A BETTER BEARD IN 5 EASY STEPS
Comb your beard in the direction that it grows to help
reveal stray hairs that may be longer than the others.
Cut the outline of your beard. Starting at your chin and working back
toward your jawbone and ears, cut the outer perimeter of your jawbone
underneath. Continue the line all the way up to the ear and hairline.
Accentuate your beard line by using the groomsman trimmer in a downward
motion, with the nameplate side next to the skin. start at the line
you've created and, working from the chin back toward the ears, trim
the area right under your beard line. You should define the upper part
of your beard using the same horizontal technique.
MULTI-POSITION BEARD REGULATOR: Trim and taper the hair ends with the
unique multi-position beard regulator attachment included with your
Groomsman Trimmer.
To use this attachment, simply slide it over the blades
and snap it into position. There are five settings molded into the beard
regulator with the first indent setting (farthest distance away from
blades) leaving your beard length the longest (approximately 5/8"(16
mm)). The other indent trimming lengths are 1/2"(13 mm), 3/8"(10
mm), 1/4"(6 mm), and 1/8"(3 mm).
With the beard regulator attachment set at a fairly long
trimming length, begin trimming your beard. For best results, start
at each sideburn and trim toward your chin in smooth, overlapping strokes,
with the grain of your beard. (If you trim against the grain, the trimmer
will trim hair much shorter.)
You should use progressively closer settings until you
reach the desired length of beard. You may wish to set the beard regulator
attachment to cut closer near the ear and down under the throat, changing
to a longer setting toward the front of the face and point of your chin.
Be sure the beard regulator is snapped solidly into the
desired position before you start to trim.
JAWLINE BLENDER: For a neater finished look, use the jawline blender
which is also included with your trimmer. To use the jawline blender,
simply insert one side of the attach- ment over the front of the blades,
and then push the other side back until both sides are locked into position.
Then using the trimmer in an upward motion, with nameplate
facing away from you, start trimming under the chin with short, outward,
rolling strokes. Continue trimming until entire jawline is blended.
To remove the attachment, pull tab away from one side
to release attachment from trimmer. Use somewhat of a rolling pressure
action, with your thumb on top and index finger underneath.
