If you want to do something right, oftentimes you have to do it yourself. Even-though this theory mainly links serious life matters and decisions, it can also be useful if you want to create a perfect beard as well.
Of course, it’s easy to visit the barbershop and leave your beard to the professionals, but they are not always able to create you a perfect look.
Therefore, you should sometimes take matters into your own hands.
When you’re left with scissors and a trimmer in your hands, in front of your mirror, it’s important to know where to start, and then how to go, step by step.
Read the following useful tips and you will not have any problems in creating a perfect beard.
1. Assess the type of your beard hair
First and foremost, before you begin to trim your beard, you must know what type of beard you have.
Look closely if your beard is dense, sharp or curly? Or is it thin, short and straight?
Let your beard grow before cutting it so that you do not cut the short, non-rooted hair.
Once you find out what type of beard you have, then it means that you are on the right track. This will help you select the products you need to use.
2. Choose tools
After you have a good look at your beard, you must carefully select the right razor. Different shavers are used for different purposes.
Experiment, consult experts and choose the one that suits you most. It is also very important to clean the shaver after each use.
3. Select a style
When you confirm the type of beard, as well as a shaver or a trimmer that suits you, then you can freely choose a style that suits you best.

4. Start slashing
Now comes the most important step. You need to remember: whatever you do, it will grow again.
Select the length at which you want to shorten your beard and start shaving slowly.
You can also use a short fast shaving, but you should remember that this is harmful and often creates irritation to the skin.
5. Do not forget the mustache
Now comes the mustache. The length and style depend on you, but make sure they do not obstruct your mouth.
Relax and slick the hair down. We advise you to cut them with scissors or carefully trim them with a trimmer.
6. Reduce irritation
Your skin may seem a little swollen and red. However, you can easily solve this.
Maintain the skin on your face in order to avoid irritation, and after shaving it is very important to moisten it with hydrating creams of Aloe Vera to calm it.
7. Maintain your perfect beard with cream
To keep your beard in good shape, you need to treat it with more attention. First, wash with soap, and then apply cream to maintain it.
