I'm in the process of regrowing my mustache, and I'm exploring different trimming methods to avoid past mistakes. Previously, trimming around the mouth-line has always been a challenge for me, as I often accidentally cut too high and had to shave it all off. This time, I'm considering using only electric clippers for uniformity, but I'm concerned about potentially making irreversible cuts. From my research, many people still recommend using scissors to cut the mouth-line, even with the aid of clippers for general maintenance. Lately, I've been using cuticle scissors and they've allowed for more precise adjustments. I'm also experimenting with a combination of a fine comb and a razor for detailing. Others suggest the use of a barber's comb and scissors, using the comb as a guide. For those who have successfully maintained a well-groomed mustache, I'm curious about your experiences: Do you prefer using clippers or scissors to trim the mouth-line? What are your best techniques for achieving a symmetrical look without over-cutting? I'd love to hear about your methods for mustache maintenance, particularly how you handle the delicate mouth-line area.

Definitely advocate for scissors when precision is key.

I've found using both clippers and scissors for the mouth-line works best. Experimenting with different techniques can help find what works for you!
