Why Is My Beard Itchy? Beard Itch Causes and Solutions

 

Beard itch often begins with the skin beneath the beard. Dryness, over-washing, hot water, product buildup and sensitivity to grooming ingredients can all contribute.

 

Try This:

Wash less frequently if your skin feels tight or stripped afterwards. Use warm rather than very hot water and make sure your cleanser is actually formulated for beard hair and facial skin.If the itching started after introducing a new product, stop using it temporarily and see whether things settle.

 

Why We Do It Differently:

A beard product spends much of its time against the skin beneath your beard, so we formulate with that skin in mind.We don't use synthetic fragrance. Products labelled simply as parfum or fragrance can contain blends selected from thousands of fragrance ingredients, without every component necessarily being individually disclosed on the label.Instead, our scents are created using pure essential oils, alongside carefully selected natural and organic oils.Essential oils can still cause sensitivity in some people, so if you know you react to a particular essential oil or fragrance allergen, always check the ingredients.

 

Product Solution:

Start with Highland Beard Oil. Massage a few drops through the beard and into the skin beneath to condition both facial hair and skin and help maintain moisture.

For longer, very dry or coarse beards, add Beard Butter for deeper conditioning and softness.

If your beard has a buildup of balm, butter, wax or other products, use Beard Wash as an occasional thorough cleanse. It is formulated specifically for beard hair and designed to remove accumulated product and leave the beard clean, rather than being used automatically every day.
