oil will soothe the skin and return moisture that has left and created the itchy environment you are plagued by.

  • Beardruff

If you shampoo your beard while showering and don't moisturize it afterward, you are likely to get the detested beardruff. This is a form of dandruff that comes from the skin under your beard flaking off. Skin is skin, and will flake when it is too dry. If you naturally have dry skin then you will be more prone to experiencing beardruff as well.

Going forward, only expose your beard to cold or lukewarm water when washing it. The combination of both hot water and soap/shampoo is a recipe for beardruff. This is another common beard problem that can be helped with applying beard oil.

  • Beard Acne

This beard problem doesn’t have a clever name but it is just as big of a deal as beardruff. Beard acne is the result of bacteria building up on the skin under your beard. These bacteria make their way into it through the hair follicle openings. While men with dry skin are more likely to have itchy beards, those with more oily skin tend to have to deal with beard acne more.

Since shaving can make this type of acne even worse, you should step away from razors until you get the problem resolved. You will also want to apply natural oils that have antibacterial properties, such as coconut, jojoba, and grapeseed oils. These oils, found in many beard oils as well, are also anti-inflammatory, so they will dramatically reduce the redness stemming from acne. Essential oils like tea tree and eucalyptus oils are well-known for their antibacterial properties, and are also sometimes included in beard oils to provide a very effective anti-acne blend.

  • Conclusion

These three common beard problems no longer have to be a thorn in your side (or beard) by simply using a good beard oil. Beard Octane carries specially-formulated beard oils that men everywhere use religiously to prevent these beard problems, as well as others. Having a beard should be enjoyable, so make sure you’re doing what you can to protect it.
