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!

Great hat never expected anything less from true North
Just like Puff said, this scent is in a league of its own if you will. Clean, smooth, powerful. It's one you don't want to miss.
This one is perfect for summer (or any other season)! The strawberry is very up front along with the vanilla, giving me Pound Town vibes. The guava gives it a tart but sweet twist, adding some flair to the overall scent profile. As always, the butter itself is perfection with a smooth texture and immediate melt down in your hands. I'm definitely going to hammer through this one!
I originally bought the Ghost Malone beard conditioner and loved it so much I bought the beard wash! It does a great job of gently cleaning your beard. The scent is heavenly!
Love this one! The freshness immediately hits you but there is a deeper undertone to it. There are times that it reminds me of a brand new black leather, but so much more complex. Definitely a thumbs up if you like any of the scents listed - Cool water, citrus, oud. It's a great combination!
TNBC has the best butter hands down in my opinion. I will never go without it.
Love the scent. Lathers really well and no film residue when rinsing and you feel clean. Awesome product!
I started out with a couple of budget beard oils from Shea Moisture and Honest Amish and figured I'd incorporate this into my routine to see what the hype was all about. Just a week or two later and now I'm seriously considering ditching what I have left of the budget blends and picking up more oils from True North and some other small batch companies. The Wake Up Beard Oil is legitimately that good; it's left my beard feeling soft, full, and healthy and gets my highest recommendation.
This body wash is great, lathers like crazy and the scent is very refreshing. This one will be kept in the rotation for sure.
This is one of my favorite scents by far. The product itself is amazing—the quality of the ingredients is top-notch, and it’s probably one of the best butters in the game. The peach, pear, and apricot scents are all terrific. My wife loves them too!”
This is some great shampoo!
The scent is perfect for a refreshing wash in the morning.
Works great to hold my beard, feels good, and looks natural.
If you've ever smelled Bond [****], you know that tragrance is in a league of its own! Warm, sweet, resinous, & filled with pure class. Gotham is an S tier take on this legendary profile!
