I only had one shaver blade left when I moved in with my girlfriend, and I used the same shaver blade for 5 years until the plastic broke and one of the blades fell out. The trick is, the blade gets dull but still cuts the hair regardless, as if the blade has a point where it cant get any duller
All really great ways to make a beard softer. Heat (changing the texture) is sometimes the quickest way to obtain a softer beard. Pair heat with a bird oil and you have a great combo IMO. Great video Dan!
We are in epic beard growing times that offer great choices to soften and manage the beards! It's always good to have premium, cbd, emu and ostrich oils in your grooming collection and used in rotation. Clothes dried in the dryer are always softer than on the line! Then if you add a few dryer sheets not only softer but reduced static. Beards will react to the right amount heat the same way. Excellent video as usual Dan! 👍👊✌
Been watching for a few now and like your openness and willingness to keep learning and moving forward. I’ve come to some conclusion we need many different products depending on the beard day. It dictates and if we can read it right we’ll hopefully choose the best options. I think a good beard is a great way to respect yourself no matter what others might think. Start with yourself, stay positive and helping others comes naturally. Right on bro!
I am a big fan of the bird juices and CBD products. I have Full Spectrum stuff, Isolate, and Chronic Beard Co uses Broad Spectrum CBD and all of them seem to have their benefits. Emu and Ostrich have become pretty much obsessions of mine because on top of the skin and hair benefits and the styling benefits, I'm working a theory that they(especially emu) seem to extend the life and projection of scents. My current understanding is leading me to believe that the animal fats help with the scent properties, I just haven't cracked the code yet. So until then I'll just enjoy my bird juices. Bird Juice Recommendations: J's Beard Essentials:Emu Magic City: Ostrich Stroke Beard Co: Emu Black Rebel:Ostrich and Emu Southern Beard Co: Emu CBD Recommendations: Chronic Beard Co: Broad Spectrum Beard Octane: Full Spectrum and Isolate I'm sure I'm forgetting a few, and I would put Chesapeake and Peake CBD on the list, but one of them is defunct and the other will be in December! Luckily by the end of December we will get something even better out of the deal 😎
Beard butters seem to do a good job at softening. And Shea butter really being the powerhouse it seems, so much so I went out and bought some by itself and I use just shea butter sometimes on my beard later in the evening or whenever I want to. Softening!! Look forward to trying some other things and learning from commenters.
I usually use a hair lotion in both beard and hair. It’s worked for me so far but I feel like I can do better. Thanks for the tips! Loving the whole relaxed thing of the CBD.
I haven't even watched this video before discovering a heat thing. I straighten my beard with a blow drier and a brush since my beard is still short and looks like an afro mane if I leave it curly lol. I was afraid heat will damage the hair making it dry and rough but it actually makes it softer. I guess the heat opens hair cuticles and makes the oil absorb better which then results in softer hair, that's my only explanation lol. Glad to see that I'm actually doing a good thing and not damaging the hair :D
Black rebel has been my new favorite. I was skeptical about the oil blend before I ordered it the first time but after trying it I am absolutely hooked. Waiting for the voorhees and Edward now.
I do all 3. Probably 2/3 of my oils are either CBD or ostrich. I use regular oils to keep a mix. I definitely feel a softness difference with CBD and Ostrich oils.
I think what works for me, is changing companies every couple days. If I use one company for more than 3 days in a row, I can definitely tell, even with washing.
I rotate Black Rebel Beard Co's oil and butter with Fables full spectrum Angler oil/butter at night. I also add emu oil to the ends of my beard for extra support. I condition my beard at least 4x a week. I don't use any heat but will give it a try. I always felt heat was drying out my beard but ill be adding it to my routine after seeing this vid.
Amusingly timed video. I live in Europe so finding good beard products has been a hassle. I bought Seven Potions kit (oil, wash and conditioner) based on your rec. It arrived today and i excitedly washed my beard, wash & conditioner. My god. My beard has never been this soft.
Great video Dan. CBD more then bird type oils create better softness for me. But both are great options. My best feel actually jus comes from a nighttime routine. Shower: wash/condition/oil/blow dry/butter and within 30 min amazing beard feel that lasts till morning.
Hopefully one day Australia will grow up and allow CBD beard products. In the meantime, we do have a lot of Emus so I will try that. I have to say though that I must be doing something right with my heat and wash/conditioning routine because my beard is generally nice and soft. Not too soft, but never tangled or brittle/dry. Thanks Dan, always delivering useful and insightful information for both the seasoned beard-wearer and the newer ones alike!
Hey Dan, great video. I won a 100 gift card on ur live stream for beard octane cbd line, thanks for recommending ginger jamboree, absolutely great oil and scent
Great video! My answer would be to use J’s Beard Essential’s. 😊 Seriously tho. After using his oil followed by his butter later on, my beard was softer than ever.
