How to trim a beard

Beards may be attractive in their own right. Facial hair makes a strong fashion statement, whether neatly trimmed as a goatee or grown out into a complete neck warmer. But this does not imply that a beard can grow as it pleases. If you want to avoid being called a "bluebeard," our comprehensive beard-trimming guide is here to help you achieve that goal.


How does one go about cutting a beard?


A beard without proper trimming is facial hair sticking out in random directions. The standard beard trim should have a uniform length throughout the face and a clean neckline, cheek line, mustache, and lipline. This is the method for doing so.


How to trim a beard properly


From the first cut to the final shaping of your mustache, it's all laid out here.


The all-over beard trim


Get that beard clean and dry. The easiest technique to beard trim is to begin with, the longest hair and work your way down. Use the longest blade setting on your beard trimmer and give it a thorough trimming. To reduce bulk, shave in the opposite direction of hair growth. Repeat the process using the shorter trim settings to get the desired length.


Define your neckline


Put a finger horizontally over your Adam's Apple, then cut a vertical strip below this point for the ideal beard neckline. Begin in the middle of your face and go outward beneath your jawline to one side. While cutting a thick beard, the neckline is important; if you simply have stubble, you may skip this step. Struggling? For further information, please refer to our neckline beard guide.


Choose your cheek line.


Let your beard's cheek line alone if you like it this way. A sharper, cleaner appearance is achieved by trimming the sideburns to a straight or slightly rounded line. If you drop your cheekbones, your face will seem longer.


Shape up your mustache


If you want your mustache to blend in with your beard:

  1. Cut it to the same length.
  2. Smile while closing your lips to reveal a smooth lip line.
  3. Trim the bottom of your mustache and keep it neat.
