A beard corner that looks sharp from the front may appear rounded or uneven when viewed from below. The underside reveals how the lower plane meets the outer side. If you want a defined geometric shape, that junction deserves its own check.
What to discuss with your barber
Ask your barber to explain the connection before shaving around it. You may prefer a clear corner from the front while keeping a gentler underside, which is a different request from a fully squared shape. For a hot towel shave in Sydney CBD, considering both views gives the retained beard a coherent outline. It avoids assuming that the edge visible in the main mirror tells the whole story.
