What Are The Benefits of Using Beard Oil?
Good news, beards are making a comeback! Wooo! But, it’s not all fun and games. These symbols of style and masculinity require more than just letting it all grow wild if you want to rock the best beard possible. Enter beard oil, a grooming essential that every bearded person from here to Timbuktu should have in their arsenal.
In this short and sweet blog article, we’re going to be talking about the benefits of using oil, different types of oils, and what to look for when you’re looking for the best oil for your beard in particular.
So, let’s dive in.
The Benefits of Using Beard Oil
1. Moisturizes the Skin and Beard
Beard oil was originally designed to hydrate the beard hairs and the skin underneath, and, by doing so, reduce itchiness, flaking, and dryness all in one go.
Reducing these symptoms is crucial to ensuring your beard is comfy and an overall joy to have and maintain in the first place! The moisturizing properties of these beard-specific oils help soften beard hair, also improving the elasticity and health of your beard overall.
2. Beard Oil Reduces Beard Itch and Dandruff
Every single man out there who attempts to grow a beard deals with beard itch and flakiness at some point, that is, unless they are avid beard oil users from day 1.
Dry skin can cause dandruff from your beard (also known as “beardruff”). Oils help alleviate these issues by moisturizing the skin below the beard as well as the beard itself.
3. Beard Oil Promotes Healthy Beard Growth
High quality beard oils contain mainly natural ingredients that encourage the growth of healthy beard hairs. Some of these ingredients to look for include jojoba oil, argan oil, vitamin E, babassu oil, and many more.
Regular use of oil helps prevent split ends and tangles caused by dryness, and in doing so, help promote longer and fuller beards free from premature shedding.
4. Adds Shine and Softness
Not only does beard oil help make your beard feel softer and more comfortable, it also adds to the aesthetic of your beard as well! Seriously.
Well-groomed beards look vibrant and healthy, and good oils add a natural shine without causing the beard to look or feel greasy. Nobody likes a greasy beard.
5. Beard Oil Prevents Split Ends and Breakage
Beard hairs, perhaps even more so than the hair on your head, suffer from split ends and breakage. It’s just the nature of the game.
Beard oil helps keep your beard hair hydrated and strong, reducing the risk of split ends and breakage overall by improving beard elasticity. This results in a healthier and more robust beard.
6. Enhances Fragrance
Many beard oils are infused with natural essential oils that provide a pleasant scent. This not only keeps your beard smelling great throughout the day but also offers aromatherapeutic benefits.
Not all oils are made the same! Some are made without fragrance, but some include fragrances that can add another level of depth to your beard grooming.
Look for oils with natural fragrances often resulting from essential oils. These are going to be more natural, healthy, and most likely pleasant fragrances that give off a refreshing scent without being too overbearing.
For example, Volt’s beard oil comes in drift, outback, and two-peaks scents. Drift is airy, beachy, and floral, outback is woodsy, leathery, and mossy, and two-peaks is like camping in the pine-tree mountains.
Why Volt Grooming’s Beard Oil is the Best Choice
Now that you’ve heard why beard oil is a necessity for any of you bearded brothers out there, let’s talk a bit about why Volt’s beard oil stands out from the crowd and why it is definitely worth a try.
1. High-Quality Natural Ingredients
Yeah yeah, blah blah, natural ingredients. Most beard oil companies have natural ingredients in their oils. But, how many companies out there use ONLY natural and organic ingredients, are preservative-free, and can be used on skin? Not many.
2. Lightweight and Non-Greasy Formula
Here’s the thing we’ve discovered when doing our own research before creating Volt’s beard & skin oil. Men out there HATE thick greasy beard oils, and we do too.
We’ve tried many of them, and unfortunately, thicker oils are slow-to-absorb, meaning they tend to weigh down and cause a beard to feel heavy, greasy, and sticky. Not good.
With Volt, we formulated an oil that is blended with lighter oils that go to work fast and absorb quickly.
This way, your beard gets softer faster, and stays softer for longer because there is no chance the oil is rubbed off or dries on the surface of the beard hairs before it can absorb.
3. Pleasant and Long-Lasting Scent
Volt’s scented beard oils last for hours without the fragrance being overbearing.
This is because the oil is absorbed by the beard hair and, as the beard hair slowly dries before requiring more oil, the fragrance evaporates with it. allowing it to be light, but long-lasting.
Whether you prefer a woody, citrusy, or spicy aroma, Volt Grooming has a scent that will complement your style.
4. Ethically Sourced and Cruelty-Free
Although this isn’t usually a problem with beard oils out there, it’s still worth mentioning that everything we do here at Volt is ethical and cruelty-free. We use sustainably sourced ingredients, packaging, and our products are never tested on animals.
5. Positive Customer Reviews
If you want to know how good something is, take the advice from people who use it. Volt’s beard oil is one of the top rated beard oils out there due to it’s quick absorption time, quality ingredients, and beard-softening abilities.
Conclusion
Overall, incorporating any beard & skin oil into your grooming routine is a necessary step to benefiting the health and wellness of your facial hair.
Whether you aim to reduce itchiness, irritation, redness, or just want to add some softness, comfort, and shine to your beard, a good oil is going to be right for you.
And when it comes to finding the right beard oil out there, we’d encourage you to give Volt a try! We have a 100% satisfaction guarantee because, after all, if we wouldn’t use it and love it, we wouldn’t expect you to either.
