Do you dream of having a beautiful, full, silky, even beard… unfortunately you end up with several or a hole in the beard under your chin, Gentleman? Frustrating, isn’t it? In this article, we’ll take a look at what you can do about it.

Why do i have bald spots in my beard?

If your beard growth isn’t as strong as Oscar Izaac’s, and looks more like Keanus Reeves’: incomplete and unruly, you’ve come to the right place!

To treat your problem, you need to be able to understand where it’s coming from, if you want to adopt a bearded look that looks good. When you grew your beard, did you notice that it was sparse and not as full as you’d hoped?

There are a number of factors that can cause a hole in your beard. In simple terms: the hole is primarily due to a lack of facial hair. So you can thank your genetics!

Here are the two most common reasons for a sparse beard:

• It could be that you don’t have enough hair follicles in certain areas.
• Another, more reassuring possibility is that hair growth is simply late. In this case, patience is the remedy.

However, if at the age of 30 you notice that your beard still has these holes, you should suspect the existence of certain disorders, such as :

• folliculitis: a microbial or bacterial infection of the hair follicle. The follicle becomes irritated and swollen, and the hair lodged in it can quickly fall out.
• scarring alopecia: this term covers conditions that lead to permanent hair loss. The hair follicles disappear and are replaced by scars. Scarring alopecia can also be seen in the case of burns or shaving cuts.
• Factors such as stress, psychological disorders and certain medications can also cause beard baldness.
• in the most extreme cases, we can mention trichotillomania, which consists in frantically plucking beard hair until it’s completely bald.

How to fix my patchy beard?

Without further ado, here are our solutions. You’ve earned it, Gentleman. After all the theory, it’s time for practice. Roll up your sleeves and take action: a hole-free beard isn’t a miracle, it just takes time and care.

Beard oils: The natural and effective remedy

Beard Oils made from Jojoba Oil and Castor Oil are just as effective, and also provide deep moisturizing. All the beard oils in the Isner Mile range have been carefully formulated with jojoba oil.

So Jojoba? Here are our recommendations.

A plant-based product, beard oil has many beneficial properties for the hair. Initially moisturizing, beard oil helps purify hair roots.

Each has its own virtues:

• To purify, there’s the famous castor oil, and if it’s so well-known, it’s not by chance. Applying it regularly helps stimulate beard growth. What’s more, thanks to its antimicrobial and antibacterial action, this oil cleans hair follicles.
• Grape seed oil also has a reconstructive quality. Thanks to the presence of linoleic acids, this oil regenerates damaged hair. It also has anti-inflammatory properties.
• Sweet almond oil is also rich in minerals, vitamins and essential fats.

We’ve put together a list of the best oils made from castor oil, so all you have to do is choose!

To help the oil penetrate properly and obtain maximum benefits, you need to massage it into your face. Your blood circulation will improve with these small movements, which will help to better nourish and bring more oxygen to your face. And guess who benefits most? Your hair, of course.

It should be noted that beard balms have the same benefits as oils!

Obtain a maintenance kit and set up suitable habits

Instead of rushing to wash your beard with soap and ending up with a continual tug-of-war, take the time to adopt a beard care ritual. You can do this by buying a beard care kit containing the right beard care products.

Here’s a quick look at the essential care routine:

• Wash your face with special soap or beard shampoo, for example.
• Moisturize by massaging your entire face with a beard oil or beard balm, to give your beard an invigorating start to the day.

I don’t mean to frighten you, but if you don’t take care of your skin, the bulb at the root of the hair won’t be able to breathe, and if your pores are clogged… it’s guaranteed desert!

On the other hand, if you stimulate hair growth by taking the time to massage in your moisturizers, you’ll see that the results will start to show very quickly!

Here’s some beards kit that we can recommend you:

Tame hair or fill in the beard gap?

Let your beard grow and brush it

Letting your beard grow allows you to discover its potential. It’s also a way of camouflaging thinning areas. If your hairs are long, they can be easily disciplined with a beard brush or comb, for example.

Be careful not to spend all morning in front of the mirror brushing them either, as they may feel attacked and make you pay for it.

But the advantage of this short-lived solution is that your irregularities will hardly be noticeable anymore. Adjust the structure of the hairs by applying oils or balms, and you’re done (at least for the day!).

Shave it all off and be done with it?

If patience isn’t your strong suit, then there’s only one solution: shave your beard! It’s not necessarily giving up, but rather giving your hair a chance to grow back stronger.

In any case, don’t give up hope and be patient.

Equip yourself with the best shaving products, such as shaving brush or shaving oil. This helps the blade glide more easily. It’s up to you whether you prefer a traditional razor, a cabbage cutter or a shavette, depending on your skill level.

Finally, don’t forget the finishing touch: scented aftershave. However, you can always go for a nice moustache or a well-trimmed goatee if you end up missing hair.

Fallback solution: seek advice from a professional barber

If none of the above solutions has had any effect on the holes in your beard, you can ask for a personalized diagnosis from a professional barber in your town . He’ll be able to advise you on the style best suited to both your good looks and your hair structure.

Holes in the beard under the chin, near the jaws, on the cheeks… depending on the location, you can ask him to shave off the hair there and adopt a goatee, a moustache or shave it all off.

Professionals know how to design the best style for you. So follow their advice to the letter, Gentleman, and you’ll never have a hole in your beard again!

Still in despair after all these solutions?

Beard growth has a genetic factor, and not the least important one. Just take a look at your family’s facial hair and you’ll be sure.

So, no, there’s no miracle solution: all you have to do is look after your beard properly and apply high-quality products. Just take a look at your family’s facial hair and you’ll be sure.
