I can't shave my face either. Breakout real bad. But I can shave my head with no problem. Makes no dang sense at all to me.

I used my beard oil again for the first time in a couple of months. I've let my goatee grow out quite a bit, and the skin underneath is itching and flaking.

I have never understood why y'all have trouble with itching. If you already have extended hair and you are just letting it get longer, I would think you should be well passed the itching stage with what you are already starting with. So I don't get it.
This suggests to me that letting my full beard continue to grow that I would be itching terribly. But I don't. And that's with or without balms or oils.
I wonder if y'all aren't getting all the soap out of your beard and that is what is causing the itching. It takes me a long time rinsing to get my beard free of soap. And I wash it daily.
I know many say not to use soap but I've been doing it for years. I want a clean beard so it's wash and rinse daily. Now I do use my own oils and balms. I have my own unique smell as a result. Wife likes it and her and me are all I care about. Anyone else can leave the area.
So anyway, I just don't understand this itching thing. There has to be a cause. And I don't buy the growing longer as the cause. Sorry. But It just doesn't make sense as you really should be passed that stage.

Usualy the rinse cycle isn't long enough, or change shampoo brand. JMO.

Most beards are different. That's what make us unique. My beard has changed quit a bit in my life. I think age is a contributing factor in that. Whatever a man uses on his beard is his choice. If you like using beard oil, balm, axle grease or whatever and you feel good about it, man I'm good with it. If it's day old, short or long, go with it.
I've worn a beard for 25 or so years. It's not that I'm lazy, well, maybe it is.
Is it just me or has anyone else accidentally used the wrong setting on the trimmer and lopped it off before realising it maybe it's just me oh well...it will grow back

I've decided to grow mine out longer. As mentioned above, I really don't have any issue with itching after about 10 days or so from a clean shave. Mine's about an inch long now, and I'm going to try for about 4 inches or so in the coming months.

Yes I have done that a few times. It usually happens with the scissors on the mustache. If I make a mistake, I just trim it out and then let it grow out.
