Beard wax is applied to keep beard flyaways in check and help keep your beard together.
Here's how to apply beard wax effectively:
- Scoop a small amount: Use your thumbnail to scrape out a small amount of beard wax. Start with a pea-sized amount; you can always add more if needed.
- Warm it up: Rub the wax between your fingers or palms until it becomes soft and pliable. This is crucial for even distribution.
- Apply to your beard: Starting from the roots, work the wax through your beard. Focus on areas that need the most control, such as the sides or mustache.
- Shape and style: Use your fingers or a beard comb/brush to shape and style your beard as desired. Work quickly, as the wax will start to set.
- Add more if needed: If you need more hold or control, add a small amount of wax and repeat the process. Be careful not to overdo it, as too much wax can make your beard look greasy or stiff.
- Final Touches: Use a comb or brush to ensure even distribution and to achieve your desired style.
