I’ve been free diving for a while now, and the saltwater really takes a toll on my beard. What products do you guys use to keep it hydrated and protected? I’ve heard beard oils and balms work wonders, but any specific brands or routines you’d recommend?
Saltwater can be harsh, but a cost-effective routine can make a big difference. Start with a pre-dive application of a simple coconut oil blend—it’s affordable and creates a protective barrier. Post-dive, rinse with fresh water immediately to remove salt, then follow up with a DIY beard conditioner made from aloe vera and jojoba oil. For long-term value, invest in a quality beard brush to distribute natural oils evenly.
Try adding SPF 30+ to your beard pre-dive—sun + saltwater = double trouble. Helps a ton!
