Yeah, but taking good care after washing will be important, too.
Buy a good brush (I have one by Irish beard company) to exfoliate your skin every couple days.

If all of that doesn't work, I found the English product page. Just try something like this, it might help you.

Best of luck and let me know if I can help you any further.

No problem - I am happy to help.
Ok. In my opinion you are combing too much through out the day. This can cause split ends and make existing split ends worse as well as break and pull hairs. Another thing to consider is the width between the teeth of your comb, if it is too fine then that could be an issue as well. When it comes to the health of your beard the only reason you should be combing after your get it conditioned and shaped after your shower is if it is unruly and you need to get it in line.
EDC Comb I use:

I would recommend a balm/butter with your oil to see if that provides any positive results.

As far as oil goes I make my own but Honest Amish is a great place to start. Make sure there isn't any silicone or petrolatum in your products.

Washing/Conditioning:
You might also want to look into "cowashing" if you are not familiar with what cowashing is it is simply using a beard softner/beard conditioner <same thing> once a day. Put it in in the shower and let it sit for 5 min. or so then rinse it out. You can leave some in if you like to help work with the oil and balm to keep it conditioned.
Be aware you can use too much of this stuff and have to wash it out to start all over. The goal is to be conditioned not wet looking.

Not a man, nor do I have a beard, but my SO does and I enjoy my hair care. Best suggestion I could make, if you're worried about breakage, is oil it at night and use a silk pillowcase or somehow finagle a silk scarf around your beard (I'm just the idea guy, you can figure out the logistics). The silk keeps it under control and keeps it from frizzing/breaking. Honestly, you might look into some of the African-American hair care methods. That's where I started when I began making beard oils/balms for my SO as his beard is pretty coarse and thick, and it's served me well so far.

Also, if you're worried about the hair ties damaging, use knotted or no crease hair ties. I find they're a bit easier on the hair.

Check out Outlaw Beard Products. Based out of Turner Valley Alberta. Very quick shipping and reasonable rates. The black one is a bit of a 'pepper' scent. The beige one is a kind of 'chocolate' scent. Not bad, but different than what I'm used to... I'd like to try the red one.
It's nice because shipping isn't over the top and it's in CDN dollars.

Mammoth is also amazing. The Devils Reserve is the best oil I've ever used, hands down.

Waiting on the dollar correction so I can get back to Honest Amish without breaking the bank.

Edit - I'm a dummy. You're looking for a brush... not oils/balms. I've purchased mine through Amazon.ca. This is a goodie

Yea I use I pretty good one myself, comes in handy especially if my beard is looking wild in the morning.

You should get an oil, wax, shampoo and a comb. I love the smell of this oil has a vanillay spicey smell that I love. This is a decent oil that doesn't smell like anything. If you wanna try a balm Amish Beard Balm is the one I use.



This and This are the two combs I have and use. Depending on what your mustache is might not need the smaller one. Scissors are nice to get rid of the crazy hairs.




Wax for me was the hardest to find a good one that didn't leave white stuff. Amish has one that I like and then I like This.




Any questions just ask!

Hello, I haven't heard of rice water to help promote hair growth on beards. I assume the nutrients in the rice oil provides vitamins and moisture for the skin and hair. It is probably just as good as putting on moisturizer.

However, over the years people have designed an Oil that is specific for beards. the reason any oil won't do is because oils such as almond are heavy and will leave you feeling greasy. On top of it, these heavy oils have a strong scent and even clog pores which can result in breakouts, ingrown hairs and allergies.

Though that is conventionally true of spray bottles in general, I have been reading lots of reviews for these olive oil misters and many of them get great reviews in regards to not clogging using olive oil which is notably heavier than any beard oil I've ever used personally.

One part of the experiment that is yet unresolved is the best mister to use. I am looking for a unit that:

• isn't huge
  
  
• isn't (too) expensive.
  
  
• doesn't firehose oil
  
  
• has decent reviews for not leaking.
  
  I stumbled across units like this one that might be cool for adjusting how much tea tree oil I want in my mixture.

I have both of these and I love them. My face smells like fresh cut cedar wood and my beard is full and soft. I only recently realized they sell these two things together.

As for a brush/comb, I've used boar hair brushes as well as wooden and plastic combs over the last 6 months of bearddom and don't really have a preference. I think that one will entirely depend on how thick/wiry/savage your facial hair is.

Edit: This looks promising too. I have the Grandpas Pine Tar Soap and it smells almost exactly like campfire smoke. It's fantastic. I haven't used Grave Before Shave products yet, but I hear good things about them

I just got a Bass boar bristle brush in the mail today and so far I'm thoroughly enjoying it. Quality seems pretty great, so far.

I'll try linking it when I'm not on mobile...

I love my wahl lithium ion stainless steel trimmer.

https://www.amazon.com/Wahl-Stainless-Rechargeable-Professionals-9818/dp/B0058SY1XQ

I’ve had it for 2 years and it’s been hassle free. The battery on it lasts seriously long. I trim my neckline and beard every other day and only charge once a month.

My one annoyance with it is that the comb sizes go 3mm, 6mm, 10mm, 13mm, 17mm, 20mm. The jump from 6mm to 10mm is a pretty noticeable change and I wish it had an 8mm.

I use castille soap as a base because it doesn't have all the additives other shampoos have. I've even found several "beard shampoos" have stuff in them that are really bad for your beard. Because I can't be bothered making my own castille soap (yet) I used Dr. Bronner's.
https://www.amazon.com/Dr-Bronners-Pure-Castile-Liquid/dp/B000HK1OOY

It's unscented unlike a lot of other castille soaps I've tried, which is really nice because then you can add your own scent. I use essential oils to create a slightly sweet, earthy mint smell. Also the baby soap variety is especially mild, which is great for your beard.

This stuff will solve all your beard management problems. Honest Amish Beard Balm Leave-in Conditioner

When I first heard of this stuff, I was unsure how it was going to work and hesitant to take the leap and make the purchase, but I'm glad I did.

Here's what you do.

You take a dab of this stuff, rub it between your hands till it turns into an oil like substance, and apply it to a damp beard (I usually use it after I shower). Now, massage it into your beard, then take the time to get yourself styled to your liking.

After all that, Your application site is going to feel a little oily/greasy for about 30-45min till it's absorbed, but once it is absorbed. Your beard should hold its shape. If it doesn't, they also offer a more aggressive option.

Later on down the road, your beard will be trained to the point that you wont need to apply the stuff as often.

Botanical Skin Works. The label started peeling off last month, so I pulled it off and threw it out. It may have had a date I never noticed, but now I can't check. Regardless, I regret not buying from a small-batch operation, like a lot of the one-man-bands that hang around here.

I have, what I believe, is the previous model to this one. Solid chrome. I've not had any issues with it. Charges in about 20 minutes and is good for month or so. Granted I don't use it daily. And mostly to trim around the edges of my ears and back neck. I use scissors on the beard.

Edit; Found the one I have. Just remember to not get it wet and buy a bottle of clipper oil that closes well and toss that little bottle that comes with the clippers. Oh, and you want a trimmer that you can purchase and/or sharpen the blades.

Yup. All of this. Great advice!

Also, people swear by this and can keep it under control:
