Facial Hair Styles: The Van Dyke Beard

Beard Grooming – The Van Dyke Beard
A full goatee with a floating moustache – that’s the Van Dyke beard. With the All Purpose Gillette STYLER, you can achieve this look.
The Van Dyke Beard look
Powerful men have worn – and continue to wear it. There are countless facial hair styles, but this doesn’t mean that trimming a beard will be complicated. Here’s a simple set of steps to get you on your way to the popular Van Dyke beard style:
Step 1
Select a Fixed-Length Comb for TrimmingThe right comb length on your trimmer can help you style your look. The All Purpose Gillette STYLER comes with three comb attachments (2mm, 4mm, 6mm) for you to choose from.
Select your styler comb length
Step 2
Trim your facial hairEven out your beard hair length with the trimmer. Trimming hairs before shaving can help reduce tug and pull while shaving, and this can help prevent clogged blades.
Trim your facial hair
Step 3
Define Your Beard Shape Remove your trimmer’s comb attachment and trim your beard to define the Van Dyke Beard shape. For the best style results, keep the hair shorter on your neck and cheeks.
Define the shape
Step 4
Check for symmetry as you goBut be careful not to trim too much off in an effort to look even.
Check for symmetry
Step 5
Prep Your FaceRinse your face with warm water to help hydrate your hair in preparation for shaving. Then, lather up the parts of your face that you want to shave completely bare—the non-Van Dyke parts—with a shave gel. Using a shave gel can help prevent nicks, cuts, and irritation.
Prep your face
Step 6
Shave with Light, Gentle StrokesAttach the razor blades attachment onto your Gillette STYLER handle and shave with light, gentle strokes, to give yourself a close shave. Any Fusion blade refill fits with STYLER.

Step 7
Rinse Your Blades OftenRinsing the blades often throughout your shave helps to prevent buildup of hairs and shaving cream on the blade edges and cartridge; this helps keep your razor performing at its best.
Rinse your blades
Step 8
Edge with the Precision TrimmerOn the back of all Fusion razors is a precision blade; use this to help define the chin strip shape and achieve clean edges.

Step 9
Rinse, Towel, and MoisturiseRinse off your face with cool water. Towel off, and then apply a hydrating aftershave lotion or balm to help soothe your skin.
Rinse off, towel dry and moisturise
You have just mastered the Van Dyke beard style!With Gillette razors and trimmers, your personal grooming possibilities are endless.
Congratulations
