New bloke on the block: The Beardist

Are you like one of those Bollywood actors with zero facial hair but are capable of incredible stunts like Jackie Chan? Or are you one of those people who have whiskers instead of a beard although you will soon be 25 years old? 

If you are one of those people like me, then I am afraid, this write-up is not for you. 

Who am I to write this article you must be wondering? To inform the majority of the nation's people who are blessed with a beard of what is every beard's paradise. Got your attention yet? 

The Beardist caters to those of you who want to look after and maintain God's manliest gift and elegantly walk around, awing people, making them wonder how you gave such finesse to your beard. The answer is not as difficult as it seems; you are simply a devotee of The Beardist.

Chemical fertilisers, pesticides and herbicides - these were the chemicals not put in growing the plants from which the oil was derived to create the perfect little elixir of beard oil. Don't worry, The Breardist did not accidently pour in chemical X like Professor Utonium. Bottom line, they are supported by Organic Harvest Bangladesh, a renowned source of genuineness. This guarantees that the products are healthy and skin friendly.

As of now, there are only two available oil products, Musky Mint and Lavender. Wrung from essential oils, Musky Mint has a strong, manly scent which lasts as long as infinity, while Lavender has a fine, fruity scent to it. 

Both these oil products are made keeping the science of maintaining beard as they contain Carrier Oil which keeps your facial hair soft and hydrated. In addition, they prevent dehydration and hence protect them from "beardruff."

Here's a good news for those of you who are unsatisfied with your patchy beard. Castor oil in the product will help your facial hair's growth. 

Did You Know?

The facial hair releases sebum oil which keeps your beard hydrated. With short beard, you do not have to worry about hydration however, as the beard gets longer, not enough sebum oil is produced to keep the entirety of your facial hair hydrated. The more the hydration, the more the growth.

What's more helpful are the regular tips posted on the page which tells you the dos and don'ts of maintaining and growing a lustrous beard. Beard maintenance is fairly a new concept in Bangladesh and it's wonderful to see someone addressing this niche yet essential market.

Speak to one of The Beardist's consumers and they'll hand you a list of its benefits and why you should buy them. People with dry dull cactus like beards have used the product to see themselves from hating to loving their facial hair. Smooth and tidy would best describe their beard which also gives off an appealing manly scent. To sum it all up, they are extremely effective.

More to the joy of its users, they will soon be introducing beard kits, beard balms, scissors specific to grooming the beard and mirrors to make the experience of growing and maintaining facial hair fun.

Now that you have found what you had been craving to get your hands on for years right here in Bangladesh, you no longer have to nag to your best friend to get them from abroad. Quickly go to their Facebook page and order one now according to your preference.

May the Daari be yours!
