India v England 50 over series ‘amongst most hirsute’ but beard oil not required
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has said that the three match 50 over cricket series between England and India is amongst the most hirsute of recent contests. A majority of players on both sides have beards.
However the campaigners say that discussion amongst TV commentators about beard oil and beard maintenance was wide of the mark.
BLF organiser Keith Flett said, no commercial preparations are required to keep a beard clean, healthy and presentable. Soap and water are quite adequate for the task.
How to maintain your beard
1 Check twice daily for any split ends or misplaced hairs and remove them
2 Wash & comb through the beard every day at least once, preferably more often.
3 To maintain hair quality beard oils or balms are used by some, while others marinate briefly in imperial stout or porter. However the Beard Liberation Front cautions that Step 2 is quite adequate
4 Occasional pruning will help to strengthen hair growth and make sure you desired style is maintained. Pruning where required and appropriate should be on a weekly review basis
5 Don’t forget to post the occasional picture of your well maintained beard on social media to encourage others.
