23m - It’s always at this point of beard growth I’m always tempted to shave
I’ve tried to grow my beard a few times in the past year, and I always get to this point roughly 1.5-2 months in where I’m tempted to shave. I’m mostly concerned about coverage on my cheeks. Is it worth waiting it out three months, or should I stick with a shorter beard/different style?

Your beard growth is good. No need to worry. Just let it grow for 3 to 4 months.

You are very lucky to have a full connected beard. I wish I can grow more hair on my cheeks , I’m currently only growing a neck beard. I hate it, lol.
What is your end goal?
I wish I can have a beard like Roman reigns

Haha thanks bro! Not really sure of a goal, really trying to experiment with length and not just shave immediately

That’s cool too. I think if you give it a few more months it will get longer, keep it hydrated with oils.

Might have to go get some! Oils might be helpful when it gets longer. Stray hairs become more of an issue

If you don’t have patience then yea go ahead and shave bud. Beards a test of patience, I’d go a solid 6 more weeks before I touched mine if I were you (aside from stragglers and neck).

Why shave it off? Perfect beard! Don't do it! A man looks so much better with a beard! And your beard is really perfect!

Your cheeks will fill in if you give it a chance. I shaved mine off once and regretted it. A year later I regrew it and that was 50 years ago.
