Growing a beard is pretty easy because all you have to do is stop shaving. Where your face fur begins or ends is no one's concern apart from yours. While that beard might make you look manly but an unkempt beard can cause problems. These will arise mainly when you are looking for employment or going into dating. But it also affects if you are looking to become more approachable. These external problems will only escalate if you aren't able to maintain the beard. So to reduce all these issues here's the best way to trim beard:

The basic way says that you should wash your beard with the best beard shampoo first and then condition it. This conditioner will help you in softening the beard. Get a conditioner or shampoo from a reputable company like Muuchstaac or something similar. Now follow the steps:

    • After it dries, use a brush and then run it against the grain of your beard. This will make the hairs stand up and out. It will help highlight any inconsistencies in length.
      • Now use your clippers to trim it to your desired length. If you are looking for something simple, then go for an all around even cut. But if you want something which has more shape, then go for a longer guard around your chin areas. Along with this aim for a shorter one on your temples and cheeks.
        • Now it's time to trim your neck beard very safely. The safest way is to trim just above your Adam's apple. This way you can have both a legitimate beard as well as a neck. First, use two fingers and put them above your Adam's apple. Now you have to imagine a line that runs on top of the two fingers. Draw this imaginary line from behind each of the ears. This line will curve down all the way to that point and make a U-shape. You just have to shave everything which goes below this spot.
          • If you are aiming for a fade then you just need to set your clippers at half the length of your usual clipper setting. This shorter guard will help you trim up from your neckline. This length should be about one inch around the full base of the beard. You can even fade it more closely. Just halve it again to fade around another half inch from the bare skin at this point.
            • Next step involves trimming your mustache properly. For this, first, comb all the hair down to the sides first and then clip on the desired setting. Now it's time to comb all way down over your lip and then remove the guard. You have to trim anything which falls over onto the lip.
              • Now finish the trimming job off with washing your face and then applying moisturizer on it.
              • These steps will help you achieve a look which you like. Along with this, you will be able to maintain your beard and be more socially acceptable.
