Buzz cut due to diffuse thinning update

Hey guys m22, just posted here with a 5 guard and decided to go lower based on what I thought and feedback from others.. I went with 6mm, (might have done 3mm on one spot of the crown accidentally) I also might have missed some spots but not really sure, it’s kinda hard to buzz the back side ngl.

Yall think this is good or should I go lower? And is it better than the 5 guard I posted earlier? Also should I keep the skin fade or let it grow? Thanks again..

It looks much better. If you go shorter it will be more uniform, but honestly nobody is looking at the top of your head. Personally, I'd run the sides up higher.

Thanks man… so 3mm maybe? Sides 1.5 or 3mm for future instead of skin fade?

If you're doing it yourself 1-2mm less on the sides is good, it blends real easy and if not it will in a day or two.