Great video Dan… again! The quality of these vids keeps getting better and better. My beard loves the ostrich oil. And the Flint collab is really growing on me. As other above have said, it can be “too” soft at times, so I find myself mixing a drop or two of castor in, and I’m good to go.
Awesome video. Never have tried a CBD beard oil but the emu/ostrich blends are game changers from my experience in creating products. Tried heating but it didn’t help my beard. Great work with the content. The No beard days every couple of weeks help my products soak up any product on my beard routine.
Hi Dan,I Really like your channel my bearded brother. My question is about a previous video you made. Regarding the use of beard butter at bedtime. Does that method contribute to a softer beard in your opinion ? Thank you for your advice and time. Godspeed, Andy
Ostrich oil makes my beard soft. VERY soft! I have to blow dry and style afterwards for sure. If I don’t style after ostrich oil, it is a soft puffy mess. Like you said just once or twice every now and then; otherwise too soft.
Amazing video Dan! I have found with the bird oils is an every other day rotation is best for my beard. I love CBD beard butter, still need to try an oil And I definitely agree with a consistent wash and heat routine, rock on Dan! 👊🤘
Great video brother! I’ve seen your video on cbd but even if gold falls out your beard, it is not goin in mine! Same goes for hempseed. As for Ostrich/Emu, absolutely love those oils & so does my beard!! I too highly recommend y’all trying! I’ve seen video of a master stylist who does coconut oil w/heat treatments for his beard. That’s something I would like to try soon. Especially winter around the corner. God bless y’all today!!
I haven't tried CBD oil, I don't like the heavy feel of bird oil but I have a consistent beard wash and condition routine followed a heat and style routine that actually leaves my beard feeling soft and manageable.
I enjoy the ginger one I bought it in the cbd, when you showed it I thought hey mine has a green cap, then right after you mentioned that loll. Also got the butta in the same scent but not cbd. Such a nice sunny day type of smell. I will check out the other brand I have not tried. great vid Dan
Great advice! I’ve always wondered if there is a certain amount of full spectrum cbd oil that is “enough” in beard products? The amounts vary by A LOT with more companies using CBD. I just wonder if the amount of (full spectrum) CBD used was higher… would the benefits be greater? THANKS 🙏
I have tried Beard Octane CBD and ostrich oil and love them both! I cannot use the ostrich oils more than 2 days in a row though. The beard gets so soft I cannot style it. Rotating between them seems to work best.
I do the wash condition and heat I mix my own beard oil made up of multiple oils ( Jojoba, Argan, fractionated coconut, hemp oil, avocado oil and vitamin E oil ) I also mix up castor oil with peppermint oil to try to fix the patchy spots on my beard and I take Biotin I don't know what else I can do to grow a nice beard😆
also forgot I have and use black rebel and that truly softens my beard. that is the only oil for me, when used alone that makes my beard that soft. it made my beard as soft as when I use other brands oil and butter together. and the one I know your not a fan of but the beard jelly,that one works crazy good on me for softening. just I can not use to much it gets greasy fast
CBD oils took me a couple days of use to see a difference at first because my beard wasn't as healthy as it should've been. If you don't see results after 1 use, don't give up! Give it a few more days and let the CBD do it's job to repair and nourish. You'll definitely see a difference!
My bloke has a really soft long beard/goatee naturally but oh my gosh his stubble (either side) is so sharp, even after just two days. Can applying oil to this, even though it’s shaved smooth frequently, make it softer when it grows back? My face hurts!
Rockin the NF hat! Great video. I enjoy the ostrich oil with BRBC to soften my beard. I notice a difference when using 2-3 days in a row. I have tried CBD but don't see a difference in my beard. Could be the brand or the type of CBD? I might need to use it for more then 1-2 days in a row. I think the heat and styling has made a difference. I notice my beard is softer if I follow this schedule: Wash, Rinse, Wash/Co-Wash, Rinse (Repeat). I add the stripping pine tar wash every other week on the wash day. I was co-washing every wash day and I felt as if it was making my beard too soft and was not styling the way I wanted it.
Hey, Dan! What's the plan for the next Carrier oil 101 video? I'm curious to hear your thoughts on Sea Buckthorn Oil, so would love to see that in your schedule :)
I buy pure emu oil and use that once or twice a week. and the other days are Fables the grower and Bahawat oriental knight. Beard has never felt softer.
Killer video I know I’m behind on the CBD train haven’t tried it yet but the other 2 100% definitely help keep my beard soft. Hot oil treatments also help keep my beard soft also leave in conditioner really helps keep my beard soft once again great video.
