A beard trimmer is designed to cut (or trim) shorter or finer hairs, like facial

and body hair, because of the blade and tooth size. Trimmers cut closer to

the skin and are made to work on the finer details of the beard, face and body.

If there’s one fact of life, it’s that hair keeps on growing, and you’ll need a beard trimmers to keep facial hair in check, no matter the length or style.

(An electric razor is the better option if you want to go clean-shaven, and we’ve got picks for those, too.)

A shaver uses a foil system that pushes up against the skin, supporting the hairs and slices them like a pair of scissors. A very skin-close finish is the end product.

On the other hand, a beard trimmer has an oscillating head that cuts the hairs as it comes into contact with them.

In the end, it really comes down to personal preference. Trimming is probably the best option if you prefer a more natural look.

On the other hand, if you want a clean, polished look, then shaving is the way to go. Either way, it’s important to invest in the right tools and products to ensure your beard looks its best.

You should also consider a trimmer that has a good grip to avoid any accidental slips. Whether the trimmer is cord or cordless is down to preference, and whether you have a power socket in your bathroom or not.

If you’re always on the move or travel often, then a cordless option might be better suited.
