A beard is a part of your identity that defines your personality. But keeping your beard in top shape requires more than just an occasional snip at home. It’s all about professional precision and care.

That’s where you need the expertise of an authentic salon like Struggle and Style. Check out what makes our beard trim above the rest.

Steps of Beard Trimming: How We Do It

At Struggle and Style, we firmly believe that everyone requires a tailored experience. Have a look at how we make it happen:

1. One-on-one Consultation

First of all, we offer a dedicated consultation to understand your priorities and personality. Then, our expert stylists examine your face shape and beard density in detail to recommend the right style for you. So we will be on the same page right from the beginning.

2. Preparing Your Beard

We always start with a relaxing cleanse using a premium beard shampoo. It removes the dirt and even softens the hair for easier shaping. Similarly, we also apply a hydrating pre-trim oil to reduce irritation during the trimming.

3. Precision Trimming

Our expert stylists use advanced clippers with adjustable guards to achieve your desired hair length. Every stroke of the clipper is deliberate to make sure that no stray hair is left behind. For those with longer or more intricate beards, scissors are used to ensure better precision. Yet, the goal remains the same in both cases: create a polished look without disrupting the beard’s natural look. 

4. Sculpting The Neckline

Remember, the neckline is the foundation of your beard. That’s why we shape it carefully. Our experts carefully define a natural curve just above Adam’s apple so as to blend it smoothly with the jawline. A razor will be used to create sharp and clean lines. 

5. Defining the Cheek Line

Similarly, your cheekline will also be shaped subtly, following the natural growth pattern. At this stage, maintaining symmetry will be our top priority. If you prefer a more defined line, we can discuss it and adjust it accordingly to fit your style.

6. Detailed Mustache Trimming

No beard trim is complete without addressing the mustache. Precision scissors will be used to carefully trim away the extra hair along the lip line. Soon, your mustache style will align with the beard for a cohesive look.

7. Final Touches

After completing the major trimming, we use handheld mirrors to check for the symmetry. All the fine-tune details of the beard style will be verified. Stray hairs (if any) are also removed. 

Lastly, we apply premium beard oil to moisturize your beard. It gives a polished look to your beard style.
