Hi men, and (shaving ladies) out there!

For those that trim their facial hair, and for whatever reason prefer not to shave electric or blade,
How do you trim, without leaving a lot of hair all over the sink?

I'm currently trying out trimming using some shaving cream, but it doesn't allow me to see or feel if all the hairs are trimmed.
By using minimal cream it does keep the trimmed hairs together, and the sink a lot cleaner.

Any other suggestions on how not to have my entire sink full of trimmed hairs?

I just clean out the sink after I'm done trimming.

It's a sink. It's made for messes, and it's easy to clean.

Trim you hair over a large towel. Clean up is a breeze just shake the hair out into a trash can or outside.

Problem is, my hairs fly all over the place,
In between the bottles that are on the side of the sink, on the floor, etc...

You could always hang a mirror in the garage

Keep a wet paper towel to wipe the razor after a pass. Shave more frequently, and wipe the sink down after use.

A wash clothes, and some scrubbing bubbles near by is the quickest solution.

Even easier, cover/line the sink with damp paper towel. Throw away when done. You will be done by the time you could set up any beard bib.

Shave or trim in the shower.

Or on a tree outside. That would also amuse the birds when you weren't outside manscaping.

There's probably not a whole lot you can do. Although I recently started shaving with a blade again I still use the trimmer on my Norelco to trim my mustache.
