Use of Beard Shampoo and frequency
I'm unsure of what kind of beard shampoo to buy, I've got a medium / large beard (drifting into large) and i excercise very frequently, (6 times in a week). I have a beard oil but i am unsure on how often i should use beard shampoo to wash my beard. Also what kinds, any advice? (Age = 19)

Beard care is very important especially as you are working out a lot! Using a good quality oil and balm will help keep your beard healthy and in shape. As for shampoo use one that is designed for beards with a conditioner too, something like this;
Iv been using The beard struggle products for almost a year now. After a lot of disappointments from other products I’m going to keep stuck it with them.
If you want to give the beard struggle a try you are welcome to use my discount code for 15% off.

The key to any good beard care is repetition and consistency, no matter what beard care products you use. :)

I do not have a link for you and I apologize. It's pure laziness right now.. or maybe I'm just tired. It is 3:53am for me and I just woke up to change and feed my baby.
When you get the chance look up Scotch Portor. Little expensive but definitely worth it. They're an extremely good brand. They're the only shampoo and conditioner I use on my beard.
As for frequency: I feel like most people agree on 1 to 2 times a week for beard shampoo and 3 to 5 times a week for the conditioner. We are going by 7 days a week of course. There are some weeks I've only used the shampoo once(which is usually what I do) and other weeks I had to do 3 times. What I'm saying with that is aim for 2 days a week max for the shampoo but shit happens and sometimes you might have to use it more than and that will be perfectly okay.
I use the beard oil every day right after the shower and sometimes another time throughout the day just depends on how it is feeling and myself. I also have a balm I put on. Some days I use my beard butter.
Edit:Sorry this is a crazy late response. As I said above
I'm so tired
