Beard Trimming Should Be a Thing

[Orchids]

Honestly, this was (and still is!) my biggest wish for the Wilson rework.

As a Wilson main, I've grown to like some specific beard growth stages more than others, appearance wise.

I was hoping that this update would bring a feature that would perhaps let us keep the appearance of a specific beard growth phase (Like phase 1). It would be nice if the razor would let us trim our beard down back to a specific stage, and with the current features - perhaps even keep the appearance of one phase and the abiltiies of the other.

(Say I want to have the 'full beard benefits' while looking like I still have a short & trimmed beard.)

I hope this will get some attention from the moderators, I'd hate to miss the opportunity of having my voice heard after waiting so long for the Wilson update.

Oh, and while at it - it might be a funny suggestion but I'd think it would be nice if the tree growth jam would make Wilson's beard grow back by one stage instantly with each use.

Absolutely love this idea, props. Not something I thought about much myself but it seems so obvious when brought to light.

Could keep it simple and have the razor do 1 stage at a time. Or whichever the devs find easiest with implementation.
2 extra clicks won't kill most folks and you don't need to go full chin-naked in colder seasons.

Good idea I agree to add a trimmer!!!

Great idea, i'd love to be able to lock a specific beard look as well

[SuperDonuts]

In the same idea, you should be able to use brush on a level 3 beard to get a nice beard and 1 beard hair.

The game's supposed to be an uncompromising survival horror. If beard hair were to be made slightly easier to obtain while playing as the beard hair character then you may as well rename the game to Try To Starve because it'd be such an easy casual impossible to lose snoozefest that it just plays itself.

[Dragonboooorn]

Awesome idea indeed. 

Its always good to have more options, and allowing Wilson and Webber to shave their beard not only fully but to a specific level too? Sounds terrific.

I myself see some beard skins having better looks on first level, some on second.. So being able to control and choose what beard stage you want is a pleasure to have

[Archswifter]

I'd love to be able to do this, though I do see it being a bit confusing in some cases, maybe only letting us do so through something like the clean sweeper or wardrobe.

[Pizza_Hutter]

Awesome idea.

"Magic Trimmer"
"Visibly alters your beard stage"

I love this idea

[Ardcrumb]

I always think verdant at stage 1 is the best looking beard tbh

The only Wilson exclusive craftable, maybe it can use a Razor in it's crafting too! 

[GodIess]

Then the best idea is to make the razor shave only 1 stage of the beard and not the whole

That actually could work better, yea.

All of this because of beard hair? Holy **** this resource is way more OP than I had initially thought! Didn't know you can eat it!

We, noble Wilson enjoyers, must keep this topic hot so Klei will rework razor! 

shave 1 beard stage per use!

[. . .]

this would be a great thing to have. maybe right-click with a razor to shave 1-stage of beard and left-click on character to shave the entire beard

[Gi-Go]

Beard trimming should absolutely be a thing. I would honestly like to have some kind of hair growth potion in reverse that stops the beard from going further. But if I can't have that at least allow me to keep my stage 1 magnificent beard when I shave the hideous slurper off my face.

We win.
