How To Make A Glitter Beard

There are several ways to make a glitterbeard. You can buy a pre-packed kit which includes everything that you need, or you can purchase everything individually. Here are the items you will need to make this:

  • Glitter: You can use a single color or multiple colors. Glitter comes in different sizes, and while the smaller pieces may give you a more uniform coverage, it will be harder to get out.
  • Beard Oil or Hair Gel: The glitter will not stick well in your beard, but if it is heavily moisturized, it will hold. You can use either product, and some men see better results with each.

Step 1

The first step is to put some beard oil into your beard. You can also use hair gel if you have some of that laying around. This will allow the glitter to stick to your facial hair. Any thick beard oil will work, but if you want one that smells like Christmas in a bottle, go with Badger beard oil. You can also use hair gel like this from Amazon.

Step 2

Once you have gel or oil in your beard, then you can take any standard glitter and sprinkle it in your beard. You can decorate it any way you like.

Step 3

As an optional step, you can lightly spray some hair spray in your beard over the glitter. This may help to keep it in place. Obviously, you want to be careful with the spray.

Here is a video tutorial on how to apply glitter to your beard.

How To Remove Glitter From Your Facial Hair

The best way to remove it from your beard is to take a shower and use soap and warm water. It may take you a good 10-15 minutes to get everything out depending on how thick your beard is and how much glitter you used. It may take an extra shower the next day to get rid of everything, so if you have some extremely important event where you have to look your best, then you should do a trial run to see how easy the stuff will come out of your beard.
