The No-BS Guide to Beard & Mustache Care 7 Fast Tips for a Healthier, Better-Looking Beard & 'Stache Presented by Peckerhead Mustache Wax
A Mustache is the Centerpiece of an Epic Beard
If your beard looks like it’s been through a wind tunnel, or your mustache won’t stay out of your mouth, this guide is for you.
We created this no-BS, quick-hit grooming manual to help you keep your facial hair looking sharp — without adding 47 steps to your morning routine. Let’s get to it.
Tip #1: Know Your Style
Your face shape should guide your beard or mustache choice.
Round face? Go longer on the bottom to elongate your look. Square face? Keep it neat on the sides, fuller on the chin. Oval face? Congrats. You can pull off most styles.
Pro tip: Style it like you mean it. Wax helps define your look. Use enough to pull it all together to make it work with your particular face shape.
Tip #2: Wash it Right
Washing too often strips natural oils. Use a gentle cleanser, but only 2–3x a week. We ask that you not use your Axe body wash. Use a dedicated beard wash with gentle ingredients. Trust us.
Keep it fresh without killing your beard’s vibe.
Tip #3: Wax On, Wax Right
A little bit of wax goes a long way. Warm the tin of wax in your pocket for up to 20 minutes to make it more pliable and easier to apply. This will make the entire application process much easier, and you’ll pull less hairs out in the process.
Warm it up between your fingers Apply from the middle of your mustache to the tips Style & tame into shape
Don’t just slap it on. Think of it like beard and mustache armor.
Tip #4: Train the Hair
Hair grows how you treat it. Brush daily in the direction you want it to lie. Consistency = less frizz, more control.
Pair it with our wax and you’re golden.
Tip #5: Feed the Beard
Drink water. Eat protein. Get your vitamins. Healthy hair starts from the inside. You’ll see the difference in 30 days.
Bonus: 3 Tools Every Guy Needs
-
Beard Comb: Wooden beats plastic every time. Something even better? Don’t use a comb at all. Instead, use a brush. The one I use and highly recommend is the Conair Salon Results Professional Cushion Hair Brush. So much better than a comb.
-
Trimmer: Clean the edges once a week. This is perhaps one of the most important steps on this list. Hit the strays on the edge of your beard once a week at a minimum. It keeps everything looking shaped and your beard and mustache looking sharp. Skip this step for one or two weeks and you start looking like a Sasquatch.
-
A Damn Good Wax: We’ve got you covered. For your mustache (and your beard if you prefer a really strong hold all over) warm Peckerhead Mustache Wax up in your pocket for 20 minutes and apply liberally to your face rug. For something a bit softer and more manageable for your beard, consider our beard wax. Same ingredients, a little less beeswax.
