Beard Companies DON'T WANT YOU To know about this??

[@FerociousBeardCompany]

As an example, Our tattoo healing balm is similar to our beard balm but we took out the lanolin (which is bad for tattoos) and replaced with Vitamin E (which is great for tattoos). To your point, many of these products out there are very similar to each other. But try selling beard balm to most women and they’ll just walk by. Those who pay attention have no problem buying though. Nice video.

I noticed this a while back, and yes I'll totally agree. The hardest part is finding a body butter w/ healthy beard ingredients and a desirable smell. I tend to look for something unscented. Another helpful tip is to look for vegan butters. These tend to have the ingredients more easily spelled out.

[@obeconoberougle9497]

I would assume the number of ounces is probably referring to the volume of the container and not the weight.

[@Clintonmilmine]

I agree, probably fluid ounces.

[@jeffsykes4589]

Lotions are considered fluids. Check the label again and make sure it says fl oz. If it is, then because you showed the name, you've opened yourself up for ... consequences If not, then the company is making an illegal statement

[@jamesboxold9671]

I was going to say the same thing volume not weight

[@pcolasoldier31]

I was going to say, volume vs weight isn't always the same. Especially if it is whipped butter, it will have more air incorporated into it making 8oz as light as 4oz.

LOVE this video. Competition in the marketplace is HEALTHY for all parties. Not hating on beard companies but it’s about time this bubble burst a bit as I have thought their prices are a bit crazy for the actual products they are selling.

[@andrewlong3296]

I’m glad beard companies are hustling and grinding but their margins are insane. One of the most well known and largest companies admitted to margins of over 90% on their products. Think about that folks...you don’t need to be a math genius or a business MBA to figure that out. If people are willing to spend those dollars then great for the companies, but well educated customers is where it’s at. Hold the market and vendors accountable...no reason to be paying as much of your hard earned money as you are.

[@williambrecheen7366]

Right on, brother. I've been making my own oil, balm ,and butter, because I'm not a fan of paying a markup when it's not neccessary, but in a way feel as if I'm not contributing to the "beard community " by doing so. Unless of course the community also supports buying raw butters and oils from solid vendors to make your own (and they should) If the ingredients are the same, why not....buy beard butter, body butter, or make your own.

[@TarantulamanNC]

Templar William what community? Don’t get me wrong we all have fun talking and learning from one another etc etc. But the companies are business men like everyone else. If anything wouldn’t they be taking advantage of the beard community with 90% mark up?!?!? That’s outrageous.

[@rickmelcher6845]

When comparing these weights, I believe the whipped versions are by volume, not weight. I am a pharmacist that compounds prescriptions, i.e., creams, ointments, etc. It is misleading I know, but as the old adage says (and not trying to be a smart-*ss) “read the fine print”. GREAT video though! I love all your videos. You have tons of great info..and you’re funnier than hell! Thanks 😎

[@Bdacht]

Great info bro. Definitely tons of similarities. Boils down to branding and marketing. So definitely a good find. Quite similar to my beard journey in the beginning, all I used was hair products and carrier oils in general. Coconut oil, olive oil etc. so it’s not surprising to me that body butter have some of the same ingredients as beard butter. 🍻💯👊🏽

I love the reviews and products , I have two favorites the grave before shave cigar and vanilla balm and the Detroit corktown butter and the scotch Porter conditioner also bought some brio beardscapes. I've been growing a beard since Thanksgiving and already just from these products , I have people saying "dang nice beard" keep up the AMAZING videos and I binge watch you all day with earbuds at work. Great Work! And I dare my job to tell me to shave lmao!

[@chrluc]

Scuba, I want to say that I appreciate your videos, and information you provide in them. You always provide great content and you do it in way that that is super chill. Lately I’ve noticed that some of the other beard channels have become very egocentric. They provide great information, but they do it in a way that can be very off putting. Thanks for being down to earth, and keeping it all perspective.

[@G_lew]

Volume dictates price as well. Some companies making thousands of one product can afford to offer a lower price. Those making much much less can not. It’s fairly simple

You can get a BIG bottle of shampoo for a few bucks to maybe $10 for 90% of them. You could also pay $15 for a tiny bottle of “beard” shampoo. It’s crazy men that are driving up the prices. Don’t buy these high priced products and we could all enjoy better priced products.

