A long beard is a long-term project. Everything you were doing at month three still applies — you just do more of it and add a few new steps.
Detangle top-down, work bottom-up
Wide-tooth comb through the tips first, then work up. Fighting tangles from the root creates more breakage.
Bigger doses
8–12 drops of oil, nickel-sized balm, both distributed all the way to the ends.
Trim the ends monthly
Split ends unravel up the shaft. A tiny snip of the very tip every 3–4 weeks preserves length.
Sleep protected
Beard bag or braid or satin pillow. Cotton pillowcases wreck long beards overnight.
