Trimming Techniques
For best results, ensure your beard is clean and dry before trimming. Use smooth, even strokes against the direction of hair growth. Start with a longer setting and gradually reduce the length until you achieve your desired style. For detailing and shaping, remove the comb attachment and use the bare blade.
