Where to Trim Your Beard Neckline

  • Envision a curved line between both ears (points A and B), connected by another point (C) above the Adam’s apple.
  • To locate the proper midpoint (C), place two fingers above your Adam’s apple (roughly 1.5 inches).
  • Go one or two settings shorter on the clippers.

What is a good beard line?

A good basic plan is to trim a smooth line that passes right about your Adam’s apple, following the crease and contour of your neck.

How do I reduce my beard line?

Neat. Tidy. Tilt your head back a bit and place one finger of your other hand just at the top of your Adam’s apple. This spot marks a natural dividing line between your beard and your neck. Place your trimmer at this spot and trim down.

Should your beard follow your jawline?

“Follow the line around without rounding too much,” says Candia. “It shouldn’t be a V—there should definitely be hair under both sides of the jaw.” Use either your normal razor or a small trimmer—the neckline requires neat work.

Should I trim my beard while growing it?

DO NOT trim/shape your beard prior to the three-week mark. I recommend waiting at least four weeks before shaping. If you trim too soon, your beard could become lopsided. There is one caveat: Your beard should never connect with your chest hair.

What is French beard?

A French Beard, (also known as a French cut beard or a goatee) normally extends to the apex of the chin. Although there can be a little bit of facial hair in the other areas of the face, the French cut area should be the most prominent zone. Guys look really cool with this style of beard.

Should I wash my beard before trimming?

Step 1: Keep It Clean and Soft A dry, dirty beard isn’t ideal for obvious reasons. But it’s especially bad when it comes time for a trim. So keep it clean. First, wash with a beard shampoo, because your face skin is different from your scalp, and it’s best to have something purpose-built for the occasion.

At what age does beard grow fully?

Typically, full beard growth is possible starting at around age 18, but for many men, that time may not arrive until they’re 30. So, if you’re not getting the beard growth you want, it may be because it’s not your time.
