By Con, founder of Music Wide Selfie · Updated 22 October 2026
Short answerA good trimmer with guards, a sharp razor, a hand mirror plus a wall mirror, bright front light, small scissors for brows and nose, a comb, and a moisturiser. Add a phone stand to check hard-to-see spots.
Essentials
- Trimmer with a range of guards.
- Razor and fresh blades.
- Hand mirror and wall mirror.
- Bright, even light.
- Small scissors and a comb.
Nice to have
- Neck duster.
- Magnifying mirror for detail.
- Phone stand for checking the back.
Hygiene
Clean tools after use and don’t share razors.
Questions
Do I need clippers and a trimmer?
Clippers for hair length, a trimmer for detail. Many trimmers do both well enough for touch-ups.
