Description
Today Eric is talking about BEARD BALM. We often get asked the differences between our Utility Balm and Styling Balm. Both are great products, but are designed for different purposes. Listen up as Eric goes into detail about what exactly this awesome stuff is, and how it is used.

[@earlgreybeard]

That was really clear, and really helpful. Thanks. My current pattern is to use oil twice per day, and then styling balm as needed, when I particularly want to look smart. Which fits in very nicely with what you said on the video. Perfect.

[@AshTheDuke]

Is it ok to use it after shaving

[@earlgreybeard]

@@AshTheDuke Is that a clean shave, or just a clean up around the beard? If you are clean shaving, balm might be a bit sticky, depending on which you are using. Styling balm in particular is used to hold your beard in place to some extent.

Thanks for the advice Eric. I'm attempting to grow my beard for a year and right now it's been 2 months since my beard has growed and I've never used beard balm before and I'm glad I saw this. Thanks again for these tutorials and I plan to shave my beard off when the new decade comes.

[@ThePortal101]

It's funny I had this $25 beard balm from The Art of Shaving, it worked great. Then I found a moisturizing balm at Trader Joe's for $3.99. It lasts longer and works better on my beard.

[@gammondog]

That's what experimentation will do for you. Well done!

Style balm = pomade basically Utility balm is =lotion for beard

[@kruppert54]

Thanks Eric for the clear explanation of the benefits of the balm. Had to watch and save this because I was distracted by your great Mustache. A good model for mine.

[@Big_Chungus96]

I've used balms over butters and oils for a few years now and I feel like my beard is way healthier and less itchy. Of course using a good shampoo and conditioner is always the cornerstone of good beard health but a balm will give you much more moisture and hold overall in my opinion.

[@Holden_McHock]

From your experience do you need to wash out a balm everyday or is it ok to leave it in for longer if you want to (like a beard oil)?

[@Big_Chungus96]

@user-kk2ue1ns4g I usually shower every other day to let to get the dirt, dead skin, and dust out of my beard and let the natural oils come back in my skin, I really like SheaMoisture balm post shower when my beard is towel dried, then on the off day I use the same brand of beard oil in the morning and once at night. Even on the off day my beard still feels clean and moisturized.

[@busdrivingpony3636]

Thank god for this video! My husband is attempting to grow his beard out and we had no clue what to do with the beard balm.

[@rudymartell6316]

thanks sir good information for new beards men like me

[@DudeBeastie]

Hi bro, the info you gave here is just what I was looking for. Have a 4 month beard & will keep it, by little girl gave me the name ShadeBeard, so I decided to use it, our little one giving a nickname was motivating & my wife says she likes the gray in it. Good or bad beard day, I’m going to keep it as an evolution of myself & see what length etc., works best for me. I wanted to say thanks. I’ll keep watching. 🤙🏼🙏🏼

[@k.e.stanley6805]

I watched your Beard Oil vs. Beard Balm Published on Jul 23, 2015. In that video you said you CAN use both oil and balm together - "absolutely" to be exact. But in this video you say to use one or the other, not both "it's not necessary to use both." Being new to the bearded community just want to be sure I'm doing what is best. Thanks - ks

[@Beardbrand]

You can definitely use both together. The oil will help keep the hair healthy and balm will help hold your style. - Jack

[@k.e.stanley6805]

Thanks Jack, I was hoping that was the case!

[@AGKassem]

Does the conditioner help grow thicker hair (to some degree)?

[@kennethyoung4892]

Can you use all 3 products at the same time? Beard oil. Beard butter and Beard balm???

[@pocketrudeboy]

eric rules, always informative and talks about beards in general unlike carlos Costa who just talks about himself...

[@Beardbrand]

Carlos is a great guy with a different style. He's a great dude and is really appreciative and humble. I'd say English not being his first language my hinder him a bit with how he talks, but he's an absolute boss when it comes to beard care. I'm very grateful for your positive comments about my style.

[@swisstrader]

I’m a bit of an older dude and just started growing out my beard for the past 3-4 wks. Not sure I want to grow one of these massive beards, so my question is whether or not I even need a balm?

[@oldwest517]

I like balm in the morning -- rub the excess into my neck and throat skin. I need a touch of beard wax to control the wild hairs and make it look smooth. And then I like some beard oil in the evening when things are feeling a little dry again. I use pretty much all Honest Amish products except for my moustache wax -- I like Firehouse for that. At some point I want to try some Beard Brand products, but I'm a sucker for the convenience of Amazon, I must confess, so I keep putting it off... Great videos on this channel.

[@Beardbrand]

Hey man, our products are up on Amazon as well. No reason not to give it a shot! :D

[@oldwest517]

[@jasonbader431]

Im a dishwasher for a café, how use beard oil and beard balm after my shower. Given my beard gets water, junk and 180 degree steam, how often around I be using beard balm and oil.

[@basedporcupine]

My beard is dry and course, I would like to moisturize it and soften it up but not sure what to use. I have some beard balm but it doesn't seem to be doing anything

[@radostinkolev559]

Nice video Eric, it's very kind of you to spread education around ! I have samples of both Utility and Styling balm. I'm very satisfied with the utility balm : a job done, the scent of Old Money - just perfect. About the styling balm I would say that as a person who rocks a very thick and straight head and facial hair this medium hold doesn't really manage to do the job for me. Actually I don't see any difference from the hold the utility balm gives to my beard. When it comes to my head hair which I like spiky and straight up to the sky with matte effect on it. This kind of appearance differs a lot from the features of the styling balm from Beardbrand. That's the reason I drop this comment here, to make a suggestion for a new hair style product with a stronger hold and matte look. Perhaps a pomade or a texture paste. I can already smell my favourite fresh and crispy Tea Tree scent from here. Thank you Beardbrand ! Keep on growing ! Kind regards, Radostin Kolev

[@Casatti2023]

Beardbrand thanks Eric I will by some one from the web page.

