How to Trim Your Beard

For the man who is growing a beard, dreaming of having a beard, or is the master of beards, we have some video tutorials and simple how-to’s on taming the mane that adorns your face. From scruff, to full out beard, there is an art to tastefully trimming and shaving your facial hair to achieve the look you are going for. Whether it took you years to grow that beard (we won’t tell) or you have to shave your 5 o’clock shadow at noon as well as night, we think these videos will be super helpful to you.

The Art of Manliness

We love the Art of Manliness blog, and the way they simply lay out a good beard trim for a real man. Simple and sweet, this tutorial addresses a lot of questions about how to get the basics done for a big and burly beard. This is a lumberjack must-watch.

If you mustache, then we recommend this simple method for trimming your mustache properly. Comb all hairs to the side first, and clip on the desired setting. Then comb down over the lip and remove the guard, to trim anything that hangs over onto the lip. This ensures an even trim and a clean-cut lip.

The Gentleman’s Cove

This video tutorial is quite insightful when it comes to shaping your beard. A woman contours, but a man shapes his beard by trimming it. In this video, you will find the best way to shape your beard to fit your facial structure.

Here’s a little trick for when it’s best to trim the beard: trim after you shower and when your beard is dry—your hair will be hydrated and easier to cut and will give you a better idea of how it will look once it’s tamed. If you trim right after your shower, you risk having a different looking trim than what you expected.
