Beard Shields - Know The Facts
Posted by Friday 16 October 2015
Beard snoods, there are multiple reasons why they should be worn - and we want you to know why.
Fact: Any mesh structure is ineffective at preventing direct fingertip contact as the finger moulds itself through the mesh structure. The result? Direct contact with the skin. As we all know direct contact can be dangerous - both the scalp and face being a potential disease carrier. Wearing the correct beard snood can not only prevent this direct contact, but is also crucial for the following reasons:
- There are two times the quantity of hairs in a beard as opposed to the head by area
- In total by area, you are likely to shed 6 times more hairs from the beard as you are from the head
- Growth rate for hair in beards is reported to be between 0.27 and 0.4mm in 24 hours
Here at ABurnet, we have the solution against contamination when it comes to facial hair - our HairBarrier Beard Snood.
We are proud of the material of our beard snoods - similar to that of the KleenCap, independently tested to be 99.9% effective against Gram positive and Gram negative Bacteria, Fungi and Mould.
