Taming The Beast

January 10, 2010 by Michele Neylon 8 Comments

I stopped shaving a few weeks ago. It wasn’t a conscious decision to grow a beard or anything like that. I simply didn’t shave for a few days and a few days became a few weeks.

I’m now looking more and more unkempt (my sister thought I looked a bit like a Taliban, but that’s another story)

So yesterday while messing around with my Mac I decided to take a mugshot of myself and update my Facebook profile.

The reaction was pretty amusing. A random change has led to a silly amount of activity on my “wall”.

But, as you can see, while the beard itself may not be too bad (that’s obviously a matter of opinion) it definitely needs to be tidied up.

So I asked around for recommendations for beard trimmers. One brand name kept on being mentioned – Wahl. I’ll have to admit I’d never heard of them, but it transpires that they are “the” brand for beard trimmers (who’d have known?).

Amazon stock several of their products, so I ordered one last night:

I probably won’t take delivery of it for a few days, as Amazon are reporting delays with shipping due to the bad weather.

So why did I choose that particular model of beard trimmer?

What caught my eye was the range of options.

The device comes with four different blades which would appear to give you the options for both beard trimming and also handling shaving your head. Since I haven’t been to a hairdresser in over 10 years I’ve no interest in starting now!

Once I’ve got the trimmer and put it through its motions I should be able to give a more comprehensive review.
