Repairing a Cheek Line: All-in Method
-
- Using this method, just stop shaving again altogether.
- Let the entire beard grow outside the line that you wish to modify.
- Optionally trim back your existing beard growth. This is not required, but doing so means that the new growth will not have as far to go to “catch up”
- Give the new growth enough time to grow out so that you can start to see the proper location for the new cheek lines. Allow at least a week or two, possibly more. The more it grows, the more it starts to blend with your existing beard growth.
- When you’re ready to go for it, follow the directions here for defining your new cheek lines: Choosing a cheek line for your full beard
- After you’ve successfully defined your new cheek lines, you can periodically trim back your existing beard growth while letting the new growth continue. Soon, they will even out.
- Congratulations on your new-and-improved beard!
