Can this razor be used to trim a beard? Anyone know if this will work?

It has a moustache trimming tool which pops out. (Think EDGE trimmer.) However, I do not see how it could be used with a spacer to trim beard hairs themselves to a certain length. I already have a beard trimmer, though so it's not an issue for me.

It will work for any kind of Hair! I use my to cut my stubble before shaving? I used it to trim my eyebrows and around my ear. Also cutting the unwanted hair on my back. We use it to trim our dogs noses. It has combs to shorten your chest hair to any length. This is a great set of trimmers and was the best investment my Father and I made. Now if you wanted to have no hair on your chest then you would use this to shorten hair and then shave with a razor. Hope this help?

I'd like to respond with authority but I have no basis to determine its effectiveness. I have an average beard an need a shave at least once a day. The Braun didn't work well for me and I would not recommend it for anyone. My old remington works the best...even better than the new Remington. So much for the newer the better.

Don't know anything about cutting beards --- we use ours for dog grooming!Don't see why it would not work ---- with a proper blade tho ! Might also want to use a guard to keep it uniform.

It does a spectacular job of trimming beards to any desired length IF you apply the flat side towards your skin. I've not tried it for cutting or trimming head hair.

I'm also African-American and can not use razors also. I have used this to (shave/trim) my full beard for 2 years with no problems. I even got ride of razor bulbs using Organic Root Stimulator (ORS). This will be a great choice for you. It provides a smooth, close (dry)shave.

It shaves very close, but it's meant for facial hair. Don't expect a clean shave like with a razor. That said it DOES shave very close. If I normally trim my beard on #2 with most shavers, I have to use setting #4. So on #1 it'll leave the finest stubble you can imagine. Maybe that's what you are looking for?

It's not a shaver, although there is a pop up mustache trimmer that does a good job. It could be used to trim the beard by the neck. In my case, my beard gets trimmed when I get a haircut. I hope this is useful.

Remembering that this is a travel shaver or for a quick shave on the go, I think the Braun is terrific for mustache, beard and sideburn trims. I use a razor to supplement when I want a real close shave. I have purchased three of these Brauns already, one as a gift and one as a backup...but still getting good use from the original after two years of frequent usage.

Depending on the length of your beard.. I would STRONGLY advise against this trimmer.. Trims beard uneven... Don't buy.

It might be too big for beard trimming, a smaller trimmer might be better. That said, it probably would work, but may not be the best choice for just beard trimming.

Well, it comes with a trimmer which pops out from the body of the shaver, but I would not call it a beard trimming feature. More like a feature to straighten the edges of a moustache, goatee, and Vandyke. If you need a real trimmer to shorten the length or keep the length of your beard, I would buy one for that purpose. I use my Norelco trimming kit for my goatee and my Braun for shaving. Combination of the two works excellent.

I don't know...maybe. I also have the Wahl Chrome Pro 24 Piece perp Haircutting Kit, which I use on my head. I just found that it was too big to use on the beard, especially the mustache area. That's why I got this beard trimmer. I suppose it could work, but if you're wanting it for the sole purpose of cutting your hair, I'd go with the above mentioned clippers. Hope this helps.

I wouldn't know I just use it for trimming. I'm sure it would get really close but I know that you would have to shave your head after with a razor.

This is respond from my husband: " This trimmer works great for trimming beards to 3/64ths inch to inches long. It does not come with a comb that would go up to 1 inches. For a longer goatee, I would detach the comb and use it freehand." hope that helps.

This razor is not equipped with a trimmer. I almost never used the trimmer on my previous razors, so I was unwilling t spend another $20 for the model that is equipped with a trimmer. RLK
