How to Trim a Mustache

There are many ways to groom a mustache. Decide how you want yours to look before
following these instructions.

Instructions

• STEP 1: Wet your mustache slightly.
• STEP 2: Use a fine-tooth mustache comb to brush the hair down.
• STEP 3: Clip the hair on your mustache's outer edges with a pair of thin scissors.
Remember to clip conservatively.
• STEP 4: Snip across the bottom of the mustache.
• STEP 5: Trim the body of the mustache to achieve the desired evenness and
bushiness, and to clip errant hairs.
• STEP 6: Touch up the top of the mustache with a razor until you have the desired
line. If you have an unusual mustache, such as a pencil-thin or handle-bar
mustache, use more or less use of the razor as appropriate. Take care not to shave
off the top of the mustache accidentally.
• STEP 7: Comb again with the mustache comb.
