Use the steel trimmer head without a comb guard for a close trim (0.5mm) or to create clean lines around your beard, neck, and sideburns. For longer beard lengths, attach one of the 4 beard and stubble guards (1mm, 3mm, 5mm, 7mm).

1. To trim hair, place the flat side of the cutting element against your skin and make strokes against the direction of hair growth.
