Quick Review
Before we dive in, here are our overall thoughts (for those who just want the basics!)
Wild Willies (Our Top Choice)
All three of the Wild Willies growth kits are tailored to a specific beard stage, so you can buy the products made to benefit your facial hair the most. The benefit? You won't be wasting money on non-essential products and tools. You’ll only be paying for the products you NEED, and still getting all the great benefits you want.
The Beard Club
Each kit is similar but includes additional products as you move up the tiers. This is great if you want to build an arsenal of The Beard Club products and tools, but they are not made for specific stages of beard growth. This means you're going to end up spending a lot more money on products that may not be necessary.

Growth Supplement

Who the Kit is Best For
The Beard Growth Kit is designed for men of all beard types who are looking to improve the overall health and appearance of their beards - whether they are just starting to grow their stubble or need to fill in pesky patches.
Key Ingredients
-

"Very happy with this product! Which is no surprise, the beard club knocks it out of the park every time. The scent is great, and subtle which I appreciate. Does exactly as a need for my thick, crazy hair. The top and sides don't get puffy/frizzy and compliments the curls in the back perfectly. Thanks for another great product BC! And just in time since I'm growing this mop out!!"

Recap and Overview
Both Wild Willies and The Beard Club offer great products for beard growth and maintenance. The main differences between the two brands are price, kits offered, and customer reviews.
Wild Willies is cheaper than The Beard Club—even with the current discount that The Beard Club offers while also offering a wider variety of products targeted to specific beard stages.
The Beard Club kits start smaller and include more products as you move up the tiers. This is great if you want a full product line, but you may be receiving (and paying for) products you don't need.
