How to Get a 3-Day Stubble Beard in 5 Steps
A beard like this can also help hide flaws, highlight your jawline and give sensitive skin a break. With a few good tools and a stubble trimmer, like the All Purpose Gillette STYLER and Beard Trimmer, you can get a great-looking stubble beard without much effort.
Growing and Shaving Your 3-Day Stubble
Clean Shave
The great thing about a stubble beard is it only takes a weekend to grow. But to get even hair across your face, it’s best to start with a clean shave. Use a good, clean blade like Gillette’s Fusion razor blades to wet shave across your face. Lather up with shaving cream or gel and use gentle strokes to shave the skin.
Grow Your Facial Hair
As you let your hair grow evenly across your face, start thinking about shaving with the beard length you want in mind. If you want a neater look, go a little shorter. Find out more about how to grow a beard.
How to Shave Stubble
Take your trimmer (go for the Gillette All Purpose Styler) and choose a 2mm or 3mm comb. Start taking the hair down across your face and neck. Make sure that you keep the hair removal consistent across the whole area as you go along.
Trim the Edges
With your precision trimmer, edge around your neckline, starting outwards and working in. How far you take it in depends on you and your hair growth, but neater edges with a more natural shape work best. Work up to just above your Adam’s apple. Then, clean up the hair along your cheekbones and around your mouth.
Clean Shave Around Your Beard
The 3-Day Stubble Beard is more of a natural look, but if you want to add extra definition and cleaner lines, shave the areas outside your beard shape. Use a good shaving gel, and a clean, sharp razor to edge along the lines you’ve already made. Pat your face dry and apply some moisturizer or aftershave.
Those are our 5 easy steps to creating the 3-day stubble beard. To keep it in shape, trim it every few days, and make sure the hair stays clean and moisturized.
