Men’s Grooming: Tips To Keep Your Beard Clean And Styled In Summer Heat And Humidity

Men’s Grooming Tips:  Summer becomes a challenging time for men with beards. As they sweat and walk through the humid weather, their facial hair absorbs moisture, gunk, and more bacteria than we can imagine. 

But then you would believe that washing your face after hours of sweating and humidity is enough to get your beard squeaky clean. You are wrong. Many reports suggest that an unwashed and unhygienic beard can harbour more germs than a toilet seat.

So yeah, you need more than just a soap wash for your face if you have a long and luscious beard. We can help you in maintaining your beard in its best shape and peak hygiene in the sweaty summer.

Tips For Beard Hygiene in Summer 

Beard, like any other part of the body hair, requires managing and cleansing to prevent bacterial accumulations and maintain a well-groomed appearance. Here is how you can clean and style your beard this summer. 

Regular Wash 

Washing your beard with an anti-bacterial beard cleanser is the first step in ensuring that the sweat and germs that may have collected in the beard gets away from your facial hair leaving them fresh and clean. 

Moisturise 

Hair and the skin underneath your beard tend to get dry if essential moisturisation and conditioning are not provided to them. So use a good quality beard conditioner followed by a moisturizer to keep it hydrated. Using beard oil is a recommended way that also softens the hair. 

Detangle or Comb 

Use a beard comb or detangler to keep your facial hair unmeshed, giving it a more groomed look.

Avoid touching repeatedly 

Many people have the habit of constantly touching their beard. But once you have groomed and styled the beard, avoid touching it unnecessarily. The germs on the hands can get transferred to the beard and vice-versa. 

Trim Regularly 

Trimming allows better air flow in the beard, keeping it dry and preventing discomfort or bacteria breeding in moisture.

Hydrate 

To keep the beard moisturised from the inside out and fluffy, drink plenty of water. 

Exfoliate 

Deal with the buildup of dead skin under the beard by regularly exfoliating the skin under the beard to prevent breakouts and irritation.
