Nope! Looks great. (Straight white male)

[โ€“] SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 45 points 4 days ago (2 children)

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

[โ€“] Maeve@kbin.earth 16 points 4 days ago

I haven't laughed today until now. Thanks.

Beard looks good! Keep it!

[โ€“] Pudutr0n@feddit.cl 45 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Yes.

Look how much better you'd look.

[โ€“] kl0udbug@lemmy.world 72 points 4 days ago (2 children)

AI could never replicate this

[โ€“] Liz@midwest.social 3 points 3 days 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.

Damn, I like it.

[โ€“] kindenough@kbin.earth 25 points 4 days ago

No, looks nice.

[โ€“] Mothra@mander.xyz 32 points 4 days ago

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

[โ€“] kl0udbug@lemmy.world 32 points 4 days ago (4 children)
[โ€“] murmelade@lemmy.ml 10 points 4 days ago

Very handsome bro. I say keep it.

[โ€“] Maeve@kbin.earth 13 points 4 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.

[โ€“] JackbyDev@programming.dev 2 points 3 days 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€“] wuphysics87@lemmy.ml 26 points 4 days ago

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

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

[โ€“] Ludrol@szmer.info 13 points 4 days ago

I would go for even longer one.

[โ€“] onlooker@lemmy.ml 10 points 4 days ago

Looks fine to me

[โ€“] weariedfae@sh.itjust.works 14 points 4 days ago

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

[โ€“] AbidingOhmsLaw@lemmy.ml 17 points 4 days ago (1 children)

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

Fellas wanna form a line? Single aisle please.

[โ€“] Pinklink@lemm.ee 4 points 4 days ago

Baby elephant walk bro! Buh buh buh buh!

[โ€“] kepix@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

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

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.

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

[โ€“] BreadOven@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago

You're rocking it. Don't change.

Personnaly I would give it a very slight trim

[โ€“] Aksamit@slrpnk.net 9 points 4 days 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€“] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 10 points 4 days ago

Looks good to me

[โ€“] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago
[โ€“] fjordo@feddit.uk 7 points 4 days ago

I think it suits you. Definitely keep.

[โ€“] pseudo@jlai.lu 4 points 4 days ago
[โ€“] Tungsten5@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago

Neck beards never work

[โ€“] victorz@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

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

[โ€“] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 4 days ago

Nah, its a good look for you.

[โ€“] Thesilverpig@lemmy.ml 6 points 4 days ago

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

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

[โ€“] loomy@lemy.lol 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

no, but some skin lotion might be good

[โ€“] bremen15@feddit.org 4 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Really? His skin looks even and smooth as a baby's butt. Why lotion?

I agree that you should grow it out a bit. How far is debatable.

Disclosure: I am a white guy currently growing my beard out trying to find what length I can get away with while keeping it trimmed.

[โ€“] Geobloke@lemm.ee 4 points 4 days ago

If anything, you need more beard

beard looks good, especially if you keep the lines tight like you do with your haircut
