You should brush it with a boar brush, or other similar tough bristle brush. It clears out all the dead skin but most importantly it feels incredible if you haven’t done it in awhile.
Like you are scratching that mosquito bite between your shoulder blades you haven’t been able to reach in days.
Also beard oil and a comb does wonders to keep things feeling nice under there. My beard used to be painful to brush because the skin underneath was so dry and irritated. Once I started applying a bit of beard oil after the shower though, it was instantly more comfortable.
Also it’s really easy to make your own beard oil, and it’s way cheaper than individually buying the fancy little 1oz glass bottles. Just get a couple carrier oils (I use a touch of castor oil for thickness/texture, and then about half and half sweet almond oil and fractionated coconut oil), mix them together, and apply to the beard. You can even add a few drops of essential oil to add scent if you like.
On a similar note: As a beard-haver, I haven’t washed my face in anything except Head and Shoulders in 15 years
Same here, though I would be lying if I said I wasn’t at all concerned about what might be going on under there.
Solution: never find out.
NGL this was the thr best Ad ever in full movie lengh, i never used anything else than head and shoulders since then.
Love that movie
And as a bald guy I haven’t washed my head in anything except Irish spring in 17 years!
