Tip 1: Beard Oil

Having a high quality beard oil is a must, no matter what length your beard is! A common misconception is that beard oil is for your beard hair, and so if your beard is short you do not need to use it. That is incorrect, beard oil is not for your beard!

Beard oil is actually designed for the skin under your beard, it can help keep it moisturized, and eliminate itching and dandruff. Make sure to apply beard oil daily for maximum results.

Tip 2: Boar Hair Brush

A good boar hair brush is your beards best friend, especially when it is shorter. Not only with you train the hairs as they grow, and help your beard look neat and orderly, but it also helps exfoliate away the dead skin and increase circulation which creates an optimal environment for beard health and growth.

Tip 3: Trim Regularly

Now it is no secret that trimming your beard is key in helping it look it's best, but when you are rocking a short beard it becomes even more important.

When your beard is longer you can go weeks (or even months) without trimming and there is no detrimental impact to the appearance of your beard. However, when you are rocking a short beard the difference is much more noticeable, far more quickly.

We highly recommend developing a good grooming routine that includes checking in on that length about once a week. Now we know that going to the barber every week isn't realistic, so grab your MT-1 bead trimmer and follow along with this helpful tutorial on trimming short beards.
