Note: The below instructions are recommended for those with or wanting to trim beard
hair between 1.5 to 18mm in length.
TO THIN AND TAPER THE BEARD/MOUSTACHE
•
Turn the unit on.
•
Place the flat top of the trimmer comb against the skin.
•
Slowly slide the trimmer through the hair. Repeat from different directions as necessary.
•
If hair builds up in the trimmer comb during the trimming process, switch the unit off,
pull off the comb and brush off.
DETAILING
•
To create sharp lines around your beard, press the pop-up trimmer release button.
•
Start with the edge of the beard/moustache line and gently lower the trimmer blade
onto your skin. Use motions towards the edge of the beard/moustache line to trim to
the desired locations in the facial area and away from beard in neck area.
TRIMMING AND STYLING LONGER BEARDS
•
To take out volume from your beard or if you want to take down the length significantly,
select your desired length setting on the XL comb (please see the table for trimming
length settings). Place the flat top of the trimmer comb against the skin. Slowly slide
through the hair. Repeat from different directions as necessary.
•
If hair builds up in the trimmer comb during the trimming process, switch the unit off,
pull off the comb and brush the hair off.
HOW TO BLEND/TAPER YOUR BEARD
•
Tapering is when you fade the length of your beard from shorter sideburns to a longer
beard. This is how you can truly stlye your beard based on different lengths and shapes.
1. Adjust the comb to your selected grade.
2. Grade settings and the respective trimming lengths the beard kit offers can be seen in
the table. You will either need to use the short length adjustable comb or the XL
adjustable comb depending on the grade you require. If you don't know, you can start
at a longer trimming setting and work up towards your hairline, lowering the grade
number as you go.
3. Beard hairs sit on your face much lower than at the root compared to stubble. Therefore,
use a comb to lift up the hair you want to remove and identify where the root is. This
section of hair should be located at the middle of your ear (see fig. 1).
•
Start grading your beard here, upwards. Don't start clipping too low or you are going to
be taking away supporting hairs lower down.
CLIPPING
1. Lift this section of hair, guide into the adjustable comb and run the clipper through. Go
over a couple of times.
