Frequently asked questions about trimmers
In our guide, we have collected some of the most common questions we receive. If you have more or other questions, please feel free to contact us.
In practice, the difference is very small.
The products under the hair trimmer category are generally designed to be able to cut and trim larger and thicker amounts of hair than a beard trimmer. It simply becomes easier to quickly and smoothly cut and or trim the hair on the head where you can have a larger amount of hair. If you have a larger, thicker beard, a hair trimmer may be slightly easier to use at first.
The products in the beard trimmer category are generally intended to be able to cut and trim shorter and less thick hair, such as beards. Another advantage here is that these are also slightly smaller and easier to handle and control. Something that makes it easier to get nice contours and lines. Of course, this also works to do the same thing on the head. Maybe you want to create nice lines around the ears, in the neck and on the sides. Then a trimmer is a good tool.
What about the shavers?
A shaver is an excellent tool to be able to shave quickly and easily in the morning, but also to make the final fine adjustments to your beard and or hair. Remove feathers on the neck, around the ears and on the sides where even a beard trimmer can have difficulty accessing the most short and awkward hairs.
Of course, everything is up to you and your needs and requirements. What you feel and think you need to get the hair and or beard that you want.
The vast majority of products in the hair trimmer category will be able to do a good job on the face and beard as well. The same applies of course, the other way around. For those who just want to keep their hair and or beard trimmed, one or the other works great.
If you then want to be able to style and shape your hair and or beard in different ways in very specific ways, it may be appropriate to also get a hair or beard trimmer depending on what you have before. Of course, this also applies to shavers.
You are always the one who knows your needs best, but there are a few things that are fundamental for most people.
In a month, your beard grows about nine millimeters, some grow more, others less. In a week, your beard grows a little over two millimeters. Therefore, if you want a beard that looks like it has about a week or a month of beard growth, you should choose a trimmer that has either two millimeters or nine millimeters of distance comb. Keep in mind that these numbers are approximate.
Of course, it also depends on how often you shave your beard with your beard trimmer. For example, if you want to keep a week’s stubble, it may be enough if you shave about three times a month. If you want to keep a month, then you shave about every 5-6 weeks. Of course, you can shave more often as well.
As for the hair on the head, this can grow slightly more and longer. There it grows about three millimetres in a week and ten millimetres in a month. Again, the numbers are approximate. But can still be seen as an approximate line to have with you.
