Trimmer is a day-to-day essential item that we use regularly in our life. But, while cleaning many people get confused and scared of damaging the product. I have used many trimmers in my life and in this post you will learn a proper guide on how to clean a beard trimmer.

How to clean a beard trimmer

A beard trimmer can be cleaned with the help of water or a brush. But, before going forward, you must understand a few precautions to avoid product damage.

• Before cleaning a beard trimmer, make sure to check whether it is a waterproof trimmer or not. If you clean a non-waterproof trimmer with water, the product may get damaged.
• If the trimmer is not waterproof then try to clean it with the help of the brush that comes in the box.
• Do not clean the trimmer while it is powered ON.
• Do not remove the trimmer’s blade screw as it is very difficult to fix and the warranty may also be terminated.

If the trimmer is waterproof, you can clean it by putting it under tap water. It is safe and easy. But, If the trimmer is not waterproof, How to clean it? Here are the steps.

How to clean a non-waterproof trimmer

You can clean a non-waterproof trimmer with the help of the brush that comes in the box. But, many times the hair used to get inside the trimmer’s body. In that case, follow the given steps.

1. Open the Trimmer blade

2. Clean the blade with the help of water. Do not worry, it is safe. But, make sure to make it dry before putting it back into the trimmer.

3. The internal part of the trimmer, especially the motor area is highly recommended to clean with the help of the brush. Don’t use water in the internal part of the trimmer as it may totally damage the product and you will not get a warranty cover for this.

This is how to clean a beard trimmer safely. As we have learned, the waterproof trimmer is easy to clean with low risk.
