A beard can present a relatively straight front plane while retaining a curved underside. From straight ahead it may look square, but a profile can reveal a softer shape beneath the chin. Those two views should be discussed separately before shaving around it.
Ask your barber which edge would change if you request a squarer finish. You may mean the visible front corners rather than the entire underside. Showing both views makes that distinction easier to explain. For a hot towel shave in Sydney CBD, agreeing on the front and lower boundaries helps preserve the intended beard design without making the word square carry several different instructions at once.
