Yeah, it's funny how much more we notice facial hair once we start cultivating it ourselves. Get used to those comments too. Not only are you noticing beards now but people will start noticing how fine yours is too

If you're showering twice daily then I would also apply the oil twice a day. If it feel like your beard is getting oily, or if you have oily skin to begin with, you may want to do it just once per day.

Cheers!
