The BEST Way To Trim Your Short Beard At Home (7-Step Tutorial)
About this video
Centeno provides a comprehensive guide to trimming facial hair for the first time, covering the essential tools needed and walking through seven detailed steps from determining beard length to applying beard oil. He emphasizes planning your approach, using proper technique with clippers and trimmers, and finishing with a clean shave for defined lines.
Key takeaways
- Centeno recommends starting with a longer clipper guard if you’re unsure of your desired length, since hair can always be trimmed shorter but cannot be grown back immediately
- Centeno suggests using an L-shape hand guide or the Adam’s apple as reference points to avoid cutting the jawline too high, which can make the beard appear less full
- Centeno advises using a clear shave gel rather than opaque shaving cream when defining cheek and neck lines, as it allows you to see exactly what you’re shaving
- Centeno recommends finishing with beard oil to hydrate the skin and soften beard hairs after trimming
