You groom your beard as well as you can. Use a beard oil, brush occasionally with a special beard brush and clean the beard nicely with beard shampoo. Every now and then you trim the beard to keep it in shape, comb through it and that's it! Yet something is missing. You still don't have that perfectly sleek beard. There are always hairs sticking out or the beard doesn't go in the direction you want it to go. The finishing touch is still missing, and that's where beard scissors come in.
Why scissors for your beard?
A beard trimmer can be very handy for keeping it in shape. But those loose, little hairs are often very annoying and throw your model off balance. You can not only trim your beard with a beard trimmer, but also keep it in shape. So you kill two birds with one stone. With the small scissors you can easily cut off hairs that do not fall to your liking. With a pair of scissors in your grooming assortment, you can keep your beard and/or moustache in great shape.
The benefits of trimming with beard scissors.
There are a lot of advantages to trimming your beard with scissors. The most important is undoubtedly good beard care that ensures a fine looking one. Trimming your mustache also becomes child's play this way. In addition, scissors have the great advantage of maintaining the natural growth cycle by cutting the hairs instead of pulling them. A lot of scissors are also equipped with a handy thumb rest, which gives you excellent grip and allows you to work with even more precision. The scissors are very small, so easy to carry with you everywhere. Quickly removing those excess hairs ensures that your beard stays in shape longer and you don't have to have it trimmed or cut at the barber as often.
This is how to use beard scissors correctly!
To enjoy optimal results, it is very important to use the scissors correctly. It is best to wash your beard before trimming (preferably with a beard shampoo). The hairs will then be a lot smoother and much easier to work with. Next, make sure the beard is thoroughly dry before you get started. Comb the beard neatly. If you comb against the direction of the hair, you can immediately see which hairs stand out and where extra care is needed. Next, cut away the excess hairs and comb through the beard again to make sure everything is to your liking. Finally, you can apply an extra moisturizing beard oil to your beard.
