This is an excellent product and cleans my beard as will as conditioning it. I use it daily and have done so for many years. I've tried other products but always come home to the old stand by . .Bluebeard's.

Changed my outlook on beards.

Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2016

Style: Extra ConditioningVerified Purchase

I originally bought this in response to slowly developing dry skin, which lead to dandruff mainly from my mustache and a bit from my beard. I attempted to use lotion to fix the issue however that proved ineffective. It was when I started doing research on dandruff of the beard where I learned that you actually should wash your beard (I keep mine rather short, so I thought water and a good scrub was enough).
After some careful thought into what conditioner I wanted to add to my shampoo I carefully chose Bluebeards because it was the first thing I saw and it wasn’t going to tear a hole in my wallet. I thought this was going to be a waste of money and time, as I believed that soap and shampoo was all that the world ever needed. I was wrong. So very wrong. My whiskers used to be rather tough but after ONE single wash with this stuff they basically became softer. Though the dandruff is still an issue, I went from having to have a raging blizzard under my nose a minor annoyance. I should note that there is a scent to the product, it’s not overpowering by any factor and it vanishes (at least to me) after application.
Though it did not help me with my problem, I am still highly impressed with this product. The way my beard feels now is so much smoother than what I was used to. After using this product, I believe I might try other things just to learn what I like and don’t like, but it has changed my outlook on beard maintenance.
Lastly, I’m not sure why but they didn’t include a photo of the ingredients and the one that we do have is rather poor.

On the pricey side but totally worth it

Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2015

Style: UnscentedVerified Purchase

Before I give my review, let me state that the 4 star rating is strictly because of the price because I wish it was a little cheaper. With that said my preferred rating would be 4.5 stars. I also used this for about a week before reviewing it.

I've tried a few other products to no avail because I have very sensitive skin and combination acne to boot, so I was definitely skeptical as to if this product would work for me. I am happy to say that this beard wash really does the trick. It has a decent lather and a little really does go a long way. I have a good sized beard and I only need to use about the size of a nickel to wash it thoroughly. Just after using the wash alone my beard was so much easier to comb through and my skin felt a lot cleaner too without becoming oily or dried out. Although this is unscented my roommate noticed that it has a faint woodsy scent, although it could just be the beard wash mixing with my natural pheromones. I have yet to notice the scent but I like things that smell woodsy so I'm totally fine with that. I got the unscented beard lotion with it and when used together the results for me were even better than just using the wash alone. All in all this is definitely a fantastic product and I highly recommend it to anyone with sensitive skin.

Tame the "Wiry" Beard!

Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2012

Style: Extra ConditioningVerified Purchase

This product works! I noticed a big difference after only a few days of using it and I like the way it smells.

I've had a short beard for a long time and recently decided to let it grow out beyond being able to use my beard trimmer's highest setting to keep it tamed.

My facial hair is very "wiry" and rough and once I started to let it grow out, it started to stick out in all different directions. I tried washing it and using a few different conditioners (my wife's conditioners for her hair) to try and soften it up, but nothing seemed to do much. This product has helped a lot and I am now able to comb my beard so that "most" of the hairs are going in the same direction and it doesn't look like a "white-trash, birds-nest beard"

I live in the woods on a mountain and have been known to go a few days without a shower, so grooming has never been on the top of my list. I wanted to grow my beard out, but I don't want to look like Jeremiah Johnson coming out of the mountains, this product has worked great.

I started using this product about a week after I starting to use the All-natural Moustache, Mustache Wax Beard Gloss . I think the combo of this wash and the beard wax has made for softer facial hair.

I would recommend both of these products to anyone that wants to tame their wiry beard.

Fantastic! Smells Great! Finally!

Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2012

Style: Extra ConditioningVerified Purchase

The search for a good beard wash that can do it all is over for me. For a very long time I have just used shampoo, bars of natural soap, or my wife's expensive shampoo to wash my facial hair. Not anymore! I am careul to read ingredients on products because I prefer natural ones. I read the other reviews before deciding to buy this and was unsure about the scent as this wash contains lime. I must say it smells fresh, clean, and unique. It smells great to me and I do not notice any sort of "chemical" smell as another reviewer noted. This wash leaves my beard smelling fresh, feeling soft, and my skin moisturized. It does not feel like it is harsh on the hair at all. It leaves my beard feeling great.

+ Easy to Apply
+ Easy to Rinse
+ Awesome Scent
+ Many Natural Ingredients

- Kinda spendy for the size (tho not a con to me because this stuff is awesome)

_Bottom Line_ Yes, I would recommend this to a friend and I will also continue using it. This wash is pricey given the size but a little bit goes a very long way and this stuff lasts quite a long time.

