Guide to growing a Working From Home beard: Week 3 Maintenance
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has said that with many working from home, and barbers closed, the numbers of people growing beards has increased significantly. It has previously provided a 6 step guide on how to do this.
With many work meetings now taking place virtually via Skype or Zoom a working from home beard can add gravitas to the wearers on-line presence.
BLF Organiser Keith Flett, for many at Working From Home Beard Week 3 it will be time to assess the beard and where it is going. Veteran bearer wearer Christopher Howse has correctly warned in the Daily Telegraph of straggly and unkempt beards bringing the hirsute into disrepute. Beard care and maintenance is now essential
Steps to maintaining a Working From Home beard
1 Wash the facial hair at least twice every day and purge any split ends
2 An organic beard grows naturally. During the week assess if the beard has grown enough yet
3 If so judicious and occasional trimming may be employed. There is a fine balance between a beard that is stylish and one that is genuinely organic. Further guidance will be issued on Spring trimming and pruning
4 Under trimming is better than over trimming. Over trimming may lead to uneven and patchy beard syndrome which is not desirable.
5 You may wish to review whether you want a ‘freestyle’ individual beard or if you would prefer to adopt one of the many classic beard styles.
