Review (4/5): The power of peppermint! (And other natural stuff thats cool i guess)
I've had a beard for 3 years. It's pretty thick and heavy and tends to grow in thickness/volume and not length. It's more like a face afro, if you will. Overall it's a pretty healthy beard but I decided to give Wild Willie's a shot since I like their beard butter so much.
First off I when the bottle arrived i really thought they werr small. So for $30 i wasnt sure if it was money well spent. Time will tell.
Second I love the peppermint smell. I don't feel it's overpowering at all and find it refreshing in the morning. The shampoo lathers really well and a dime size goes a long way, even in my thick beard. We do have soft water FYI, so that usually helps any soap/shampoo lathers better. It feels like it cleans really well with out drying my beard out.
The conditioner goes a long way as well. About a dime to penny size drop is all I need depending on how thick my beard has gotten. I let the conditioner sit for about 5 minutes to let it really work in. It leaves a nice cool tingling feeling on my face and has the great peppermint smell. When I rinse it, it doesn't leave a heavy conditioner feel and rinses cleanly.
Overall I think it does a good job. It leaves my beard moisturized and not dried out and somewhat soft. Definitely keeps my beard looking healthy and shiny. In fact, while I actually get a lot of compliments on having a really great beard; once I started using these products I got so many more compliments. Now, that may just be a coincidence.
Overall I'm so far satisfied. Both shampoo and conditioner have lasted about a month with less than half used. Both of which I use on a daily basis.
