TYPES OF BEARDS/
MUSTACHES
GETTING STARTED
OUTLINING YOUR BEARD
1. It is always best to begin with a clean,
slightly damp beard.
2. After you have combed through your
beard in the direction it grows natu-
rally, you will want to outline the
desired shape, beginning under your
jawline.
3. Begin defining your beard's shape
under your chin and work upward on
each side of your
face toward your
ears. Then define the
upper outline of your
beard across your cheeks, past your
sideburns, and toward your hairline.
NOW YOU'RE READY TO TRIM
YOUR BEARD
1. Your trimmer adjusts to five positions
so you can have a beard length from
3/32" (shortest) to 3/8" (longest).
2. To use the taper control, push upward
for shorter cuts and downward for
longer cuts. At first, until you become
familiar with the adjustments, use
the longest trim setting (3/8"). (You
can always go back and make your
beard a little shorter.)
3. Begin trimming your beard using
smooth, even strokes. Start with your
sideburns and work downward toward
your chin. (Never attempt to trim
against the natural growth of your
beard because the hair will be cut too
short.)
4. If you decide you want a closer trim,
you can now adjust the 5-position
taper control
(such as 3/32" or 5/32") and go over
your beard again until you achieve the
desired length.
