The best beard trimmers to groom in comfort and style, tested

Composite image of eight beard trimmers against a white background with a yellow border.

Shaving is costly and uncomfortable, and almost everyone who can grow a beard looks better with one. This was my (admittedly rather one-sided) view when I ditched the clean-shaven look 20 years ago, but perhaps I was on to something (with the first two points anyway): I still reach for a beard trimmer rather than a razor today.

If you’re the type of person who’s always clean shaven or visits the barber frequently, you can probably do without owning a beard trimmer. For others, however, this invaluable personal grooming tool can make the difference between looking like Worzel Gummidge and maintaining a well-kept look.
