BEARD GROOMING – THE CIRCLE BEARD GOATEE

HOW TO TRIM A GOATEE: THE CIRCLE BEARD

In its simplest terms, the circle beard, also known as a goatee, is a chin strap and a mustache that meet to form a circle. Pretty easy, right? With the All Purpose Gillette STYLER, you can achieve this look.

The Goatee Look

Learning how to shave a circle beard might seem a bit difficult. But it doesn’t have to be when you’re armed with the right tools. Here’s a simple set of steps to get you on your way to the popular circle beard goatee style:

  1. Step 1
    Select a Fixed-Length Comb for Trimming

    Step 1: Select a Fixed-Length Comb for Trimming

    The right comb length on your trimmer can help you style your look. The All Purpose Gillette STYLER comes with three comb attachments (2 mm, 4 mm, 6 mm) for you to choose from.
  2. Step 2
    Trim Your Facial Hair

    Step 2: Trim Your Facial Hair

    Even out your beard hair length with the trimmer. Trimming hairs before shaving can help reduce tug and pull while shaving, and it can help prevent clogged blades.
  3. Step 3
    Define Your Goatee Shape

    Step 3: Define Your Goatee Shape

    Remove your trimmer’s comb attachment and trim your beard to define the Goatee shape. For the best style results, keep the hair shorter on your neck and cheeks.
  4. Step 4

    Step 4: Check for symmetry as you go

    But be careful not to trim too much off in an effort to look even.
  5. Step 5

    Step 5: Prep Your Face

    Rinse your face with warm water to help hydrate your hair in preparation for shaving. Then, lather up the parts of your face that you want to shave completely bare—the non-goatee parts—with a shave gel. Using a shave gel can help prevent nicks, cuts, and irritation.
  6. Step 6

    Step 6: Shave with Light, Gentle Strokes

    Attach the razor blade onto your Gillette STYLER handle and shave with light, gentle strokes to give yourself a close shave. Any Fusion5 blade refill fits the STYLER.
  7. Step 7

    Step 7: Rinse Your Blades Often

    Rinsing the blades often throughout your shave helps to prevent buildup of hairs and shaving cream on the blade edges and cartridge; this helps keep your razor performing at its best.
  8. Step 8

    Step 8: Edge with the Precision Trimmer

    On the back of all Fusion5 razors is a precision blade; use this to help define the goatee shape and achieve clean edges.
  9. Step 9

    Step 9: Rinse, Towel, and Moisturize

    Rinse off your face with cool water. Towel off, and then apply a hydrating aftershave lotion to help your skin feel soft and comfortable.
