A short boxed beard is similar to a full beard, but has thin, neatly trimmed sides. With the All Purpose Gillette STYLER, you can achieve this look.
The Short Boxed Beard Look
There are countless facial hair styles, but this doesn’t mean that trimming a beard will be complicated. Here’s a simple set of steps to get you on your way to the popular short boxed beard style:
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.
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.
Step 3
Define Your Beard Shape.
Remove your trimmer’s comb attachment and trim your beard to define the Short Boxed Beard shape. For the best style results, keep the hair shorter on your neck and cheeks.
Step 4
Check for Symmetry as You Go.
But be careful not to trim too much off in an effort to look even.
Step 5
Prep Your Face.
Rinse your face with warm water to help hydrate your hair in preparation for shaving. Then, lather up with shave gel on the parts of your face that you want to shave completely bare, including your neck and cheeks. Using a shave gel can help prevent nicks, cuts, and irritation.
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.
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.
Step 8
Edge with the Precision Trimmer.
On the back of all Fusion5 razors is a precision blade; use this to help define the short boxed shape and achieve clean edges.
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.
