The parts of my facial growth that I keep and cultivate – ie.: my goatee – needs some tender loving care as well. Oil, balm and wax is part of the solution, but much like lather is useless without a razor, those are of limited use without a proper comb.

When I picked up beard oil and balm from Big Red, I choose a comb as well – the No7 in cherry appealed to my tastes, so that is the one I choose.

The comb is sturdily made from laminated cherry and maple, and the packaging is even more sturdy.

It’s not too much to say about the No7 comb, and none of it bad. It combs out tangles, helps spread the beard oil and in general do a wonderful job go taming my curly, wild beard.

If you have a beard or a moustache, you probably need to comb it from time to time… and while a comb from Big Red isn’t as cheap as the plastic ones from the corner store, it feels much more natural to use as part of my daily grooming.

Beard oil… it’s hair oil for your beard!

Those of us who sports a spiffy goatee in addition to our clean shaven neck and cheeks knows just how frazzled and worn the individual strands can get. That is where beard oil (and beard balm) comes to the rescue… it hydrates, styles, fights some of the reasons I get dandruff, and  helps me keep my goatee soft and tangle free.

I selected Big Red on the recommendation of an online friend, and I’m very happy with the beard oil – the scent is woods-y and workshop-y. On their website, they describe it as:

Chopping wood, greasy axels and working in the shop. Smell like you’ve just emerged from the forest after hunting for your own dinner.

If you sport a beard or moustache, you can probably benefit from beard oil. While my sample size is one right now, I think you could do a lot worse than picking up some Big Red Beard Oil – they sell small bottles as well, so you can test them easily.
