Growing a beard? Good on ya.
But let’s be real looking after it? That’s where legends are made.
Here at Bloke and Co, we get heaps of questions about beard care. So we’ve put together this quick-fire guide to help you grow it, tame it, and keep it looking mint.
How often should I wash my beard?
Depends on your lifestyle, but here’s the deal:
Some beard washes strip your face like dish soap. Ours doesn’t.
Bloke and Co Beard Wash is made to hydrate and clean, so it’s gentle enough for daily use especially if you’re sweating, working outdoors, or just living a full-tilt kind of life.
No dryness. No flaking. No drama. Just a clean, fresh, good-smelling beard.
Regular shampoo = dry, itchy face.
Shop Beard Wash – No harsh stuff, just good clean beards.
Beard oil, balm or butter – what’s the go?
Great question. Here’s the lowdown:
- Beard Oil – Daily hydration for the skin and beard. Softens things up.
- Beard Balm – Adds moisture and hold. Good for shaping short beards.
- Beard Butter – Rich and creamy. Great for bigger beards, nighttime use is recommended.
Use one or mix and match. Your beard, your rules.
Check Out the Range – All-natural, all-awesome.
Why is my beard itchy as hell?
It’s either dry skin or new growth giving you grief.
The fix? Hydrate with oil or balm, and use our natural boar beard brush.
It’ll calm the itch and make you feel human again.
What’s beardruff and why is it ruining my T-shirts?
Beardruff = flakes on your shirt. Not a vibe.
It’s usually from dry skin or not brushing.
Solution?
✔ Wash a few times a week
✔ Use oil or balm daily
✔ Brush it out like a boss
Will beard oil make it grow faster?
Not magic oil, mate… but ours comes pretty close.
Regular beard oil keeps things soft and healthy but our Growth Oil? That stuff’s blended with the best of nature to help boost growth and wake up sluggish patches.
Wanna level up? Pair it with our Derma Roller.
It gets blood flow pumping to the follicles so your beard can do what it was born to do: grow like a beast.
Patchy beard? Not on our watch.
Do I really need to brush it?
Yep. Brushing does three things:
- Spreads oils
- Keeps skin healthy
- Makes you look sharp
Use our boar bristle brush. It gets in deep without being rough.
What’s a low-maintenance beard routine?
This one’s for the blokes who like it easy:
- Wash 2–3x a week
- Beard Oil or Beard Balm in the morning
- Balm or Oil at night
- Quick daily brush
Done in under 2 minutes. You’re good to go.
