Dealing with Facial Hair and Diving Equipment

I’m curious about how others manage their beards while using diving masks. Do you trim, use sealants, or go for full-face masks? What’s worked best for you?

yeah diving with a beard can be tricky but ive found that keeping it trimmed under the nose works wonders also using a bit of silicone grease helps seal those gaps and dont forget to rinse with fresh water after to avoid salt buildup full face masks are another solid option if you dont wanna deal with the hassle

“Beard diving: the ultimate test of man vs. mask. For those of us with a Cousteau vibe, braiding or waxing longer beards can be a game-changer. Aftercare’s key—think beard oil post-dive to combat that saltwater crunch. And if all else fails, channel your inner Hemingway and embrace the full-face mask. Dive on, beard brethren!”