[@carefreetraveler2280]

Figured this out over a year ago before the beard butter craze hit. Health food store has a butter that is all purpose with NO beeswax and a soft “neutral cacoa” scent. I spread it all over. Body head and hair, legs and feet, balls and butt. Literally slather it on every part of my body after shower daily. And of course my beard cause it’s butter!! 13 bucks for 2.3 ounces and i can go to the store and get it any day without ordering it. If I want to get a scent I take the butter and mix my beard oil with it and it works just fine. If I had not found this and figured it out based on Ingredients i for sure would have already spent 300 bucks on “beard” butter trying to find the perfect one for me. I haven’t even had the need to go to a woman’s Beauty store to try and find others.

[@dbeardedman.8133]

Interesting but I just love the "manlyness" of buying real Beard butter. I think the ounce thing is referring to volume more than weight.

[@lukeedwards-sparsholtt1587]

Interesting

[@katzsteel]

Hah, yeah. I was thinking, is he joking? Thought it was by weight? Hmmmm someone missed a few classes.

[@thebeardedmackgrooming]

FDA says it goes by net weight, not volume. Basically, if the label says 4oz then legally there should be 4oz of product by weight.

[@devinmunoz3424]

"Unicorn period blood". Quote of the day!🤛

[@funkdaddy3.0]

Thanks for the video. Just wondering. Has your mom told you about me yet?

[@ckneasel]

The weights are a volume measurement, so they won’t be the same as mass weight... The density is what makes it heavier or lighter...

[@JonathanGrandt]

Beard companies don’t want you to know: beard Oil actually was always for your beard. They say it isn’t so you will buy more product.

[@ChaseWalling]

The glimmer goddess one fucking killed me. Good info though! Definitely going to try this shit out.

[@thomashelms3076]

Thanks for the video. The butters are measured in volume, not weight. But, if a large one weighs less or about the same as a small one, it has more air whipped into it. So, you’re paying for air.

[@NebakinezaOG]

This video proves that the US is miles behind the rest of the world when it comes to standardising units. Use g/ml like everyone else!

[@therustyaxe]

I was going to order two 4 oz. containers from Royalbeardsmen at $22.95? That equals $45.90. It really pisses me off that they put their free shipping at $50! To get free shipping I have to add at least a key chain. Smart marketing but playing me for a fool? Not anymore! So I'm basically only paying for a scent? I'm kinda pissed off. Too bad I have a bunch of this Scotch Porter shampoo and conditioner to. I purchased a few containers on sale last year. Honestly it sucks. Thank God I didn't buy their butter. So my understanding is that I have officially been played for three years? And Beardbrand can suck my ass as well, sooooo overpriced but now the white line is in Walmart? Not a good way to start off 2020 for any of you "beard companies" and I use that term lightly. So I have been tricked for over 3 years? Whats next? Is all my beard shampoo and conditioner a scam too? The hell is wrong with this industry? The most ironic thing is that I purchased the Aberlite Max based off a review from you (it kicks ass) and found that some Argon heat protectors have the same qualities as the beard oils! This butter thing pisses me off. I'm not ordering from Royal as I had planned (yea all the butters are back in stock) NOPE. Now I don't know who to trust. Thanks for opening up my eyes and help closing my wallet. When I had hair past my ass TWICE in my life I used Mane 'n Tail. I might just go back to that. Why the hell do I pay so much for a tiny bottles of shampoo and conditioner? It's all bullshit. After this video I'm done.

[@Ravenfields]

Yes, it's not a secret that men can also use products designed for women :D if product has a word "beard" in it, expect to pay 20 euros extra. I'm making my own beard oils and sea salt sprays. No need to spend my money for overprized beard products all the time. Just every now and then :)

[@30DayReviews]

I had a hunch that there were products in the female line of products that was very close if not the same. thanks for the info. I'm guessing just due to the sents and not knowing where to look in the female isles lol most guys won't go to the cheaper products. great info thanks!

[@diqueanibal]

Thats why a company like Shea Moisture is able to sell the beard products cheaper than most, because all the lines for natural hair, they have a huge following and the benefits of a big company and therefore materials are bound to be cheaper, the beard companies that are big, leave the prices higher since the market decides on it, I've been on this for a while, thanks for sharing.

Great video. Volume vs weight is what your finding there. Also add in a whipped butter essentially aerated would contain less product then a pour butter in both weight and volume. Your dead on those same same for ingredients, I think the edge goes to beard butter because of scent variations for men. For your penny pincher, excellent idea on amazon.
