With great beard come great responsibilities.

As winters are approaching, give yourself a chance to grow a sturdy and dense beard. Here are five easy tips to give you the best results

Let it grow: When you start your beard journey just let it grow at its own pace and in any direction it wants for the first month. Nothing goes smoothly when you start doing something new, so why this discrimination with your beard. Don’t trim or shave it when it starts to get messy, just style your way through it. Patience is the key to success for growing a strong and thick beard.

Consume protein, vitamins, and minerals: It is scientifically proven that to grow a sturdy and bushy beard, you need to feed yourself with lots of protein, vitamins, and minerals. Food like egg white, organic fish, dairy products, beans, fruits and all nuts and seeds are the best nutritional suppliers for a healthy beard. A healthy diet will automatically boost your testosterone level, providing the length to your beard.

Nurture it:

Don’t hurt your skin by scratching it over and over again or by frequently applying razor in the aim of growing a strong and luscious beard. Use necessary creams and oils to keep your skin and beard hydrated. And the best time to oil your beard is right after a face wash; massage the oil gently in your beard. All your love and affection towards your beard should be a regular routine. The more you pamper it, the denser it becomes and vice-versa.

Practice headstand: If you work out and even if you don’t, inculcate the practice of doing a headstand for 5-10 minutes daily. It will increase the blood flow to your head and scalp which helps transfer extra-nutrients and oxygen to your head. Another important factor is it reduces stress, one of the major reasons of irregular facial growth. So keeping the ‘age excuse’ aside start to practice headstand every day religiously and see the change.

Play with it: Understand your beard type and style. And after some growth of facial hair experiment new product and styles on your bushy beard. This will help you to know what is perfect for your hair that will help them become stronger and thicker. Try French-Cut or Bandholz beard style to check which style suits you best. Then check whether coconut oil suits you or wax does.
