There shouldn't be any luck involved... if you don't want anything trimmed, just say that you want your head hair to blend into your sideburns without any trimming of them. If you want any one area of your beard trimmed, be very specific about it.
The haircut went well, with me doing just as you said. No facial hair was trimmed (and actually, the lady who did it made a comment about liking beards — unlike the last one who cut my hair, who seemed eager to trim whatever she could, when I was only at 3 weeks!). 

When I give an update this week (which I WILL be doing, since it will be Week 13, the 3 month mark), I think the haircut will allow you to see just how dark my sideburns can get, even now.
