Men swear by it: castor oil for the beard.

A true miracle cure, they say. Castor oil is said to stimulate hair growth.

Some even claim that castor oil has the same effect as the hair growth product minoxidil. We want to explore this.

Beard oil

What is castor oil actually? 

Castor oil is extracted from the seeds of the castor tree. It is a pure natural product. That’s the good news.

But what is castor oil really good for? We'll show you now!

Can castor oil stimulate beard growth? 

Anyone who tries castor oil and compares their beard before and after will notice one thing above all: The beard looks much neater and shinier

If you don't like the smell of castor oil, we recommend our beard products - especially this set!

However, castor oil does not actually promote beard growth. Unlike minoxidil, which can specifically stimulate hair growth (but be cautious using it on the beard, as it's approved for the scalp!), castor oil cannot do this.

However, it noticeably nourishes the hair. Your beard will become softer and more vital.

By looking more well-groomed and thus fuller, the impression is often created that it is actually denser due to the use of the oil.

Our Störtebekker beard oil contains castor oil combined with

  • Argan oil,
  • Jojoba oil,
  • Almond oil
  • and squalane.

It soothes the facial skin and provides sufficient moisture. Just like fresh from the barbershop.

Positive side effect: By using castor oil, you regularly care for and massage your beard. This stimulates blood circulation accordingly and makes the hair appear a bit fuller

Using castor oil: What you need to know  

Use the oil sparingly to avoid drowning the skin underneath. Test it cautiously at first to avoid your skin reacting sensitively or even allergically.

Expert tip: It is advisable to massage a small amount of oil into the beard in the evening and then work it in with a beard comb.

This way, the oil can penetrate the hair structure overnight and also be nourishing to the skin before you rinse it out.

Conclusion

Castor oil is an optimal beard care product. It

  • protects against dry, brittle hair,
  • provides a healthy appearance,
  • and supports the skin under the beard with valuable nutrients.
  • It definitely makes your beard look fuller and well-groomed.

However, it is not the miracle cure for suddenly sprouting beard growth. So, you can definitely correct minor flaws and shape a wild beard with it.

What is your experience with castor oil? Have you tried it?

FAQs on the topic: Castor oil

How often should I massage castor oil into my beard? 

Castor oil can be used regularly . If you use it daily, your beard hair may become somewhat oily and heavy over time, so you might want to use it more sparingly. However, there is nothing against daily use. 

    Can using castor oil cause side effects?

    Beard care with castor oil can lead to no side effects as long as your skin does not react allergically to it. 

    How long is castor oil shelf-stable? 

    Castor oil can, like all other oils and cosmetic products, also expire. It is typically shelf-stable for up to 8 months

    How long does it take for castor oil to start working? 

    How quickly castor oil works depends on how regularly you use it. From experience, it takes about two to three weeks to notice an effect and for your beard hair to look well-groomed and fuller. 

    The same applies to care with our beard products. For the best care and shave, we have put together great sets of our beard and shaving products - enjoy browsing.
