Grow your beard for 4 to 6 weeks, or until you have a good amount of hair growth.

After the hair above your lip is trimmed, you want to shave it clean using a Wahl shaver, leaving hair that connects the chin with the sides of the mouth.

Make sure to create defined lines at the neck by shaving this area clean as well.
