What stimulates beard growth?
If you've ever wanted to grow a beard but been frustrated that it doesn't seem to be growing fast enough, then you're not alone. For some men, growing facial hair can be like watching paint dry (or grass grow). But if you want your facial hair to grow faster and thicker, there are ways to help it along—and they don't involve a trip to the salon (though if you want to go get some waxing done while you wait, it certainly couldn't hurt).
Eating a balanced diet.
You may have heard that a balanced diet is good for your health, but you might not know exactly why. A balanced diet supports your body's natural processes and helps it to function at optimum levels. Eating a balanced diet can also help with beard growth as it helps the body produce testosterone, which is essential for facial hair growth.
You should eat more protein-rich foods such as meat, eggs and fish to boost testosterone levels in the body. Vegetables such as spinach are rich in vitamins and minerals that promote healthy hair growth while avoiding junk food will help you maintain your figure so that there is enough energy left over for growing facial hair!
Drinking plenty of water.
Water is a key ingredient in healthy skin. It helps to keep your beard hydrated and nourished, which can lead to faster growth. Drinking plenty of water also helps flush toxins from your body, reducing skin dryness and improving overall health.
If you're not sure how much water to drink each day, aim for at least eight glasses (64 ounces). It's better if you can spread out this amount throughout the day instead of drinking it all in one sitting because this will allow more time for the nutrients in the beverage to be absorbed by your body before they go through elimination processes such as urination or defecation.[1]
Applying beard oil to your skin.
-
Applying beard oil to your skin.
-
Use a small amount of oil and don't apply it to your face.
-
Use high quality oil that will not clog pores or cause breakouts.
-
Apply using a brush made specifically for spreading beard oils, like the Kent Boar Brush or Kent Men's Stubby Bristle Brush (or any other boar bristle brush), which will help distribute the product evenly across your beard without causing any damage to it or making it greasy looking.
Getting plenty of sleep.
Sleeping is an essential part of life. It helps your body repair itself and can even help you live longer. You may not think about sleeping as a way to stimulate beard growth, but it's one of the best things you can do for your facial hair--and your overall health!
When we sleep, our bodies produce human growth hormone (HGH), which regulates cell division and regeneration. This means that when we get enough restful sleep each night, our cells will be able to grow at a faster rate than usual. This includes facial hairs!
In addition to HGH production being increased during slumber time, there are other benefits:
Exercising regularly.
You might have heard that exercising regularly can help you sleep better. This is true, but it's also true that exercising regularly helps your body produce testosterone. Testosterone is good for beard growth--it encourages the production of sebum, which moisturizes your skin and hair follicles and makes them healthier overall.
Exercise can also help reduce stress and improve your mood. If you're feeling stressed out or down in the dumps, exercising will give you a chance to take some time out from whatever's troubling you so that those negative feelings don't get the best of you (and therefore negatively impact any potential beard growth).
Managing stress efficiently.
Stress can be a factor in slowing down beard growth. Stress can be caused by various factors, such as work, family and relationships.
To manage stress effectively:
-
Identify the source of your stress and try to resolve it. If this is not possible, then find ways of coping with it that do not involve smoking or drinking alcohol excessively. These are both bad habits that will only make matters worse!
-
Exercise regularly and eat healthily - these activities help you to stay fit and healthy which helps reduce the effects of stress on your body (as well as helping you grow a better beard).
Apply these tips to help your beard grow faster.
If you're looking to grow a beard and want it to be healthy and thick, there are many ways that you can help your beard grow faster.
-
Sleep well: Studies have shown that sleeping less than six hours per night can slow down hair growth by 10%. Make sure that when you do sleep, it's uninterrupted so your body can get the rest it needs to speed up the process of growing facial hair.
-
Reduce stress: Stress will not only make it harder for your body to produce testosterone (which is essential for beard growth), but also causes inflammation in the body which slows down many processes including cell regeneration and healing wounds faster than usual! If possible try taking some time off work or engaging in activities such as meditation/yoga where possible as these things have been shown scientifically over time since ancient times all over Asia & Europe until today's modern society where we now know these things work because science has proven them thus far so why not give them a shot if nothing else works?
Conclusion
If you want to grow a beard, you need to be patient and consistent. You can't expect results overnight, but if you follow these tips and stay positive about the process then your beard will grow faster than ever before!
