I'm like @FatBack in the sense that in the beginning I was washing every day. As my beard grew, I staeted washing less. Now I wash every 2 weeks with either Pine Tar soap, Honest Amish Beard Soap or Brommers. Prior to washing I do a hot oil treatment of Castor and Olive oil. And the rest of the time I just rinse off with cool water and apply oil. I must admit though I am interested in going for once a month washings. The only thing stopping me is the fact that I am still waxing my mustache and I need to wash out the residue. That and the fact that I like the hot oil treatnents, and they need to be washed out, not rinsed.

Thanks for sharing your journey abn82, and great beard!
