Best mask for beard!

RE: Best mask for beard!
Welcome!  Just a hint - if you have trouble with mask links with a beard, you can try chin straps under the mask.  I found that some are very effective at stopping leaks.  However, bearded men are all different - you will have to experiment.

RE: Best mask for beard!
Not to revive an old thread. But what I found to work with my mustache and beard is silicone ear plugs. I use the Amara View and it leaks like crazy. I seen these in the store and decided to experiment. I roll a few out into cylinders and put them around my mask where the mask meets my face. When I put the mask on, the silicone softens as it warms to my skin and conforms to my face and beard hairs. I now get no leaks and a mask that works with my beard and mustache.
