How to Trim a Beard

A little trimming allows for maximum impact. Gillette® has all the tips, tricks and tools you need to make your beard a showstopper.


Step 1Trim 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.

Step 2Brush out your beard. This can detangle knots and set your beard up for optimal grooming.

Step 3Use the All Purpose Gillette Styler® to get an even trim – its three guide combs will give you consistency. For the best trimming, pull your skin taught and trim in a sweeping motion away from your face.

The All Purpose Gillette Styler is our favorite tool for beard trimming.

Step 4Remember, there’s no undo button for bad trimming, so start with a longer guide comb to control length. For the best styling, trim your beard shorter on your neck and cheeks. Keep hair longer on your chin to create a fade. Use these styles for inspiration.

Step 5After trimming, brush your mustache hair downward and remove the guide comb to buzz the hair that extends over your lip.

Step 6If necessary, follow up with scissors to attack any stragglers head-on.

Step 7Use beard oil to keep your beard soft and healthy. These lightweight oils help keep moisture in your beard hair and skin to soften and maintain unruly beards and moustaches.
