  • This may sound like an elementary question, but I've been trying to find a foolproof way of having two-day scruff without dealing with that grey area in between shaves. Any advice?

  • Ah yes, the two-day scruff. It's become something of a modern classic—at once masculine and youthfully carefree—conveying that you're a man who doesn't bother with conventions. But in reality, most guys with a shadow perpetually paused at 5 o'clock, have spent more time pruning that scruff than if they were just to simply shave. But you just want to know how to maintain it, so here's your best bet: a beard trimmer set to your desired length. Here are three we'd recommend.

$30

With its light weight and wet/dry capabilities, this is perfect for mowing in the shower.

Philips Norelco Vacuum Trimmer
$26

The razor's vacuum ensures your significant other won't bust your balls for hair left in the sink.

Wahl Lithium Ionicon
$40

This trimmer requires changing guards for different lengths, but gets seven shaves off one hour-long charge.

Those pulling off the look: Bradley Cooper, Hugh Jackman, Justin Timberlake

I recently stayed at a hotel that had a mirror in the shower for shaving. Do you know of a good one to use?

I've been having really bad razor burn lately. Can you recommend something for the redness, bumps and pain?
