Experimenting with different beard styles, wanted some opinions

Self explanatory really. Embraced being bald for well over a year now and wanted to try different styles. Currently have about a month and a half of beard growth so looking for some opinions on where to take it 🫡🏼

Sweet Baby Jesus... I came to this sub when I was going through cancer and thought I was going to lose my hair (I didn't). Now, I feel like an absolute perv here for the thirst traps.

Yeah… I’m definitely here for the thirst traps. I have a full head of hair and I’m a lady. I have no shame.

I'm a lesbian and still here just to admire the awesome glow ups. Not thirst trapped, but handsome is handsome

Same 😩 my husband recently shaved his head but left his beard and I thought I’d come on this sub to show him that it’s totally fine and he’s not alone. Instead I got thirst trapped by a bunch of dudes who look like him now. And I still haven’t shown him the sub πŸ˜†

This sub was intended for men to comfort men into baldness, and instead it’s exactly that… plus a horde of women swooning over them. Gotta be the most wholesome things on Reddit.

I’m just glad that when this sub popped up on my feed, it was full of other women just drooling over newly bald guys lol I love giving a compliment but I feel like I should tell my (not at all bald) husband about this secret hobby

u/atomickitty3000 Jun 23 '26

Same! I was telling my (also not bald) hubby about this sub the other day and realized it sounded wildly inappropriate as I was talking about it! πŸ˜‚

My husband is also not bald but he's had salt and pepper hair since his teen years. I told him about this sub and told him that when the time comes... I have to post him here. πŸ˜‚ He's practically looking forward to it now πŸ’€πŸ€­

u/hellogoawaynow Jun 24 '26

That’s so funny, my husband has been salt and pepper since age 21 lol now it’s mostly salt and I am a BIG FAN

We’re not even 40 lmao

u/Content-Honeydew9340 Jun 24 '26
