For my fellow bearded men

[Spots]

I found this the other day. I'm gonna order a couple of different scents as soon as I get the cash worked up. I've found using a beard oil makes my beard much softer and more manageable, which makes it more acceptable to my wife lol. http://www.etsy.com/shop/tennesseebeardco Tapatalk ate my spelling.

Good find. Thanks for the linky. Always looking to support a home state biz.

[quote name="Keal G Seo" post="1102992" timestamp="1391007826"]I've never used a beard oil. I've just used conditioner to keep it softer. Does oil actually get into it? Keep me updated. While I like all their scents the main thing I'd like to know is how strong the smell is before I try a bit.[/quote] I normally only wash my beard out with shampoo once a week unless it just gets full of block dust, since the shampoo drys it out. So I normally just rinse it out good and doing that the beard oil makes mine feel smoother and softer than just using conditioner. Im intrested to see how it smells also, because I wanna try the cedar and the peppermint. Tapatalk ate my spelling. Edited January 29, 2014 by Spots

Sounds good....,  but will the oil make your beard too slick and slippery to maintain a consistent and repeatable cheek weld on you rifle stock?   :confused:

I use Mane & Tail Horse Shampoo for my head and beard.  Works fairly well I suppose.  Never heard of "beard oil"  Might haveta giver a look.  

 

I started growing my beard out about a year or so ago.  Makes me wonder why the heck I ever wasted time shaving.  You shave it off and damn if the stuff don't grow right back.  Maybe it's supposed to be there.  I quit cutting hair altogether.  I used to shave my head with the dog clippers once a month.  My wife hated it.  Said I looked like a skinhead.  SO, in defiance, I quit cutting it at all.  It's past my shoulders now.  As I said before, I wonder now why I ever cut any of it.  If a man on his death bed could have all the time he spent shaving and cutting hair over his life, back, he'd have time to kiss his old lady and kids and go fishing again.

This sounds like it may be worth a try.  My only concern is where my beard brushes against the front of my shirt.  I wouldn't want a big oil stain on my chest.

[Lumber_Jack]

I use just plain Jojoba Oil I got from Whole Foods.  Its a nice conditioner but has not scent, which may be desirable or not.  I don't shampoo mine everyday either, usually every other day or two days.  I will use some condition only without shampoo, that seems to keep it from getting too dry. 

 

I like these guys too, not a Tennessee company but good fellers.

even with a beard that large, just a small amount the size of a nickel or less would be plenty for your entire beard.  like aftershave, just rub hands together and work into beard.  It will appear shiny at first, but will go away in a few mins

I would wanna smell them but I could definitely see myself going for the cedar scented.

[10-Ring]

Might have to give it a try, usually about the time I get  respectable beard going I cut it off because I'm tired of listening to the wife whine at that point.  I've got a pretty good amount of growth going now and I'm vowing to not cut it until we see 70+ degrees so I'm thinking it might get some decent growth.

Don't think I could stand the odor.

How do I keep the adjustable stock on my AR from pulling my beard?

Ive never had my beard feel oily, it absorbs fast. That includes working in 100+ weather doing construction and masonry I've never had it run out of my beard.

They make an unscented one.

Wear a shemagh? Lol or switch to a fixed stock. Heres the unscented one for you guys who don't like the odors. https://www.etsy.com/listing/174308569/beard-oil-unscented-one-ounce-handpoured?ref=sr_gallery_9&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery Tapatalk ate my spelling.

I started a beard before Christmas and have been looking for some beard oil to help with dry skin. Is that stuff sold in stores, or just online? My wife actually likes the beard.

Yep just eat Kentucky Fried Chicken original recipe once in awhile and make sure to wipe the fingers in the face hair as well. :)

Magpul ACS. Well worth the money. Doesn't yank hair.

Does this stuff work on your weird beard? I gotta get something to tame this beast.  Hi-Keeba! Ya!

[Murgatroy]

I have worn a beard for nearly twenty years. I wash it with face soap and shave it off once a year.

 

Other than that I keep it trimmed three seasons of the year and go mountain man in the winter.

 

I haven't ever kept any oil or used any fancy conditioner on it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I do know that last time I shaved it off my dog growled at me and my daughter refused to hug and kiss me goodnight for at least a week.

[quote name="gregintenn" post="1103074" timestamp="1391016840"]How do I keep the adjustable stock on my AR from pulling my beard?[/quote] I use a b5 stock to cure that. I did have a palmetto stock that did that I hated it so much I paid $60 to cure it. I just shaved 3 months of growth off and went back to just a goatee. I was using argon oil on mine. The beard absorbs it within about 15 mins. If you want to speed this up use a hair dryer (I know men should never use a dryer but its for your beard! ) Edited January 30, 2014 by sL1k

So I'm going to be "that guy" and bump this thread back up.  Spots, did you ever purchase the beard oil?  How has it been working out for you?  I grew my first beard in college probably around 7 or 8 years ago.  Then I got a job where beards were frowned upon and was clean shaven for a couple years.  Once I quite that job (best decision ever, don't ever work for anyone who doesn't like a beard but I digress) I grew it back after I started my next one.  I, for the last 3 years have had a "professional" job so I didn't want to go all mountain man.  I recently have taken a new position with an office job with the rail road here and since I don't have any client contact and its a freaking logistics rail road job, I have started to let my beard grown free!  I don't expect to be Duck Dynasty or anything but definitely, longer than I have ever grown before.  

 

So, I have found that my beard has started to grow OUT and get sorta puffy/scraggly.  It looks pretty good right after I get out of the shower (Chuck Norris like but shorter) after conditioning it, but I guess it dries out throughout the day (or i play with it too much) and starts to go all crazy on me.  I figure at some point, gravity will take effect and it wont be able to grow "out" but am wondering if beard oil will help soften it and keep it moisturized and less crazy looking?
