Mustache Maintenance Basics.
- Before you trim your mustache, first comb it straight down using a narrow toothed comb.
- Be sure to use a precision ground trimmer to shape your mustache like WAHL's Mustache Trimmer that offers a compact size and great line of sight to help get under the nose.
- Try experimenting with different styles to see which shape best suits your personality, the shape of your face and the fullness of your growth.
- Some styles do not require trimming the top of the mustache. In this case, only trim the bottom above the top lip.
- When trimming with a snap-on length guide comb, work from the inside out in a downward motion.
- To trim the length freehand, trim hairs using an upward motion applying slow and light pressure.
- Too much pressure may trim off more hair than desired.
- After achieving desired length, use either the taper guide comb or freehand in an upward motion from the lip out to taper the mustache.
- The style you choose dictates the desired length of time between trims.
