A Barber’s Advice to Beard Growth
2. Why is my grey coming in unevenly?
Grey hair represents the fact that the pigment cells in your hair follicles have stopped producing melanin. This process is mainly tied to your age and becomes more intense as you get older until your beard is completely grey.
That being said, it is unrealistic to expect your grey hairs to come in all at once. The period varies based on your genes, so there is no guidebook.
3. Do I need a beard brush/ can I use any brush on my beard?
Technically, you can use any brush on your beard. But, we would advise you to use a brush that is designated for your beard. This is mainly for two reasons:
- Germs and particles from your head can easily be transferred if you use the same brush to comb your hair and your beard.
- A good beard brush has medium to soft brittles which are essential in removing dead skin on your cheeks and chin. This brush should not cause any irritation and should stimulate the skin for healthy beard growth.
