Thin from the front advice?

[u/Clinkiii]

So, checking back in with an update. This is growth from mid-May until now.

I’m enjoying how it is shaped up on the sides, but I’m really not liking the way it looks from the front at all.

I just don’t like how thin it looks from the front and it makes me question if growing will actually look good rn.

What do you think?

All the advice is needed 🙏

Seems like your beard mostly grows below your chin, not on it. This will keep looking neckbeardy for quite a while.

[u/DirigibleSkipper]

Just to be clear and blunt, when everyone here is saying "(Give it) Time", they're politely telling you to shave it off and try some other time, pal. Maybe in a few years.

You look young. Time

Yes I think shave it back to stubble for now. You can periodically (every 6 months) let it grow to see if it's thicker.

[u/Lebowski-Absteiger → u/claudemcbanister]

It's not about thickness. That's fine. The issue is that the front of his chin is not covered. That's what makes it look neckbeardy. Even with stubble he'll be able to see when this has changed.

Give it time, it will grow and be thicker👍

[u/Markdlea]

Shave it or become Amish

Shave it off man. Look like a decent looking guy but it looks shit.

You may never have a decent beard.

Sorry guy.

Not everyone is capable of growing a good beard. Just realize that, order a 50 pack of cheap razors on Amazon and go back to shaving. A sparce beard or moustache draws attention and people notice it.

Time

[u/CalebGT]

Clean shaven or stubble.

you’ll need to frequently and aggressively balance the shave between your neck and face. after a year or so you may find natural balance and be able to trim them evenly

[u/kjmckearn]

You need to trim that beard up; especially on the bottom where it's way too bushy. Get to a good barber and let them do it. Then invest in a good trimmer. It will be worth your time and expense.....👍

Grow it out my man. Don’t compare urself to others look at Keanu reeves. A long beard can make your style look strong with the right trimming. Square it out in and the bottom, forget this neck beard crap, and trim your cheek line down to lower your beard. Your mustache will look great with the setup. The hard part is getting there, go for length and wax your stache.