[@docback63]

I purchased some spiced citrus beard balm but it's so stiff and hard I quit trying to use it. It was too sticky, too stiff, I don't know if the stuff they sent me was old or what but I don't care for it. I do like the beard oil from you guys , that works good for me.

[@ThePortal101]

There's a trick I learned with the harder beard balm. I turn my thumbnail over to "scoop" out the amount of product I want - this softens it up. Then it's warmed up and ready to rub into hands, then beard.

[@Beardbrand]

Was it the utility balm or styling balm? Shoot Keith an email at [e-mail] and we can work through it. Utility Balm is sensitive to temperatures so if it's cold out it'll be harder and if it's warmer out it'll be softer. If you aren't happy with it, we'd be happy to exchange it for another product free of charge.

[@benkuntz8113]

Eric, your hair looks great in this video. 👍

[@Existential_Chris]

Do you trim the flyaway regularly or just let it all grow? I recently did the trimmer along the outer edge method and love how it looks but hoping I'm not stunting the length...

[@ChrispyChris3]

Hairs will get longer and fall eventually, I personally wouldn't touch the fly aways besides trying to deal with keeping them down, because you are stunting some growth.

[@albertcastro409]

Like the shirt you have ! Do you sell hats with logo ?

[@JustinSalazarIBG]

Great video my man!

[@JohnBrown-ug5ty]

I'm working to grow out my mustache. Right now is the time when it's growing over my lips so it's rather irritating. Do I keep combing it over my lip until it's long enough? How do you eat with your mustache the way it is? Also, my beard seems to have reached a "terminal" length. I'm thinking I haven't cared for it in the way that I should so should I cut it short and start over? Thoughts?

[@JohnBrown-ug5ty]

Arslan Chaudhry thanks for the help. So the new hair that grows in will start growing longer?

[@mitcheldaybreak5486]

Just wonderin', How many days is your new beard now at?

[@andrewmeyer90]

Great video. I’ve just started growing one for the first time. It’ll be two weeks tomorrow. How soon should I start using balm or how early is it effective? (Already use beard oil). Thanks!

[@Beardbrand]

[@MC0Nike]

Very useful! TY!

[@rancherhicks]

Thanks for the tips. Some guys I know don't use anything and that may explain why they look scruffy. Too, there are a lot of products out there. Still trying to figure out what is best. Got a beard "butter" but it's not softening and my beard wakes me up at night cuz it's itchy. Gotta fix that. Too, I color my hair and beard. Just for Men, any advice there?

[@Beardbrand]

If your beard is still really itchy and not soft, you might want to try out something like Beard Softener. (www.beardbrand.com/collections/beard-wash-softener-sets) As far as the coloring, Just for Men works. But don't be afraid to embrace the colors in your beard and hair, we're all about working with your body's natural chemistry. - Jack

[@peterpepo9232]

Hey Eric @Beardbrand, thanks for another informative video. I've started with Beard OIL during my first month to lower the itch. Now after 1.5 months my beard feels more like "hair" - not so scruffy, dead dry, but it's curly. I'm thinking of taming it. Can I use Hair Styling Paste on my beard instead of Styling balm? Especially my mustache is quite coarse growing. Therefore I think it would be better to comb it to the sides than to trim above the lip.

[@justinbarone57]

So Eric I am confused, I have a short beard yet I have a lot of flyaways in, and I find myself, after I've applied the beard balm that I use,that it still happens so what would you recommend me using a styling bomb? Or the utility bomb? This will be the first time ordering from your company

[@Beardbrand]

Beardbrand styling balm will offer significantly more hold that the Utility Balm does. However, it doesn't offer the same moisturizing qualities. Some people combine the oil and the styling balm and have had good results from that. -Parker

[@Redseptember21]

How do I avoid tangled beard?

[@Rashaadthegr8]

So you wash it, condition it, but after that I am lost. do you put on balm, wax and then oil in that order or what order?

[@Beardbrand]

I will first use either a beard oil or utility balm. You don't need to use both. After that I'll use either a mustache wax or styling balm to style it to my preference and needs.

[@The_Zombieslayer]

Can u use the beard balm to style your mustache or do i need to keep using wax and oil in just wondering because I have beard balm and my wax I use is really expensive? ???

[@jadersonfelizardo]

started out using beardbrand beard oil with wash and softner. this weekend just received my balm! love your products and videos you guys are awsome! i would like to get one of those shirt too if were to sell them on your website #keepongrowing

[@Venitius]

I bought the gold line balms including Temple Smoke, Four Vices and Old Money. I must say that the first 2 scents are really faint. It's quite a shame that it disappears so quickly. It seems to hold a bit better and longer on my skin though. I wonder if I should have gone for the oils instead. Some reviews report that the scent is different between the balm and oil. I understand that sometimes people want to put something more subtle in their beard, but in this case it's almost like blank slate after a few minutes. Gold Money is however great. I must say that from all the balm I tried, BeardBrand balms have the best texture and best conditioning properties. Others brand I tried were too heavy on the beard.

[@jasonvoorhees8899]
