I just recommend gentle patience in combing his face. Do you have a wider toothed comb to use? The metal "greyhound" combs seem to glide through the hair more smoothly. There is a shorter one for faces.
I understand about the stiff whiskers from eating, etc. If you comb through them at least once a day they will not become so clumped. He just needs to get used to you handling his face, including his teeth so you can brush them.
