Beard trimming at the G-cutz barber shop
The beard is undoubtedly one of the most powerful symbols of masculinity since ancient times. It requires care and attention if you want a well-groomed look. The style, the shape, the length and of course the proper hydration are important. Some people swear by home beard trimming, saying that a beard trimmer is enough, but is it really enough? What about the edges and the small parts? It’s always worth hiring a professional barber, because we can perfectly shape parts of your beard that you can’t comfortably access. There are many times when it is also worth adding a transition to the beard, which is especially not something you should experiment with at home. You can come in just for a beard trim, no need to mess with your hair. In just half an hour, we’ll perfect your face hair with the perfect beard style!
Beard trim
The appearance of a beard is striking at first glance, as it is positioned in the central part of the face, and admittedly it is hard not to notice, no matter how long it is.
Length and shape
You have a winning case if the length and shape of your beard matches your style and face shape, and of course your hairstyle. So it’s quite a complex thing, it’s not enough to grow it and leave it to be. If you’re not sure which direction to take, we at G-cutz can help you find the style that suits you best.
Care and hydration
No matter how good you cut your beard, you can’t forget to groom it regularly. This is the key to enjoying a healthy and well-groomed beard for a long time. It’s not just about washing, moisturising and oiling, but also about regular visits to the barber.
How often should you visit a barber?
The perfect interval is hard to judge, as every man has a different rate of hair growth, as well as different lengths and styles. While a shorter beard needs updating every 3-4 days, a longer beard can be left longer. In general, the shorter your beard, the more often you should visit your barber.
Beard trimming at home
We know that someone with a stubble is not going to go for a beard trim every 3 days, they likely will trim it at home with a beard trimmer. However, we highly recommend that even if you trim your beard at home, it’s still worth a visit to the barber once a month to get it realigned and properly maintained. It gives much more detail and precision to the edges and the beard line. It also cuts the long line perfectly, making aftercare at home much easier for you. No matter how skilled you are, a professional barber will produce a very different result!
Beard trimming at G-cutz barber shop
Besides haircuts, beard trimming is one of our most popular services. It’s not a surprise, as it’s an essential service provided by all barber shops. Some people come to us just to get the length adjusted and the edges shaped, but there are also those who want a whole new style cut. Of course, both are possible.
Style advice
The first step everyone can take is a personal style consultation. As barbers, we have a much better idea of what shape and length suits your face shape and what can be maximised from your beard structure. We can help you find the styles that suit you best. Making sure we get the best results for you!
Beard trim
Once we’ve nailed down which beard style we create for you, it’s time to get to work. First, we cut the parts that require a clipper, and we work the areas that need a razor. We then apply a shaving cream or gel. Followed by adjusting the edges, shape the form and go into the smallest details. We create the beard line and the neckline. Once we’ve done all this, we’ll wash the gel or cream off your face, wipe it off and moisturise. Lastly, we apply a soothing aftershave to calm the skin after shaving. A finishing touch is the beard oil to your beard to nourish and moisturise the facial hair.
How to care for your beard at home
If you want to keep your beard nice and trimmed until your next visit to the barber, it’s important to look after it properly. Every man has a different daily routine for his beard, depending on the style and length you’re talking about, but there are a few basic steps that apply to everyone.
- Get yourself a beard brush made from 100% boar bristle and gently massage your beard 3 times a week, making sure it touches the skin on your face. It helps to combat ingrown hairs and effectively prevents dandruff. It is beneficial for blood circulation, so it also helps with beard growth.
- Wash your beard 3 times a week with a shampoo specifically designed for beard cleansing. Forget regular shampoo and soap, be professional! However, you should not use beard shampoo more than 3 times because it will only dry out the skin. The other days, simply rinse your beard with water to wash away the dirt and daily dust.
- Don’t use a hairdryer too close when drying your beard after washing. You can easily burn and damage your beard by hot air, so keep it away from your facial hair.
Don’t forget the importance of beard oil! Apply a little oil to your beard daily and rub it in. Feel free to go deeper, all the way down to your skin!
