Neck hair has a natural transition of occipital scalp hairs meeting the neck hairs about the lower ears level on the posterior neck. The occipital scalp hair has a natural horizontal chord across the circumference of the posterior neck and curves as desired symmetrically towards the left and right ear about the ear lobes level.

The self-user then can shave, trim, or cut their unwanted neck hair with the use of a trimmer or shaver without over trimming or shaving of the hair past the templates desired parameters.


The device has hinges extending laterally off the templates support bridge distancing the hinges from the utility device body. The support bridge height allows trimming of whole natural curvature of the occipital neck hair, trimming underneath an adjustable facial strap do to the support bridge elevation. The utility device body flexes for contoured fitting to the occipital posterior neck. As a shaving or trimming device comes in contact with the neck hairline shaving template a demarcation of the unwanted neck hair is trimmed, cut, or shaved and the natural symmetrical pattern of scalp hairs is left intact.
