Ahoy, Mateys! The Cap’n often talks about how ye can best take care of yer best asset. Today I wanna tell ye about some of the mistakes ye can make when takin’ care of yer beard. After all, as they say, ye learn a lot more from yer mistakes than ye do from yer successes….
Ahoy, Mateys! Let’s tackle a more serious subject this week: the effect beard dyes can have on your body. Many of you already know why I created Blackbeard for Men – because my formerly roguishly handsome mug turned gray and made me look old. So I did what many of you have tried as well:…
Ahoy, Mateys! The Cap’n’s been goin’ on and on about how to shape yer beard and make it all it can be. But we’ve been gettin’ lots of questions from first-timers lately… or, as the Cap’n likes to call ‘em, beard virgins. Pirates who have never taken the beard journey and are afraid of rough…
Ahoy Mateys! Last week we talked about takin’ care of yer eyebrows. This week we wanna talk about yer sideburns.
