A beard may be widest at the cheeks, at the jaw corners or nearer the chin. Shaving around its perimeter can move that widest point without greatly changing the overall length. Identify where you want the width to remain before the outline is refined.
Ask your barber to compare the three areas from straight ahead. You can then discuss which boundaries should narrow and which should stay substantial. A strong reference photograph should show the full beard rather than cropping off the lower section. For a hot towel shave in Sydney CBD, agreeing on the position of width helps make the design intentional and keeps the focus on proportions instead of one isolated edge.
