Most beard washes are shampoo with a beard on the label. They're mostly cleanser, and the sulfates in a lot of them strip out the natural oil your skin makes to keep your beard soft. You step out of the shower with a beard like straw and skin that's itching an hour later. Then you put on beard oil to fix damage that happened five minutes earlier.
My co-wash flips that ratio: 90% conditioner and 10% gentle cleanser. It's strong enough to wash out a day's dirt, sweat, and leftover product, and gentle enough to leave your natural oil where it belongs.
I use it every day myself. I go to the gym and hike in the mountains, and the co-wash is all my beard needs. Because it's mostly conditioner, it won't dry your beard out no matter how often you wash. If your job leaves you covered in grease or grime, pair it with my Charcoal & Clay Soap for a deeper clean, then follow with the co-wash.
If your beard is long, coarse, curly, or dry, if it frizzes or turns brittle after you wash it, or if the skin underneath itches, this is the wash to use.
Wet your beard, work the co-wash all the way down to the skin, and rinse. Follow with beard oil, balm, or butter while your beard's still damp.
It comes in all 18 kühn scents, so your wash can match your oil, balm, or butter. Not sure which one? Take the scent finder.

I learned about Kuhn beard products from my brother-in-law. While I have used Kuhn beard oil for a couple years, I decided to give the beard wash a try as well. I have been very pleased with the wash. It helps my beard to feel softer and be less dry. Nobody wants beard dandruff. 😖 Kuhn beard wash will stay on my list as long as I keep my beard. I recommend it along with the beard oil.
I can't talk highly enough about this gentle wash. It does a great job cleaning without stripping my beard or skin and leaving it dry. I haven't really ever found such a pleasant skin/hair cleaning product. It appears to also be color-safe. I dye my beard with Just for Men to hide the greys, and found out painfully my old face wash removed the dye prematurely. I'm happy to report that Co-Wash does not have the same issue. I went with the Apple & Bourbon scent which is absolutely incredible. It smells like Autumn festivals on the Pacific Northwest. I will be adding this scent as a beard oil or balm to my collection next. Seriously, try this beard wash. It's something else.
Great scent, and leaves the beard soft and very comfortable
Great quality soap/conditioner will most likely not get the cherry pipe scent again hopefully my next bottle is a bit stronger scented
Good and light. Also seems to be somewhat conditioning instead of stripping everything from the beard. Scent doesn't last when washed so I'm not sure if there is any reason to have a scent on these aside from aromatherapy.
Leaves my beard soft and clean great scent
Amazing smell and feels wonderful!! I have never had any itchiness with it, my beard feels very healthy and soft. This is after about two weeks of use
I wanted to try a natural product that would help to moisturize and wash my moustache. Unfortunately, due to my career I can't have a beard, but this product has really helped to keep my moustache looking and feeling great. Also, I really enjoy the smell. I want to try some of the other products and test out some other smells as well. Would recommend 100%.
Since a cosmetic product can be of great quality but still react poorly depending on the individual, I like to provide context for my review. My beard is medium length made up of really fine wavy hair. I like to straighten out my beard and I avoid any balms, waxes, or heavy styling products in order to leave it silky and smooth. The co-wash has done a good job at keeping my beard feeling clean and fresh. As I am using this alongside other products, it's hard to tell the extent of the effects. Once you really work it into your beard it does a great job at keeping my beard feeling silky.
The best Co-wash I've found! Mild, rich and almost creamy texture that really leaves my beard feeling clean and refreshed! And the apple bourbon scent is awesome!
Use it everyday. Doesn't dry out my beard. Birchwood is one of my favorites.
Excellent product makes my beard silky and smooth.
This is my first time purchasing the co-wash and it’s unbelievable. I grabbed the Bair Canyon and I’m glad I did. It smells great and my beard feels so soft. I never achieved this texture with a major brand. Chris has been great responding when I have questions and I won’t look anywhere else. I’ve been a customer for about 3 years.