Hey Dan. Great video as usual my friend. I’m on my 4th bottle of ICE. Absolutely love it. I rotate it with my collection of Detroit Grooming products. Also consistent wash/condition routine with heat especially helps. 👍🏼
My current favorite bears oil is Defender from honor brand. I have a hard time with strong scents giving me allergies so I tend to go for some lighter scents. Defender has been perfect. Can you recommend any other oils that you’ve tried that aren’t super strong with fragrance? I’m a big fan of woodsy scents. I also really enjoy hatchet from honor brand, but not huge on the clove smell. Any recommendations would be great. Love the content!
Awesome video dude 👍 I have a question for one of my best friends who is from the UK, the goatee section of his beard can grow normally but both cheeks take considerably longer to grow and are patchy, is there any follicle reason for this or is it because he’s doing something wrong?
I've been fortunate that even with my white hair, it is usually very soft in texture, witch is unusual from what I hear from other alabaster brothers out there... the only wiry hairs I have are in the mustache, and they have gotten better with consistent heat routine... I said my hair is usually soft, I really notice if I slack off on my water intake, then I get the hay bale feeling... But consistent water and a regular use of heat keeps me feeling alright... I have tried the "Deep coconut oil treatment" but didn't see any benefit, or at least not enough to outweigh the hassle... CBD and "Bird" oils are on my list for the upcoming purchase season...
I have the sample pack from Black Rebel beard but haven't used them yet. Really want to try Fables CBD oil but can't justify the extra price. Maybe in the future.
I have been using the ostrich oil lately and it does definitely make my beard softer. I go with a very natural full beard look (I only style with a comb) so I dont really notice if it gets too soft. I wonder if there is an bird oil with CBD in it?
(Business beard) After oil is placed in beard I put mustache wax in my mustache. I then use hot brush to comb wax throughout my mustache AND my beard. I don't use very much wax but I can tell it has been used throughout. Beard always feels smooth and soft throughout the day.
You should be able to order this one, if not then I am sorry I do not know any. naturalstresssolutions.com/product/ice-beard-oil/ * DANC = 20% off affiliate discount code
I remember years back. People use to put mayonnaise in their beards lol. I stick with emu oil, cbd and heat for best results. I enjoy bird oils because it helps eliminates extra routines. I can get away with just one routine a day if I use emu oil 5 days a week. My time is valuable and I use it sparingly.
Are you applying heat on a beard that is damp and has oil first and waiting 3-5 minutes after oil? Also, which brand of oil? Those matter in a major way. When done properly, your beard will not feel like straw.
@@DanCBearded yes, after showering, my favorite oil is honest Amish, second favorite is Okay Castor oil, and I never have time to wait a full 3-5 minutes, usually only 1-2 at most, I just don’t like how it feels after heat. I have a natural “Nordic” curly beard, maybe after it grows out more I’ll experiment again when I have more time to do it exactly right.
Love your videos Dan. I have found a Cbd oil here in the UK and it has polysorbate 20 and 80 in it. Would you reccomend this. All the best to you and your family.
I find that the Honest Amish Heavy Duty beard balm after applying beard oil (usually Honest Amish Premium) works well to keep my beard soft. The balm has nice hold too.
Unfortunately, I can sweat bullets just standing around do to Hyperthyroidism. Which means I'm washing my beard once a day. Grave Before Shave, Kingsman, and Beard Octane LCW probably have the best daily washes that soften better than most conditioners.
I have all 3 of those CBD oils and they're awesome! Bird oil 1-2 days a week works perfectly. I wash 4-5 days and rinse the other days. Usually in shower conditioner twice a week
Is it okay to use oils that are in plastic containers? A lot of people told me to stay away from oils that are in plastic container because the plastic soaks into the oil.
I grew a bread to save money on razors, turns out i had an error in judgement 😂
Razors and shaving cream can be sooo expensive!
I only had one shaver blade left when I moved in with my girlfriend, and I used the same shaver blade for 5 years until the plastic broke and one of the blades fell out. The trick is, the blade gets dull but still cuts the hair regardless, as if the blade has a point where it cant get any duller
All really great ways to make a beard softer. Heat (changing the texture) is sometimes the quickest way to obtain a softer beard. Pair heat with a bird oil and you have a great combo IMO. Great video Dan!
Absolutely, thanks Josh!
Love CBD makes my beard really soft
Using bar soap makes my beard so ft too
Great video Dan
@@DeliberatelyBearded a good beard bar soap I can see but usually bar soaps for me seem to be ultra stripping. Just my opinion

Great comment from experience!
Just received my Bahawat oil and beard balm a few days ago. Used it for a few days and it was amazing!!!!!!!
Incredibly soft and hydrated!
I love it!
I love that stuff!

Could you please do a video comparing emu vs ostrich oil? :D
They are extremely similar, but I will see what I can do!
Make a beard club review!! Specially the oils/shampoo/ vitamins
I am hoping to make that happen!

@@DanCBearded thank you my friend! I can’t do coconut oil… I get the smelly beard haha.
