FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What do you recommend I use in my daily beard care routine? Your beard care routine is as unique as you. There is no one right way to follow, it's a matter of finding what works best for you that you can stick to and see results! We always recommend starting with a Beard Oil as the most basic form of beard care, but if you need more help please email us! We love to talk about beard care and would love to help tailor a routine that works best for you!
How do I use your products? Our products were carefully created and tested (only on humans!) to promote healthy hair and skin. You can find how to use instructions on each product as well as more detailed instructions here on our site on each product page. We strongly suggest the less is more approach. You can always dial it up and add more, but a little goes a long way with True North Co. products. Start with a couple drops, or a pea sized amount and slowly add more as needed based on length and thickness.
Balm, Butter, Oil...what's the difference? All beards need moisture, some more than others. Some beards require more specific care. Here's the breakdown:
- Beard Oil should be used as a daily light weight moisturizer at the roots aka your follicle. This keeps the skin under your beard happy. Happy skin means a healthy beard. We recommend you use your Beard Oil daily.
- Beard Butter should be used as a light/medium moisturizing treatment for your hair. We like to use it overnight to allow it to sink in and really soften those whiskers but you can use it in your daytime routine as well. We recommend using Beard Butter consistently to your liking, but every day is not necessary.
- Beard Balm is for those looking to add moisture while sculpting and styling during the day. Our Balm is a light/medium hold that will keep flyaways in line.
My Beard Butter/Balm melted, what should I do? Don't worry, a melted Butter or Balm can be saved. The consistency may change slightly, but it will still work just as well. Just pop it into your refrigerator (1 hr) or freezer (30 min) to help bring it back to its original form.
Who can use our products? While we are a beard company, we encourage ANYONE to try our products! Your oil, balm, soap, butter, etc. don't know your age, race, gender, or even if you have a beard. Our products can be used in many different ways and can serve different purposes that we may not have even thought of yet. That's the beauty of using all natural products. Just avoid your eyes. And definitely don't eat them.
My Butter/Balm feels gritty, is it ok to use? Definitely. Using all natural products can sometimes mean small inconsistencies. No two snowflakes are the same in nature and sometimes our products can look or feel different due to many different circumstances outside of our control. Give your Butter/Balm a moment to warm up between your fingers before you apply it and it should be smooth sailing!
Let customers speak for us
from 2136 reviewsReceived as a gift, would never have bought for myself and now I'm OBSESSED! Love it.
I picked up Winter Woods and Black Widow in this order. While WW is more fresh, they both have an amazing woody vibe. My favorite profile being a woodsy blend, these two made me happy.
Black Widow comes across as a winter, deep(almost wet) woody blend with the depth I believe coming from the licorice/anise. I love this stuff. You can pick up a tad bit of that pear as it unfolds through the middle of the scent about 30+ mins after application.
We can always start off a review that TNBC is top level, as in the top 2-3 of any company and product line for men’s grooming and beard care.
With that said, the scent arrives with an up front aromatic and classy pop. Some dark citrus comes in right away along with some floral, way in the background.
It has somewhat of a cologne vibe, but overall a manly scent. I pick up a sophisticated feel, while still being playful and a touch of sweetness. Mysterious for sure!
Like the title says, I should've bought this sooner! It's a great conditioner that's easy-in and easy-out and is super-effective on my gray beard. The vanilla scent is fluffy and smells incredible! Don't make the same mistake I did, just pick it up now!
Let me start out by saying I have really dry, rough, red, irritated skin due to weather, work, and eczema. I have bought and tried many different lotions over the years, True North Miracle Lotion is an absolute gem. A must have in any men's grooming essentials that at least for me gives instant relief! I bought both fragrance free and the black cherry scented, both get the job done. If you need a good moisturizer and after work irritation relief... look no further mates the miracle is here!
Love this stuff. Great for the skin, new favorite body wash
For the longest time my beard has always bothered me in one spot, my right cheek. I had a large circle area and patches around it that would not grow hair (old burn).
After using the Wake Up Beard Oil I can see new hair growing in the area! There is still a circle of no hair, but its about %75 smaller. 50% of the patches around it are also gone.
My wife is loving her Shampoo & Conditioner! Her hair looks great & looks healthy. She was having problems with other Hair Products, that is why we decided to try TNBC products. She has even received compliments from other ladies, on how good her hair looks. Thanks TNBC!
Another EXCELLENT creation from TNBC! This has become another go-to that's perfect for springtime. It's an incredibly fresh scent with some mild earthiness that really sets it off. The butter itself is smooth, melts immediately, and it's every bit the strength of the oil. Highly recommend!
You dont need alot to lather. Makes the beard soft!
Another amazing product from True North. Leave my hair soft and smooth and it feels good getting products from a local company with great people
When it comes to combs never settle for less always use Chicago combs built to last that’s all that I use
