We can't forget about those hair trimmers. Here's the lowdown:

  1. Guard Up: Choose the guard that matches the length you're aiming for. Start longer for a gentle trim.
  2. Trim Time: Get to work, starting at the back and working your way forward. Short strokes will keep things neat.
  3. Clean Edges: Tidy up those edges and hairlines for a polished finish.
  4. Detailing: Don't forget the finer details. Clean up any stray hairs you may need scissors for this.
  5. Finishing Touch: A little hair product like putte can go a long way in keeping that style locked in.

Now, let's talk about keeping those trimmers spick and span:

  1. Shake it Off: Give it a good shake to get rid of any loose hairs and debris.
  2. Brush off loose hairs: Grab a brush and scrub away any stubborn bits of hair stuck in the blades or guards.
  3. Rinse and Repeat: If your trimmer can handle it, give the blades a rinse under running water. Just make sure it's dry before you plug it back in.
  4. Sanitize: Spray those blades with some disinfectant to keep things hygienic.

How to use a WAHL Beard Trimmer:

Beard trimming is an art form. Here's your step-by-step guide:

  1. Choose Your Guard Wisely: Pick the guard length that matches the beard vibe you're client is going for. Start long and work your way down for precision.
  2. Trim Away: Get down to business, starting with the sides and working towards the chin. Short, sweet strokes will keep things even.
  3. Define Those Lines: Use the trimmer without a guard to clean up the neckline and cheekline, keeping things symmetrical.
  4. Details: Tackle those stray hairs and shape the beard to perfection. Scissors might be needed for that extra finesse.
  5. Wrap it Up: Finish off with a little beard oil or moisturizer to keep things feeling fresh and looking sharp.

How to clean a WAHL beard trimmer:

  1. Remove any detachable parts.
  2. Brush off loose hair - Use a small cleaning brush to gently brush off any loose hairs from the blade and trimmer body.
  3. Rinse and clean the blade with mild soap - rinse it under running water to remove any hair and debris. Use a mild soap or blade cleaning solution to clean the blade thoroughly. Avoid immersing the trimmer body in water, as it may damage the motor.
  4. Dry the blade thoroughly - pat the blade dry with a clean cloth or allow it to air dry completely before reattaching it to the trimmer body.
  5. Wipe down the trimmer's body with a damp cloth.
  6. Oil the blade lightly - Once the blade is clean and dry, apply a few drops of clipper oil or blade oil to the cutting surfaces and moving parts of the blade. This helps lubricate the blade for smooth operation and prevents rusting.
  7. Reassemble the trimmer.
  8. Store it in a dry place.

Regular cleaning keeps your Wahl trimmer working smoothly and hygienically.
