If you wear a beard, you must have noticed how constraining it is to post a "barrier mask" for COVID-19. As soon as you put it on, you feel cramped, the hair takes up all the space the mask offers, you breathe badly...
And I haven't even talked about when you take it off: the mask leaves marks, your beard hair is disheveled. In short, a real catastrophe.
Fortunately, some artists and manufacturers have taken the plunge and offer us masks specially made for bearded men.
Special barrier masks for beards: effective and fashionable!
There is no secret: COVID masks specially designed for bearded men come to save the day!
They are generally longer and wider, which allows your beard to fit in without rubbing all day and your hair can breathe a little more.
Made of multi-layered cotton, their shape is adapted to protect you and those around you.
In addition, the designs are quite beautiful, we combine here three things:
- safety
- comfort
- the beauty!

Other solutions and measures that bearded people can take against the mask
Taking care of your beard with the right products and accessories
To keep a beautiful beard and healthy hair despite the coronavirus mask, I advise you to :
- Wash your beard and face well, morning and/or evening with a suitable soap or a beard shampoo
- Use oils at night before going to bed to moisturize and nourish it
- Brush it well, using a boar bristle brush to remove a maximum of dead skin and exfoliate your skin
Shorten the beard by a few centimeters
I know, shaving your beard is fishing. But for some people, it's so dense and big that just wearing the mask prevents them from breathing, or worse: the beard smells bad because of the breath.
It is certainly the most radical solution, but surely the most effective, it's up to you...
Conclusion on beard masks
Pour conclure cet article, je dirais tout simplement que le masque et la barbe ne sont pas compatibles aux premiers abords. Comme nous l’avons vu, le port du masque barrière n’apporte que des complications avec la barbe, et c’est pire si vous avez une grosse barbe bien longue.
Heureusement, des solutions existes comme les masques pour barbus, qui sont spécialement fabriqués par des passionnés pour s’adapter à la barbe, autant en longueur qu’en largeur. Ces masques protègent tout aussi bien que d’autres masques en tissu, donc pourquoi s’en priver ?
