Whilst women are renowned for taking time and effort on their beauty regime, men mustn’t be forgotten. With male grooming becoming increasingly popular, it’s time for the gents to nail their grooming routine this summer – particular those looking after a beard during the heat!
But for those not too sure how to look after their hair popular UK hair salon chain, Supercuts, are here to dish out the advice when it comes to beard care.
Creative Director, Kieron Fowles, shares some of his top tips.
Training tips – while a regular trim will maintain the shape, you can also do your bit to manage the hair growth too. Often as the hairs come through and continue to grow, they can become unruly and sprout in different directions. Using a comb or beard brush daily will tackle stubborn hairs, training them to grown downwards.
Wash wisely – it may seem pretty obvious but cleaning your beard is just as important as washing the hair on your head. We would advise to wash your beard twice a week. Washing more often can actually dry the hair follicles out as your beard needs to retain some of the natural oils to stay healthy. Try using a mild soap and avoid using face wash on your beard if you can as these can over dry your facial hair.
Serums for your stubble – there are a number of products on the market that will allow you to take good care of your beard at home. If you find it hard to tame your beard, TIGI Lion Tamer Beard & Hair Balm has been designed to improve the manageability of beard, while also softening and nourishing the skin beneath. What’s more, you can use it for your hair too.
Mandatory maintenance – looking after your beard at home is all well and good, but taking regular trips to your local salon for a quick trim will ensure your stubble stays healthy. At Supercuts, we offer our unique Men’s Grooming Package which involves a hair-cut, beard and eyebrow tidy and hot towel treatment with soothing tea tree oil to leave your skin and beard feeling refreshed. For just £14.95 and no appointment necessary, it’s no wonder it’s one of our customers’ more popular choices.
