If you just hopped out of the shower, wait until your beard is completely dry before trimming. When the beard is dry, you will be able to see how you want to style it more easily than if it were wet.

What To Do

To prevent your hair from getting everywhere, tie a towel around your neck and drape the bottom of it into the sink. This way, the towel will catch everything instead of falling into the sink.

Take a brush and brush out your beard. If you have a longer beard, a good way to start the process is to brush against the length of your beard. This will help any stray hairs stick out.

If you prefer scissors to trim, take a comb and brush your beard downwards. Use your scissors as a guide and cut along the opposite end of them as you go. Try these scissors, which are stainless steel and the perfect size for trimming.

Finally, to clean things up, trim up your neckline. The easiest way to do this is to go in with a razor. A good rule of thumb is to shave up to about your Adam’s apple, since you don’t want your beard to be too close to your jawline or too far down your neck.