Hi Dan. You usually have links and codes when you mention suppliers. Did I miss it in this post? Thanks.
I did not think to put them in this video, but I can grab them for you!
@@DanCBearded thanks much appreciated. I’d sooner use your affiliate codes.
(Business beard) After oil is placed in beard I put mustache wax in my mustache. I then use hot brush to comb wax throughout my mustache AND my beard. I don't use very much wax but I can tell it has been used throughout. Beard always feels smooth and soft throughout the day.
That is awesome!
Thanks Dan! Never heard of cbd or bird oils,do you know of any i could get in Australia?

When you first start using beard oil. How long does it take to see or feel a difference?
You should feel the difference right away
Have tried cbd beard oil… works good. Haven’t tried bird oil yet but looking forward to that. Conditioner and heat works excellent for me.
Good stuff!
Information is golden, thanks Dan.
Thanks Doc!
I like having a soft beard. I always use CBD oils and butters. I like emu too but try not to use it every day.
Awesome Gabe!
Dan c, I have a question for you. I'm trying to decide rather to use avacdo oil or pumpkin seed oil for my beard. What oil would choose?
Avacado 👊
@@DanCBearded thank you Dan. I love watching your videos. I learned so much about oils from you.
Good Video Bro 👊🏾
Thank you!
professor do you have a full review of fable beard co scents?
I have several videos, but it would be impossible to have all in one because they have so many lol just search on youtube "dan c bearded fable review"
Nice! Gonna buy that Magic City to try it.
Awesome!
this is nuts
And coconuts
I remember years back. People use to put mayonnaise in their beards lol. I stick with emu oil, cbd and heat for best results. I enjoy bird oils because it helps eliminates extra routines. I can get away with just one routine a day if I use emu oil 5 days a week. My time is valuable and I use it sparingly.
No mayo here!!
Hey Dan C. If I have plain CBD oil meant to be taken orally, can I mix a drop or two with my beard oil in my hands for the same effect?
If it is pure CBD oil, then yes it can!
Does this work for gray beard
Yes, absolutely!
Man those things are fine and dandy but what about this using straight up coconut oil to make the beard soft and condition the skin?
Coconut oil isn’t great for everyone. It had a high comedogenic scale rating. Which means it is likely to clog pores
When I use heat it makes it feel like straw. I’ll never use heat again
Are you applying heat on a beard that is damp and has oil first and waiting 3-5 minutes after oil? Also, which brand of oil?
Those matter in a major way. When done properly, your beard will not feel like straw.
@@DanCBearded yes, after showering, my favorite oil is honest Amish, second favorite is Okay Castor oil, and I never have time to wait a full 3-5 minutes, usually only 1-2 at most, I just don’t like how it feels after heat. I have a natural “Nordic” curly beard, maybe after it grows out more I’ll experiment again when I have more time to do it exactly right.
Hey Dan
Hey Ron!
Love your videos Dan. I have found a Cbd oil here in the UK and it has polysorbate 20 and 80 in it. Would you reccomend this. All the best to you and your family.
Hmmm, I am not sure why they would have that ingredient in there
I find that the Honest Amish Heavy Duty beard balm after applying beard oil (usually Honest Amish Premium) works well to keep my beard soft. The balm has nice hold too.
Great call! Beard butter is a staple of having a healthier and often softer beard
Unfortunately, I can sweat bullets just standing around do to Hyperthyroidism. Which means I'm washing my beard once a day. Grave Before Shave, Kingsman, and Beard Octane LCW probably have the best daily washes that soften better than most conditioners.
Those are some great washes!
I have all 3 of those CBD oils and they're awesome!
Bird oil 1-2 days a week works perfectly.
I wash 4-5 days and rinse the other days. Usually in shower conditioner twice a week
Thanks for sharing!! That's a fantastic rotation
Great video, Dan! I’ve been using PEAKE CBD lately, which works wonders. Also, nice NF hat. 🤘🏼
Peake is awesome
Sad that it is their last month, but excited for the new chapter and new company!
@@DanCBearded Definitely. Gary makes fantastic products and I’m sure his new company will be a smash hit.
@@DanCBearded Totally! Sad to see CBG go but I know Gary will kill it with the new company. Exciting times!
Will vitamin E do the same thing? (anti-inflammatory)
No, higher volumes of vit-e can lead to problems for most beardsmen. Vit-e is mainly used to extend the scent life of an oil by preventing oxidation
@@DanCBearded Oh... ok thanks dan
Is it okay to use oils that are in plastic containers? A lot of people told me to stay away from oils that are in plastic container because the plastic soaks into the oil.
That effect is called "leaching" and it is not something to worry about if the company is using proper/legal level of fragrances
@@DanCBearded thank you.. I was thinking about buying organic hemp seed oil from Walmart
