A facial hair trimmings catcher useful during personal grooming that is collapsible or otherwise adapted for storing as a smaller unit. The catcher includes a bag comprising a closed bottom, closed side walls and an open top and further includes a support member that is attached to the side walls to form a support configuration. The support configuration supports the bag under the face of the user. The support member may include a support strap adapted for passing behind the neck of the user. The bag may be held open by a flexible tension member extending around a top periphery as a frame or disposed as a frame for the side walls such that the bag may be quickly opened or collapsed.
