Let’s be real—self-care isn’t just for the ladies. Our Kings and young princes deserve healthy hair, soft beards, and confidence that shows from the crown down. At Herbs & Oils Haircare, we know that men face unique challenges when it comes to hair and beard growth just like women, so we’re breaking it all down and giving you a game plan that’s easy, effective, and built for the culture.
I’ve known so many Black men who deal with patchy beards, slow growth, dryness, or irritation. I see the struggle online, from afar, and even up close with my own man! And it’s not because they’re not trying or don’t care—trust, there are plenty of men who will spend time in that bathroom grooming just like the ladies do.
From what I’ve seen (and studied), it often comes down to a mix of genetics, razor bumps, ingrown hairs, and lack of moisture or proper nutrients. And let’s not forget—coarse, curly hair textures need extra love to thrive. In this day and age, beards are seen as attractive and powerful, and Black men are stepping up their grooming game heavy.
Using Herbs & Oils Haircare Essentials products consistently can help nourish your follicles, hydrate your skin underneath, and promote fuller, healthier beard and hair growth over time. Our scents are gender-neutral, too—pleasing to you and to that lady trying to sneak a kiss in. 😉
So let’s get into this King-level hair and beard care routine that’ll have you feeling fresh and royal every day.
Here’s a simple step-by-step beard care routine every King can follow:
Just like you wash your hair and face—your beard needs that same love! Use our Naturally Bubbly Shampoo (free from harsh chemicals, but still gets the job done). While cleansing, grab a beard comb or brush and work through the strands. Your beard collects dirt and bacteria like your scalp does, so it’s important to keep it clean. Brushing helps prevent ingrown hairs too—don’t skip it.
After washing, it’s time to hydrate. Spritz on The Tonic Spray—it softens coarse hair, hydrates the skin beneath, and helps prevent flaking and dryness. Plus, it smells amazing! Take your beard brush and work it in to evenly distribute that goodness.
Next, lock it in with our Last Call Finishing Oil. Just rub a few drops between your palms and massage into your beard and jawline. It’s packed with nourishing ingredients that support healthy hair growth and leave your beard looking rich and well-groomed.
And don’t forget the Full Bodied Butter—think of it like a natural pomade, but better. Use it to style and seal moisture into your beard, hair, or even skin. Trust me—you’ll thank me later.
Notice how I said to comb or brush during every step? That’s because you’re training your beard to grow in the direction you want. It also stimulates circulation and helps products absorb better. Be consistent! If you can brush your waves every day, you can do this too.
Waves aren’t just a hairstyle—they’re a statement. But they take work and care to keep them spinning. Here’s a simple wave routine (360 starter-friendly):
Wash your hair 1–2 times a week with our Naturally Bubbly Shampoo, then follow up with Top It Off Conditioner.
Apply The Tonic Spray to damp hair for lightweight moisture.
Brush with a medium wave brush for 15–30 minutes to train your pattern.
Seal with our Last Call Finishing Oil for shine and softness.
Wrap it up with a durag or wave cap every night to lay those waves.
Remember: consistency = results.
Let’s kill the myth that men don’t need a hair or beard routine. Your crown matters. Your beard matters. Whether you’re rocking a fade, a twist-out, waves, or a full beard—your hair deserves just as much care as hers.
Herbs & Oils Haircare was created with YOU in mind: clean, natural ingredients. No harsh chemicals. Just real results.
So Kings, it’s time to elevate your self-care game. Step into your greatness. Because healthy beards and crowns are grown, not guessed.
