Beard brushes

Why you need a beard brush

If you’ve just started growing your beard, you may feel overwhelmed by the number of products people tell you to buy to get the beard of your dreams.

Each man’s beard is different and when it comes to beard brushes, they may or may not work for you. The general consensus is that for the best results, you should try both a beard brush and beard comb before choosing one (or both).

Boar's hair beard brushes retain oils

Boar's hair beard brushes are the best quality beard brushes you can buy. The boar hair helps stimulate natural oil production and spreads the oils throughout the entire length of the hairs.

A brush gives your beard a fuller look

The general rule of thumb is: a comb is for styling and a brush is to give your beard a fuller, thicker look. Brushing with a beard brush helps the hairs lay in one direction, as well as ensuring full coverage of oils throughout the beard.

Boar's hair bristles differ in length

The stock standard brush from a shelf has plastic bristles of the same length. Natural boar's hair brushes have bristles of different lengths. This means they help spread oil right throughout the beard evenly, with no missing spots.

Beard brushes for vegans

In the beard world, boar bristle beard brushes are usually considered as the only realistic choice. This won’t work if you’re a vegan, however. Synthetic brushes are given a hard time, but there are several high-quality ones available. They’re just a little bit harder to find.
