Was hoping some people here could give me some good advice. In March I started growing my beard out and let it go for around 3 months before trimming and then totally shaving it off. The first two pics below are from around right before I shaved it.
As you can see I don't really grow much hair on my chin. It started coming in a bit towards the end before I shaved it but was still pretty bare.
Now I've started growing it again but going for a different look - I'm keeping the cheek line more curved and clean and also regularly trimming it. But I still have the chin issue.
I'm in my early 40s so I dont know how much more it will change as I age - so this is what I got to work with.
I guess I'm just looking for some style advice here. I would like to have a fuller beard - did I pull the plug too quick? It was a beard but a bit afro-y and was getting unpleasant. But maybe I didn't maintain properly and should have powered through?
On the other hand I do sort of like the tighter look too. Should I save the soul patch or let it keep going?
Looking for some critique and ideas.
Thanks!
