What Is Beard Dandruff?
Do you have flakes in your beard? You probably have beard dandruff. Beard dandruff is a lot like scalp dandruff. It’s commonly associated with dry skin and can cause itching, and itching your beard too much can lead to painful scabs.
What Causes Beard Dandruff?
The main causes of beard dandruff are dry skin and seborrheic dermatitis. Your skin can dry out due to several factors. Whether the weather is changing or you’re using harsh soaps, you can often prevent dry skin and beard dandruff with a few good beard care products in your arsenal.
Fungal infections are less common, but they do happen. Malassezia is a type of fungus that grows in oily areas like your scalp and beard. This can cause an inflammatory response, causing excess skin cells to grow and flake off.
How To Prevent Beard Dandruff
Now that you know what beard dandruff is and where it comes from, we’ll give you the lowdown on proper beardruff prevention.
Use Beard Wash
A regular wash routine for your beard is one of the best ways to combat beard dandruff. Using the right beard wash is crucial in ensuring a healthy beard. Many beard washes sold in drugstores contain abrasive ingredients. BLESSED MEN Refreshing Beard Wash is formulated with natural oils and herbs to breathe life back into your beard.
Add Some Hydration
More often than not, beard dandruff is a cry for some hydration. Quench your parched beard with beard butter. Beard butter hydrates, soothes, and conditions your beard back to its former glory—and leaves it feeling soft and irresistible, too. Our Conditioning Beard Butter is lightweight and designed to nourish dry, itchy skin—without harsh chemicals.
Remember the Beard Oil
The not-so-secret ingredient to a great beard is oil. Our Nourishing Beard Oil repairs, restores, and strengthens your beard back to its lustrous self. Relieve beard dryness, promote beard growth, and even reduce the risk of hair loss with a dime-sized amount of beard oil one to two times a day.
Brush Like a Boss
