I grew a freedom beard as soon as I entered Terminal Leave from the U.S. Army in May of 2013 and haven't looked back. It is no longer freedom beard, but it is part of my identity now. I take my beard grooming very seriously and have tried thousands of dollars of other products. I've watched many vlogs/reviews, read tons of articles on the subject, and I keep coming back to Brooklyn Grooming-Williamsburg scent products. I love how smooth and soothing the balm and oils are, and how amazing they smell. There is not a strong cologne smell, but subtle scent of awesome. I hate colognes and perfumes, so this was perfect. I have never had an issue with bad skin reactions or the products having the inability to do what it advertises. However, there have been two different occasions over the past year where the beard balms haven't been blended or melted together very well which left little balls of wax throughout instead of the usual smooth balm. But, BG was very accommodating and worked with me to solve the issue. I encourage anyone who has issues with the products to email and/or call BG and they will work with you. I highly recommend the Williamsburg scented products to any serious bearded maintainer.