This stuff seriously softens up the beard. Coupled with the oil and the butter my beard has been the healthiest it has ever been. I only knocked one star off because the label disintegrated within a couple of weeks in the shower and got everywhere.
Great stuff
This brand has been a mainstay in my rotation pretty much since I grew my beard. Their stuff is top quality and the cowash has become static in my routine when I'm not doing a deep clean. Beard's softer, more manageable, and the scents are great.
I like to shampoo and it makes my beard feel nice and soft. However one thing I would suggest is labelling. Soon as that label hits the water it starts rubbing off and when you're putting the shampoo on your hands in order to mix it in, you have paper also mixed in with the shampoo. The labelling I would change. People are showering and using the beard shampoo so therefore I wouldn't put paper labelling on it. Just put labelling directly on the bottom.
First time using co-wash. My beard feels soft, non-greasy, and hydrated. You can also use it on your head hair with the same great results. I would definitely recommend it to my friends
The Co Wash does a great job. My beard does feel soft and clean, and the scent is great!! As with all products, I've tried from Kune the ingredients are top notch and the customer service from Chris is Steller. Truly a great product!!
Perfect. Beard feels good with it being so soft and manageable. Recommend to anyone! Only regret is I didn’t buy it sooner.
I love the co-wash. Cherry pipe is phenomenal in scent. I like to use non- scented when I switch different scents with the beard balms. The only critique I would have is maybe just needs to gather up just a bit more
The cowash is like no other product. I’m also using the beard /hair/skin moisturizer, the oils and the newest and best addition is the hair crème medium hold. Very happy with their products. For those that have flyaways the haar crème ended mine in first use. Good stuff, better company
My go to beard wash. I've tried countless products from so many different companies and Kühn is the only brand that works and smells great.
I love the products and the energy Chris puts out. I had a shipping issue, I reported it and it was corrected immediately.
One of the best beard washes I've used and beard feels amazing after using it , highly recommend
Best beard wash I’ve tried.
I use this every day in the shower and only use shampoo once a week. My beard has never felt better!
Another great product. Will be continuing purchasing from this brand for life
I’ve been using Co-Wash and I really like how gentle it feels on my beard. It cleans without stripping everything out, so my beard still feels soft and moisturized after I rinse it out. What I noticed most is that it works well for keeping my beard fresh between regular washes. It has a smooth, creamy feel and makes my routine feel easier, especially on days when I don’t want anything too harsh. Overall, it’s been a great product for giving my beard a clean feel without drying it out.
Great stuff. So fresh and so clean clean!
I have tried many beard products but returned to using Kuhn cowash because it is not only a great product but is more economical than others without sacrificing quality and effectiveness. The scent is very nice and my wife likes the scent too, which is a deciding factor.
Great product. Exactly what I was looking for. Not greasy, makes my beard soft, and the fragrance is just right.
Great product that leaves you beard soft.
Didn't like 5he smell. I do like how soft it makes my beard
Have a hard time finding beard wash for my coarse beard, but this one is amazing. Softens it right up
Love the natural ingredients and scents! My beard loves it too!
I was missing a step in my beard routine. The routine I was missing in my option is the most vidal, your beard washing, or should I say co-washing. Not everyone that sells beard products, sells a beard co-wash, not only that, try to find a company that sells a variety of co-wash with an array of different scents. Now try to find one that won't strip the natural oils from your beard, and something you can use daily. KUKN Co-wash!!! ..... Highly recommended.
Chris was very helpful and is a great guy to do business with. The beard products I ordered have been awesome and last all day. They smell amazing and they have made my beard really soft without leaving it oily like other brands. Misty Mountain,Cherry Pipe,and Mountain Whiskey smell amazing and there are plenty more scents I cant wait to try.
The co-wash I ordered is light and leaves my beard feeling fresh and smooth.
This stuff is awesome. Leaves your beard good n' soft. Just know, this stuff is not supposed to lather like soap or shampoo does - it's meant to moisturize. Leave it in for at least a couple mins; the longer, the better. I slap it on first thing and rinse it out last - works every time.
