Product Description
Aside from adding volume and control to your beard, our Extra Grit Beard Wax works exceptionally well as a hair product to help control, shape, and also relieve frizz in your hair. It's a favorite among our local hair stylists for an all natural alternative to the chemically ridden products that are on the market today. It's a blend of organic oils, locally harvested beeswax, and natural clay to provide your beard and hair with conditioning and a nice spiced scent from the natural essential oils within. Comes in a two ounce tin packed nicely in its own box, a perfect gift! Contains zero petrochemicals, no man made preservatives or chemicals, and every ingredient is directly from nature. Made here in the U.S. by hand for an honest wage. Needless to say, we know beards. Long before the current beard trend, way back before the 60's and 70's, and long before the 20th or 19th century for that matter...beards have been an integral part of Amish culture. The care for these beards have been passed through generations of men. Honest Amish Beard Waxes are blended from premium organic oils, fruit and nut butters, essential oils, botanical additives, and locally harvested beeswax. These recipes were created centuries ago to help maintain, care, and control growing beards while protecting and conditioning the hair follicles. Extra Grit is EXCELLENT for use as a hair product! "If you re not 100% satisfied with your purchase, please return it for a full refund."

-It doesn't leave your beard feeling like there's sand in it. The grit is very fine and I only notice it when rubbing it in my hands. Don't worry about the grit!
-it is very dark, so if you have a white beard I wouldn't recommend it.
-The smell is strong in the can, but will die down after a little while. I don't think that it smells much like liquorice from the anise, more spicy like clove. As to the smell I like it a lot. The original does have a stronger anise ( liquorice smell) and I like the scent of that one too.
-It's very easy to rub into your hands and the beard. I would say softer then the original wax.
-now as to hold! Honest Amish says this is on par with the original wax, but I have found it to be slightly lighter than the original. As far as hold goes in the lineup I'd say (lightest to heaviest ) HD beard balm(light), extra grit wax(light/medium ), original wax(medium ).
-also, as advertised, it works very well as a hair balm. I have short hair about an inch or so on top and tight on the sides.
-Has a matte finish to it, and the original wax has more of a shine.
So all in all I like this wax for what it is. Great smell. Doesn't make my beard feel sandy like I thought it would. Light/mid hold(works best with a freshly shampoo'd beard, I know some only shampoo a few time per week). Works in my hair. If I would to choose one over the other I'd think I'd go with the Original wax over the extra grit(but that could change), as I like the stronger hold and I don't mind the shine. I've never tried the original in my hair, just beard.
As with all honest amish products its all made from quality ingredients and they're a great company. Hope this was helpful. And beard on!
*update*
After using the extra grit for a few more days some other things I've noticed.
-after applying to a clean beard out of the shower, it seems to almost dry and is not waxy like the original.
- it give my beard a lot of body, more than the original I'd say.
The more I use this wax the more I like it! I think that maybe I now like this more than the original. Definitely try it out and don't judge too quickly.
After using Honest Amish's "regular strength" beard wax for about a year and a half, I decided to try out the Extra Grit Beard Wax. I just finished the tin the other day. It lasted me about 3.5 months. My beard is about 4 in long and is very curly. I shower in the morning, then apply beard oil (homemade) followed up by a Cap'n Crunch Crunch Berry-sized amount of Extra Grit beard wax. Here is my review.
Grit: I believe the grit in Extra Grit is clay. Again, your mileage may vary, but some of the other reviews mentioning the grit seemed a little over dramatic after using this product myself. I never noticed any of the grit coming off onto my clothes or even my hands as I touched my beard throughout the day. I never noticed any on my pillow nor on my SO's face. It wasn't "like rubbing dirt into my beard." The grit was noticeable in the hands but all but disappeared in the beard. After working the product into my beard, I would have to gives my hands a quick wipe on my towel as there was grit in the wrinkles of my palms, but it was never hard to get clean, and in fact was quite easy.
Hold: The hold of Extra Grit is why I liked the product, but didn't love it: 4 stars vs 5. Seeing this product labelled as "Beard Wax: Extra Grit!" made me think the hold would be similar to that of the original Honest Amish beard wax, if not stronger, but I found it to be more along the lines of a heavy duty beard balm. The product itself was softer than the original which did make it easier to scoop out with your thumb vs the original, but in my experience the on-the-beard hold was weaker. If I were to list beard products in order of increasing hold, it would be as follows: Au natural, Beard Oil, Beard Balm, Extra Grit Beard Wax, Original Beard Wax. This product would be perfect if you need something a little stronger than a balm but a little weaker than the Original Beard Wax, but for me, I need a little more hold than Extra Grit can provide.
Scent: Extra Grit has a stronger licorice/clove scent than the original beard wax. It is not unpleasant and not overpowering and fades after a while, which in my book is a good thing.
Overall, I am glad I tried Extra Grit out but I will be going back to the Honest Amish Original beard wax. Since they are about the same price, I would recommend trying Extra Grit on your search for beard products that work with your own beard.
I wake up in the morning and my curly stubborn beard has still kept it shape due to this wax. This is a great dependable everyday wax that you can use. I have the original wax and much prefer the extra grit.
Keep in mind that I have a black beard so there may be truth to what people say about lighter beards. If you have a white or lighter beard, do your research first.
The price for this wax is fair for what you get. All natural and no chemical additives. High quality oils are in here for nourishment as well.

I’ve now ordered it again in 2021 and the product has gone from good to great!!! There is no longer a liquorice smell and the wax has more a neutral tea/peppermint smell. It still has very good hold for shaping a beard (though it’s more a balm with wax and hold, as opposed to having the strength of a pure wax), and thankfully Honest Amish has solved the grit under the nails issue!
I have Afro hair and would 100% recommend this product. It is dark in texture so may work better with darker coloured hair, however it does dissolve well into the beard.
I liked it back then, but I’m a true fan now. Safe to say I’ll be sticking with this product for the foreseeable future.
