Beard looks good! Keep it!

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

Do you want to get rid of the beard? Do what you want.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 23 hours ago

Neck beards never work

[โ€“] [email protected] 25 points 1 day ago

No, looks nice.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Beard is fine, hair had to sharpof corners IMO. Looks like you have a helmet on

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

Looks fine to me

[โ€“] [email protected] 56 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Nope! Looks great. (Straight white male)

[โ€“] [email protected] 43 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I'm not sure, but I don't think he's a straight white male?

[โ€“] [email protected] 16 points 2 days ago

I haven't laughed today until now. Thanks.

Have you tried turning your phone upside down?

[โ€“] [email protected] 42 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Yes.

Look how much better you'd look.

[โ€“] [email protected] 70 points 2 days ago (2 children)

AI could never replicate this

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Okay, actually though? Keep the mustache, drop the beard, and cut weight (fix your diet) and you would be killer. You look great now, but I can see an even hotter version of you in your future with just a little hard work.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Don't try to be hot. Don't try to be anything that you're not. Remain genuine, you're good man.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

Damn, I like it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago

I would go for even longer one.

[โ€“] [email protected] 32 points 2 days ago

No, keep it. It frames your face in a favorable way for you.

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago

Personnaly I would give it a very slight trim

[โ€“] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

It suits you but I think you would look fine either way.

[โ€“] [email protected] 31 points 2 days ago (4 children)
[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

Very handsome bro. I say keep it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

How do you style it under your chin? I recently started doing it differently and got compliments. I'd done it before but forgot how lol. If it stops right at your jaw bone instead of going down your neck it tends to look cleaner.

But overall based on what I'm seeing it looks nice. I'm biased though because I like beards.

[โ€“] [email protected] 13 points 2 days ago

It needs a bit more definition, a beard balm and comb, as well. imo. Seconding lotion, or massage in some on wet skin, then pat dry, if you feel lotion alone is too greasy. But I'm in agreement with experimenting.

That much facial hair doesn't take long to grow. Try all combos. Nothing. Stash only. Beard only. Both. I have a full beard (including neck) if I do nothing. But I'll cut it in several ways depending how I feel. I figured why not try it a few ways and see how I like it. Some stuck. Others didn't

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

I like it on you, needs a little more on the cheeks tho.

Btw that looks like fungal acne (it's common don't worry!), washing your face with a dandruff shampoo will clear your skin up. And don't forget to moisturise!

[โ€“] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago

You're rocking it. Don't change.

[โ€“] [email protected] 16 points 2 days ago

I'm in agreement with the keep it crowd. Looks good on you. Not that you'd not look good without it, but you picked a style that really accentuates your features very well.

[โ€“] [email protected] 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

From my perspective, Keep it. You should ask your SO though.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 22 hours ago

well the chicks mostly like the beard, as long as its thick and well maintaned.

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Fellas wanna form a line? Single aisle please.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Baby elephant walk bro! Buh buh buh buh!

[โ€“] cyberpunk007 10 points 1 day ago

Looks good to me

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

I think it suits you. Definitely keep.

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago
[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

I think either would suit you. Keep or don't, do what feels best for you. ๐Ÿ™‚

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

Nah, its a good look for you.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

Looks pretty clean as is, I would need to see without picsto fully know, but looks good as is imo.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago
[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

If anything, you need more beard

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

up to you, and your sense of style. I think it looks fine.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago (5 children)

no, but some skin lotion might be good
