Bevel Beard Balm vs Wild Willies: An Overview
So, we’ve narrowed down the options to two best-selling beard balms out there: Bevel Beard Balm vs Wild Willies.
Wild Willies is a household name when it comes to beard products and is usually the no.1 choice for men who love to groom their beards. Unarguably, Wild Willies is the fastest-growing beard brand in North America.
On the other hand, Bevel is synonymous with top-of-the-line razors, trimmers, and shaving kits, not necessarily for its beard products. Bevel products are made for black men with curly hair and skin.
Beard Balms - Wild Willies VS Bevel - Key features
Styling
Wild Willies:
Wild willies beard balm helps to tame, soften and shape your beard into a statement of its own. It gets rid of coarse texture, prevents split ends, prevents beard dandruff, and improves your appearance. It keeps follicles moist to promote beard growth from the inside out.
The balm softens up quickly in your fingers and slides into your skin and beard with ease. Using a brush to spread the balm ensures a manageable shapely beard and prevents flyaways during the day...unless it's real windy.
Works equally well for thick, long, short, or sparse beards.
Bevel Beard Balm:
Bevel beard balm is easy to apply to your hair to lock moisture and reduce frizz to help you style your beard without leaving a sticky finish. It softens coarse ends and reduces frizz and flyaways.
None of the balms leave behind a sticky finish or feel oily.
