This question is obviously for men with facial hair. How do you wash your beard and/or mustache? I’ve always just used the same soap I use to wash the rest of my face, but some would say it’s hair so you should use shampoo. I see there are also “beard wash” products that are supposedly specially formulated for beards.
I picked some other product, because I don’t use the same soap I wash the rest of my body with. Rather, I wash my beard with the same facial cleanser product I use on the rest of my face. But I keep my beard trimmed rather short, so washing my beard is pretty much the same as washing my face.
Facial cleansing bar, for the most part. I think I’ve tried shampoo in the past, maybe when I had some extreme dryness or something, and that experiment was short-lived.
Also, I have a goatee; it’s not really all that neatly trimmed, but it’s also not a big, bushy, luxuriant beard. If I had a long flowing beard, I’d probably use shampoo or something else.
Use Old Spice 3-in-1, covers everything, much like Carlin - if I’m dirty I don’t wash, brush the 3 important areas - hair, teeth, asshole. To save time, I use the same brush on all 3
Besides, whatever I use under my nose I can smell for a while afterwards… I don’t want to walk around thinking “Yum, Dial Deodorant Soap…ewww…”.
I’d much rather be enjoying Ma McGillicuddy’s Papaya/Basil Mane Concoction.
My beard is pretty short now, maybe a quarter to a half inch long…longer if I haven’t trimmed it in a while, shorter if I have. I just use facewash. Back when it was long, like closer to 5 or 6 inches, I typically used actual beard shampoo once or twice a week and the rest of the time just let my regular shampoo and facewash run through it.
I have always just soaped it up as I soap up my face, no matter how long it gest. Although semi-recently when testing out new soaps because of some unrelated skin irritation, ended up on Dove + For men bar soap, partly because the irritation went away, and partly because my beard felt cleaner.
