Full Beards and Beard Transplantation: Getting that Full Beard
Beards are trending and the emerging market in men’s grooming indicates it will continue to grow. The sales of products designed to help maintain healthy, soft beards is expected rise to $43.1 billion by 2026 (https://earthweb.com/beard-statistics/). 
This includes beard trimmers, waxes, beard oil, cleansers and special shaving gels and creams. Bay Area men ready to join the beard culture should know it won’t happen overnight. Depending on the man, growing a full beard can take two to six months. Genetics make a difference, too; some men are “harrier” than others and can produce a beard quickly. Others can barely get a mustache to show itself. This could be the reason why facial hair transplants are also in vogue for those not genetically predisposed to growing a thick, complete, and glossy beard.
The beard transplant market is expected to increase to $684.4 million by 2028 (https://www.yahoo.com/now/global-beard-transplant-market-size-155000987.html). Our clinic has noticed this trend too. We have men contacting us wanting to talk about facial hair transplants and their dreams for the perfect beard (https://siliconvalleyhairinstitute.com/beard-transplant/).
Why are men so interested in beards? Here are a few reasons:
- Around 75% of men in the U.S. say they feel more masculine and confident with a beard.
- A beard can help avoid irritating the skin with daily shaving. Men struggling with sensitive skin can create rashes and risk more cuts, acne, and infections from shaving daily.
- Facial hair can help protect one’s face from harmful UV light, which can help prevent the signs of aging.
- Good beard care products like beard oil can keep the skin, as well as the facial hair, soft and youthful.
- Over half of women polled prefer a man with a beard and mustache (https://beardoholic.com/why-do-women-love-beards/).
It’s clear there are many benefits to the man who chooses to maintain a beard.
Are You Ready for World Beard Day?
Males who enjoy displaying their facial hair proudly even have their day. World Beard Day (https://worldbeardday.com/) is internationally celebrated on the first Saturday in September. Men across the globe are encouraged to honor their masculine identity in their own “manly” way. That can include barbecuing and organizing fun games. There are groups of men who fully embrace “beard culture” and compete each year to show off their creative facial hair. The Northern California Beard and Moustache Competition is one example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=we8KdaP1NRw.
The beard trend is getting big in the San Francisco Bay too. Men of all ages are embracing this masculine grooming practice. Unfortunately, as noted, developing the perfect beard is an individual experience. Some of the most common complaints about beard growth are patchiness at 42% and uneven color at 31%. 40% of men said they would sacrifice their coffee for a perfect beard! Robotic facial hair transplantation may be the answer for men who struggle to get the beard they want. The precise follicular hair extraction and transplantation can create a thick, beautiful, and natural-looking beard.
