Having a trim this week, not sure what I should go for?

I’m 29 first time trying to grow a beard 3-4 weeks in. I’m not sure if it looks stupid or not so I’m not sure if I should persevere with it

Started using oil and brushing it down

On the left was as its longest towards the start of this year, been on a bit of a weight loss journey and over the months made a few chops to it until finally last night, got rid of the beard completely! Not sure how I’m feeling about it but it’ll grow back! 🤞🏼

This is roughly 7 weeks of growth. Only trimming the neck and cheek line. I love the idea of a long beard, but I’m not sure if I should try it.

I never really tried to grow a beard because I haven got the best hair growth. Since I’m on vacation I did not care to shave and now I’m thinking about to keep going.

Is there any potential?

Should I try or will I just look awfully stupid while letting it grow longer?

How long does a beard take to grow full?

Advice, feedback, anything welcome!

Looking for some tips on my beard. Is my cheek line good? Or should I round it more? Go shorter or keep length?

Hi guys, a note 😊

And should i change something to improve

A few months ago I asked the same question. I had a stubble at that time, people said it looked good. Now my beard is a bit longer, it seems really patchy to me and both sides dont look the same.

Maybe a stubble does look better? Im jn doubt to keep growing or just trim it back. What do you guys think? Give it to me straight.

Also because my hairs are quite blonde it really depends on the area light if it looks thick or not.

Been bouncing around and basically always changing it but always leaving something. Flannel is current.

1 is how i have it now, trimming it every couple of weeks.

2 was how it looked after 3 months without touching it.

3 has the 3 months grow but trimmed a bit

4 trimmed more

5 bare face as reference

I feel my I don't have great density, mainly in my cheeks. Should I try growing it back, maybe keep ir neater with some oil and pomade? I feel it trimmed shorter like now (or even shorter) would be more "formal" or "clean", but it would look too sparse maybe. What do you all think?

Also if i were to keep it, how do I take care of it?

This is the current state of my beard, and I’m planning to start a proper beard-growth and maintenance routine. My goal is to grow my beard to around 3–4 inches in length and then maintain it at that length consistently.

At present, I only apply almond oil and comb my beard. I’m also planning to get a boar-bristle brush.

Please suggest a complete beard-care routine for me, including what I should do during the growth phase and how I should maintain the beard once it reaches 3–4 inches.
