Learn how to trim a natural moustache

Before we begin, some basic prep. Make sure your beard is at least 1 cm long so that you have something to work with. For a smoother grooming experience, you’re going to want a dry face and beard, with no shaving cream to obscure what you’re doing (this is how bad moustaches happen!).

It’s also important to know which of the many moustache styles you’re shooting for. When in doubt, the natural moustache compliments most.

1. Shape your moustache

Use a moustache and beard trimmer with a precision attachment to make a gentle curve under your nose. Trim the hair above your upper lip to create a clean line. Then trim the ends of your moustache outwards, from the edge of your lips.

2. Trim your beard to reveal your moustache

If you’ve let your whole beard grow to create your moustache, it’s time to trim it away to make your moustache stand out proud. Use a beard trimmer to remove it. Watch the video above to see how it’s done.

3. Shave closely

Unless you’re going for the ‘stached stubble, give yourself a clean shave with whatever style of electric shaver or razor you prefer. If you have an issue with razor burn, remember: best not to apply too much pressure or go for too close a shave.

4. Maintain your moustache

Use wax to tame your moustache, if required, and trim it regularly to keep it tidy.

Once you know how to grow and trim a natural moustache, remember: your chosen moustache style speaks volumes. If you’re not happy with what yours is saying, try out something else – like a handlebar moustache.
