Beard Grooming 101 – The Scissor Trim

Coach Adam — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 22:10:26 +0000

This installment of my “how-to” video series addresses the issue of trimming your beard after it has gotten too long for the electric clippers. Free-hand scissor trimming is a scary thing if you have never tried it before, and I hope this video will instill confidence and provide a couple tips based on how I trim my beard.

When you watch the video, you will notice that it looks as though I am not even cutting the hair. This drives home the point I make about not taking too much off at once. Just set aside a chunk of time and take it slowly.

Lastly, I apologize for the two-part video. My memory card hit capacity before I was finished trimming, and a beard trimming video is definitely a one-take shoot. Thanks for taking the time to watch both parts of the video to get the maximum benefit.

Okay, let’s get trimming!

Dang, guys, I seem to be having a bit of trouble getting some new beard advice posted these days. I’ve also been rather distracted with a new project I’m starting up, as well as working on a couple new t-shirt designs.

Soon, my friends, I will produce more of the beard-related goodness you’ve become accustomed to. I sincerely apologize and offer the following entertaining YouTube find in place of a bouquet of flowers as a token of my gratitude for your unending patience and your undying loyalty.

One of the toughest things to figure out about your new beard is where the borders should lie on your face. If you set your neck line too high or your cheek line too low, you run the risk of turning your new look as a ruggedly handsome rennaissance man into that of someone who has no idea how a beard is shaped. Don’t look like an oaf. Follow my guidelines to get your beard in the ideal shape!
