facial hair grows. The faster you can grow a beard, the quicker
you’ll need to keep up with your stubble to ensure it stays shaped
– designer stubble is an ongoing process of upkeep, so you can’t
just shape it and leave it.
NB - Use on clean, dry hair. If possible, when using for the first time,
try and grow your facial hair for at least 4 days before cutting. This
will give you a better result, as your facial hair will feel thicker.
To create a short, shadow stubble look:
1. If your hair is already quite short, set the motorised comb guide
to 0.4mm trimming length. If your hair is quite long, thick and
coarse, pre-trim the hair using a longer length setting, such
as 8mm, then once all of the hair has been trimmed, set the
motorised comb guide to 0.4mm length.
2. For a close finish around the sideburns and cheeks, remove
the comb guide (refer to ‘Using the Comb Guide’ for further
information) and turn the
i-trim stubble
+ over, so that the blades
are closest to the face. Trim around the sideburns and cheeks,
taking care around the sideburns so that you do not trim the hair
too short.
3. For an even closer finish, attach the foil shaver attachment (refer
to ‘Using the Foil Shaver Attachment’ for further information)
and shave around the neck area, with the direction of the hair
growth.
To create a longer designer stubble look (mid-length stubble):
1. If your hair is already quite short, set the motorised comb guide to
2mm trimming length. If your hair is quite long, thick and coarse,
pre-trim the hair using a longer length setting, such as 8mm, then
once all of the hair has been trimmed, set the motorised comb
guide to 2mm length.
2. Move the trimmer upwards through the hair, a little at a time,
with and against the direction of hair growth, whichever is
most comfortable, as most men have hair growing in various
directions.
