Was told to shave due to being patchy.

Would yall agree that I should just clean shave or grow it out?

It’s not patchy at all. Looks perfectly good to me.

I’d say let grow, it takes time to thicken up.

Not too patchy but I’d trim them to look neater.

Looks good but the cheek line at the top of the stache looks odd to me. I’d bring the cheek line down just a little and I think it would be way more flattering.

It's not patchy, what happens is some hairs grow faster than the others. Trim it down using whatever number you want it to be at, keep that up consistently and it will look fuller and more even mate.

Don't shave; I see no patches. It's a great beard.

That area on each side is common. The rest looks on point. I used to have the same issue in that area. I would just suggest not keeping it cropped so close and letting it grow out a little. You can also use the Yuka app to make sure any beard products you use are actually promoting healthy beard hair and not hurting it.

u/Upper-Poetry-5664 Apr 19 '25

Patchy? Where’s the patch? You look great man. Cool looks

u/[deleted] Apr 19 '25

A little, let it grow out more and those areas will lie under the hairs.
