Want to get your beard in tournament-winning shape? Here’s how.
Summary
Start with a good clean
Just like playing basketball, you gotta train to become an expert. So get your beard into shape with a regular clean. Our Beard Shampoo will properly clean the hairs and make them soft, giving you an excellent base to work with.
Lather the shampoo on your wet beard using circular motions. This helps to thoroughly clean the hair, removing impurities and excess oil. After massaging for a minute, rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Gently dry your beard with a clean towel (you know we do a Hand Towel, right?), patting to avoid irritation.
Exfoliate Once or Twice a Week
Regular exfoliation once or twice a week, helps unclog pores and prevent ingrown hair. It also keeps the skin under your beard flake-free. It’s your next step to a beautiful beard worthy of a basketball legend.
Start by wetting your beard, then massage in our Gentle Face Scrub. You can mix it with a little Beard Shampoo to make the scrub more liquid and easier to work between the hairs. Take your time and really get all the contours of your face under your beard, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
Get some shine and softness with Beard Oil
To have a beard as epic as LeBron’s, you still need something: beard oil! Pick a scent that suits how you’re feeling that morning. Classic Patchouli & Cedar is great for everyday. Fresh Lemon & Mint is great for weekends! We reckon smoky Tobacco & Vanilla would be LeBron’s vibe. The choice is yours.
Pour a few drops of oil into your hand. Rub your palms together to warm the oil and apply it by gently massaging into your beard. This will nourish and soften the hairs, making them shiny without the greasy feeling.
Regularly Brush and Trim
It’s a fact of life that beards grow every day, so you need to keep on top of this with 2 essential tools.
First up, the Beard Brush. Train your beard with it daily for a few minutes. It will detangle and discipline your beard without damaging the hairs - useful especially if you decide to go for a longer style like Captain Lemerica.
Lastly, get yourself a good beard trimmer. This means you can keep on top of stray hairs and keep your beard the length you like it without weekly trips to your barber - they get expensive, even on a baller’s salary! Ideally, find one with adjustable grades so you can choose the length, or trim your beard using a comb - this will stop you from cutting an unsightly hole in your beard!
Et voila, you’ve got the beard. Now go shoot some hoops!
