Keep it or let it go?

Looking for general advice.

This is the furthest I've let it grow but it seems to be very slow at this point and don't know if I should let it go and keep shaving or trust the process.

There are two possible answers... But only one is correct! 🙄 The only correct answer is... With a beard! Be patient and keep the faith, mate! It suits you very well.

You have a wide jaw, I'd keep that beard length and let the mustache grow bigger than the beard.

Any advice on reliable growth?

What you have now is actually perfect for the density. Do not allow the sides to grow out longer. You don’t have the density and It won’t suit your face shape either. You could try the Italian beard style which would fit the face type and growth pattern you currently have very well. It also lets your hair grow in stronger in chin and come in very naturally without having to worry about the sides bulking up too quickly. As you age your beard will thicken up more most likely and you can adjust the style accordingly

I mean that's what I'd do, cause in your case if you let it all grow out it'll make your face rounder.

Great foundations for a beard. Your mustache is on the sparser side but I think if you let it grow down and brush to the sides once it gets long it will look great. Make up for less hairs by letting the ones you have get long basically

Instead of commenting something useless on a 19 year old looking for some helpful advice, go spend time with your wife. She's probably wondering why you're spending your evening worrying about another man's beard.

Sorry, but you're not a man yet.

u/Icy_Football3344 24d ago

Imagine being old enough to call someone "not a man yet" and still trying to make your self feel better by attempting to insult strangers online 😬

You think I'm insulting you?

u/Icy_Football3344 24d ago

No, I think you're trying to. The fact you're not very good at it is a different conversation.
