      What is the deal with beard oil and beard balm? To anyone who uses it, what does it do to your beard and do you recommend it?

            Most of the year, I keep my beard pretty short (~1 - 2 cm), so I just shampoo/condition it with my hair.  Over the summer holidays, though, I usually let my beard grow out, and then I do use beard balm.

            I find it keeps my beard much softer.  It also seems to make it a little easier to manage; without it, my hair immediately curls in every direction and looks even thinner than it actually is.

            I don't know what the ingredients are, but I assume it's mostly just a hydrophobic barrier to keep the hairs from drying out.  If you have a somewhat longish beard and it's not as soft as you like or it's not growing as long as you'd like, I say try it out.  Note, you only need the tiniest amount, so it usually lasts a good while.

              Yeah I learned the hard way after letting my beard grow out that it can get pretty curly, rough and dry.

              So I use a beard conditioner. I have not seen a huge difference but still better than nothing.

              But I guess if someone's beard is quite short, they you really dont need such products.

                1-2 cm is not so short.. for me at least!

                ;D