Smell is terrible

Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2024

Yuck. I've been a fan of Bluebeards for several years now, and I decided to switch from the standard fresh mint beard wash to this "extra conditioning" type, and what a mistake that was. This product smells horrible, and I'm not sure what about this makes it extra conditioning, but I don't see it. If I hadn't already tried the product I would certainly return it.

Somewhat effective

Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2012

Style: OriginalVerified Purchase

I bought this in hopes that it might serve as a conditioner for my beard. I'm blond, so the hair is very fine. I'm told by others that it can be irritating when up against their skin. I figured a beard wash might soften that hair and make that less of an issue.

What I've found is that my beard is much softer within the first couple of hours of washing, but by the end of the day it's back on the prickly side. It doesn't really seem to have any long-term effects, although to be fair, I only use it a few times a week when I have a little extra time in the shower.

As for the smell of the wash, when I first got it, it had a strong lime scent that was a little out of the ordinary, but also kind of fun. Over time, the scent has faded and, to me, smells a little bit like dog shampoo. Granted, this might be a particular association for me, and my beard never smells like wet dog or anything after I've used it, it's just kind of odd.

Overall, I can't say that I'm unhappy with this product- it seems to serve a little bit of its purpose for me- but I don't know that I would buy it again.

Bluebeards keeps your skin from drying and flaking under your beard

Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2013

Style: Extra ConditioningVerified Purchase

I have had a beard for 15 years. I used to have to keep it fairly short due to the fact that the skin would get itchy and flake under my beard if I grew it out too much. I tried other products like baby shampoo, moisturizer, etc. but nothing seemed to work. This wasn't a phase that I could wait out... I tried that. I even went to a dermatologist after the flaking wouldn't go away after months. Then I discovered bluebeards on Amazon.com. I started with the regular Bluebeards Original Beard Wash (in the blue bottle) and Bluebeards original beard saver lotion. They worked wonders. Eventually I switched to this version of the wash with Extra Conditioning agents. I eventually dropped the beard saver from my routine and still have no problems. Now I can grow my beard as long as I want (its halfway down my chest now). I recommend this to anyone who wants to grow their beard beyond stubble and not have an itchy face. This stuff works wonders and has a pleasant lime smell (great if you and/or you significant other love citrus)!.

Works well, good scent but doesn't linger long enough

Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2013

Style: OriginalVerified Purchase

I use all kinds of different beard shampoos, conditioners, creams and oils. I often take a break from using them when I'm going to try a new product so I can really tell what kind of effect it has on my beard. I've used the Bluebeards Original Beard Wash for about a week and a half and the results are obvious: it works.

My beard comes out very soft, very clean, and I feel it does a good job moisturizing the skin underneath. The sheen of my beard is more aided by conditioners, but this stuff did seem to have a positive effect. It lathers on well and washes away easily and I'd say it does everything it sets out to do.

The scent is almost like a lemon lime soda ... I actually find the scent to be quite nice. Unfortunately, it doesn't really stick around after you wash away the lather and that's a little disappointing for me. It does seem to sink into the skin a little, so I'd recommend a boar bristle brush deep in the beard to pull the oils through the beard.

One other con is the bottle is problematic. The wash is almost too thick to properly make it out of the bottle, you have to really squeeze to get it through the lid or take the lid off entirely.

Pros:
- Moisturizes and washes well
- Good scent
- Good price, good value

Cons:
- Scent doesn't linger
- Sub-par bottle, hard to get the product out

The beard dehydrater...

Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2016

Style: Extra ConditioningVerified Purchase

Edit: I added a star, as the moisturizer is really brought out after intensive coarse brushing. I've always used a quality beard brush, but timing is very important with this product. Immediately after towel-drying your beard, if you brush the skin of your beard rather well the product becomes much more manageable in terms of not drying your beard out. I also have found that using the conditioner more than once a week-ish (albeit dependent upon physical activity that week, you might want to use it more often), can add to the drying out. Coupled with the price being a bit steep for such a small amount, I still have my qualms about the product, but as mentioned below, the simple ingredients and no added fragrance is a huge plus for me given I have a chronic conditioner that most fragrances and lotions negatively affect.
************************************************
Though the description claims to moisturize even the thirstiest or beards, this product thoroughly dries the hell out of your beard... eventually making the hair brittle and itchy. I really tried to stick with it, chiefly because of the simple ingredients and no added fragrance, but even using a quality beard oil wouldn't replenish the moisture for days after using this product.
