Stress doesn’t just take a toll on your mind and body—it also affects your beard. High stress levels can disrupt hair growth by slowing it down, causing thinning, and even contributing to patchy areas. Ignoring stress may be silently sabotaging your beard’s full potential. Incorporate stress management techniques like regular exercise, meditation, and better sleep into your routine. These not only improve your overall well-being but also create the right conditions for your beard to thrive.
