Here's how to keep your facial hair—and the skin underneath it—looking great.

Beards are a fun yet touchy topic. They can shape your face, conceal blemishes, and provide a cool—if sometimes gross—safety net that’ll catch that falling bit of food before it hits your white shirt. But if you’re a man with a coarse, kinky hair texture, you know there’s a lot that goes into deciding what will go onto your beard, let alone your face. For instance, alcohol-based products tend to dry out your hair, and it’s likely that your hair needs moisture if you have a texture ranging from 3A to 4D.

From a sleek shaver to beard oils, beard butter, and more, the list ahead includes gems from established and emerging haircare brands that specialize in men’s grooming and place an emphasis on making products for coarse, kinky hair—as well as every other hair texture. So, whether you’re growing your beard for the first time or strategizing on how to maintain your already budding facial follicles, you're sure to find what you need to keep you looking suave no matter the occasion.
