Beard Trimmer Reviews -
Keep that Goatee Looking Sharp!

Last week I decided to grow a bit of a beard.

I guess you sort of need one in order to create beard trimmer reviews.

Well it had been years since I sported a goatee.

I used to have one all the time until I had to be clean-shaven for a job. Then once I found electric shavers I never really went back.

But after using these trimmers and creating various beard styles I'm considering keeping a goatee every once and a while.

While testing out these products I discovered that they need to be powerful enough to completely remove a beard, and include adjustable trimming settings that meet different people's needs.

These days there are many types of beards and the products need to adapt.

You might want to maintain a full beard, style a goatee, or keep a slick mustache.

These reviews should help you identify the model that's right for you.

Best Beard Trimmer Comparison Review

Here I've compared 4 of the best selling models side by side.

There are obviously more models available than just these 4, however these all offer something a bit different. Most people should be happy with one of them.

The review helps you choose a product based on your trimming goals. It outlines which models perform the best for certain tasks.

For Basic Trimming

Remington MB - 200

This is one of the most popular options.

Because it's so affordable, it's worth having around just in case you let your beard grow out too much.

I find I use it a lot after long weekends or holidays where I've let my facial hair grow out quite a bit.

Electric shavers have a tough time with long thick facial hair, so using this first is a great combination.

Even if you maintain a full beard, this model has 9 length settings which should be more than enough to maintain the look you want.

As a budget unit, I highly recommend it.

For Styling Facial Hair

Braun Cruzer 6 Face

Overall I enjoyed using this combination trimmer quite a bit.

If you're wondering about the model numbers here, the 6 is basically the same as the Cruzer 5, except it comes with a charging stand and can be used wet.

I recommend this to annyone who's interested in styling a goatee. It has some features that you won't find on any other products, and which turn out to be really effective.

If you just want to remove facial hair to get a nice smooth shave then consider your other options, but if you're going to use it for stying, it's extremely useful.

For Reducing a Mess

Philips Norelco QT4050 Vacuum Trimmer

If you want to reduce the stubble over your sink, you'll appreciate this model.

The vacuum feature will not collect every single clipping, but it does work pretty well.

In terms of trimming performance, the QT4050 does a pretty good job as well. For maintaining a certain length it works well, but one area where it doesn't shine is in the styling department.

If you need to make very precise trims and outlines, you might not like this one.

But if you're just after basic functions along with the bonus clean up feature, it's worth it.
