Beard between visits: What to trim, what to leave.

Short answer

Trim the neckline and stray hairs on your cheeks. Leave the shape and the fade into the beard for your barber.

In detail

A few minutes at home keeps the beard tidy until your next visit. Don't touch the shape.

  1. Neckline.

    One finger above the Adam's apple. Trim everything below.

  2. Cheeks.

    Only the strays above the line we set.

  1. Moustache.

    Comb down, trim what covers the lip.

  2. Leave the fade.

    Blending into the sideburns is the hard part. Let us do it.
