    Their beard and scruff is good.

    Their shave cream is super slick when you shave it off also.

    That itchiness is just the testosterone returning to your system. Embrace it

    I’ve had a beard for so long I don’t even remember the itchiness or if I had any.

    I tried beard oil once, got it as a Christmas gift- it was not for me.

    It has been a very long time since I shaved.

    However, a little bit of oil and a basic hair brush can make a big difference at least to start off. For me at least, I have not gone shorter than a “3” on an electric trimmer since 2014.

    Oh, and unless you are a drug dealer or shady cop, keep the bear trimmed above your Adam’s apple and not longer than 1/2”. Arbitrary number there, I have no idea where I keep it. But I know that every 1/4” longer you let it grow, it adds ten years to your perceived age. Also arbitrary, but I think fairly accurate.

    Don’t really recall an itchy phase. Of course I grew it in ‘76 and haven’ t shaved it since, so I don’t remember much:)

    That is because, despite our disagreements over some matters, you are heterosexual versus metrosexual.

    Got to admit I speak somewhat from jealousy, even though I'm pretty good on the big T, I grow a crappy looking beard. I think it's because I'm 1/1024th Native American.

    Stick with it. The itchiness doesn't persist that long. I just use regular hair conditioner on mine.

    IIRC the itchy phase is like day 4-10, then it's just normal.

    Some here feel they’re too manly for beard products, but I’m not one of them. If I don’t use beard shampoo and oil my skin gets super dry and flaky. Nothing says gross like running your fingers through your beard and creating a snow squall. Contrary to popular opinion, beard oil does not reduce dick size. If you’re worried though, they do make them unscented.
