A great beard trim isn't just cleaning up the edges — it's balancing your face, your hair and your natural growth pattern.
At Empire Barbershop Amsterdam West, a beard trim starts from €25 and takes 20–30 minutes. Here's what a full appointment covers, and how to keep your beard looking sharp between visits.
What a Full Beard Trim Includes
Cheek line, neckline and moustache shaping — all cut to complement your face shape, then finished with a straight razor for a clean edge.
Beard Trim & Hot Towel — from €39.99
Adds a warm hot towel treatment before the shape, and a premium aftershave balm to close the pores. The most complete beard-only appointment on the menu.
How Often to Trim Your Beard
Every 3–4 weeks for a defined short or medium beard. Every 5–6 weeks for longer beards where you're mostly maintaining shape.
Aftercare — Oil, Balm & Comb
Beard oil daily to soften and hydrate. Balm for longer beards to hold shape. Comb from the neck up in the direction of growth.
