You can always trim more if needed but fixing an overly short beard can be challenging, especially if you are unsure about the desired length. Trim your beard in the direction of the hair growth (with the grain) to prevent irritation and ingrown hairs. Move from one side of your face to the other. Keep using a comb as it helps to lift the beard hair and make it easier to cut.
Step #5 Define Your Neckline
Define your neckline by trimming below your jawline and around your neck. Put a finger horizontally just above your Adam’s Apple and trim a vertical strip below this line. It is almost always the precise point where your neckline should be defined to create a clean and polished look.

Step #5 Choose Your Cheekline
You can leave the natural beard cheekline as it is, however, for a crispier look, go for a straight or slightly rounded line from the edge of the mouth to the sideburn. Lowering the cheekline will also give length to your face. Always use smaller attachments for precise trimming edges.
Step #5 Shape Your Moustache
For a moustache, it depends on how you decide to trim it. Whether you are interested in a different style or want your mustache to be in sync with your beard, some of the general styles you can experiment with are either growing the moustache longer than the beard's length or keeping the length the same as your beard. make a gentle curve under your nose. Trim the hair above your upper lip to create a clean line using smaller trimmer attachments. Then, trim the ends of your moustache outwards, from the edge of your lips.
Step #6 Complete the Trim with a Clean Edge
Take off the guard from the trimmer and trim along the neckline to remove the remaining hair on your neck. It is important to be careful and not shave too much on the neckline.
Step #7 Finish it With Oil
Your beard requires moisture to stay healthy. You can complete the entire trimming process with a good quality beard oil that will moisturize and keep your facial hair in a good state. After applying the oil, using the beard comb, run it through your beard to distribute the oil evenly, and it will also help in styling your beard post-trim.
