Every present and old bearded man knows the particular hell of a dry beard. Dry beards itch. They are uncomfortable, they get tangled, and they are difficult to style. Without hydration, facial hair can become brittle, and since it is already naturally coarser than the hair on the top of your head, it can become stiff and unruly. The solution, of course, is to keep your beard hydrated, but the way you do it can come as a surprise. It doesn’t involve brushing your beard with more oil or balm. Instead, you need a beard conditioner.
Much like the conditioner you use after shampooing, beard conditioners are designed to replenish natural oils that can be removed from the cleansing process. And before you wonder why you need another product when you already have conditioner in your shower, you probably don’t want to use your hair conditioner on your face. The best beard conditioners, unlike the ones you use on your head, are formulated to not clog your pores, which could lead to bumps, pimples, and ingrown hairs under your beard.
However, they both really have the same job. Much like the conditioner you use on your head, a beard conditioner will help hydrate your whiskers and keep them healthy (after all, hydrated hair is happy hair). It will also improve maneuverability, so if you find yourself scowling when brushing your beard or applying more and more product just to shape it, a conditioner can help. You might even find that depending on your beard length, you don’t even need to add more product after using conditioner.

Beard conditioners come in two forms: rinse-off, which you use as a traditional conditioner in the shower, and leave-in, apply to damp facial hair and leave on without rinsing. Neither is significantly better than the other. Which choice you choose depends more on your personal preferences and how dry your beard is (leave-in products can sometimes be more deeply moisturizing). You can’t go wrong with any of the beard conditioners on this list.
