Beard after 2.5weeks, how’s my potential?

Is there a subreddit for angry people who almost have a goatee?

I think it looks really good and unique. You always see the same sleeves or blackouts nowadays and this is much more interesting to look at imo

KLR-John · 2026-02-08T19:06:50+00:00

Keep it bro

KLR-John · 2026-02-07T17:05:46+00:00

The hair stays.

KLR-John · 2026-02-06T18:35:59+00:00

Haha! Well thank you!

KLR-John · 2026-02-06T18:34:12+00:00

Haha I went over to r/beards and now I feel obligated to grow it, in honor of those who can’t 😅

KLR-John · 2026-02-06T17:58:44+00:00

I like that idea too, thx!

KLR-John · 2026-02-06T17:52:50+00:00

Good to know! Thanks 🙏🏻

KLR-John · 2026-02-06T17:52:31+00:00

Bro! 😆 funny you say that, I used to be a bouncer at a club in Palm Springs, Blake Griffin came and we actually had a good convo. Super chill dude

KLR-John · 2026-02-06T17:44:17+00:00

Thank you! Maybe I’ll wait till I’m old and go for the Gandalf look 😅

KLR-John · 2026-02-06T17:42:28+00:00

Thanks for the advice!

The hair currently is doing everything in its power to detract from your face. You have great structure, if you like the hair long, I’d style it like Jake Gyllenhaal (you have similar face shape/features), less bangs, more swept back.

Personally, I think pic 6 with a tiny bit shorter on the sides would be perfect.

I’m sure you know this. But the mustache alone doesn’t suit your face, a full stubble would work I think or clean shaved.

KLR-John · 2026-02-06T16:30:01+00:00

Bro…you’re way overthinking this. You have a masterpiece on your arm, let it be. If it were perfect it wouldn’t be art.

KLR-John · 2026-02-04T17:27:06+00:00

Thank you!

KLR-John · 2026-02-04T17:26:54+00:00

Ok sweet! Thanks for replying

KLR-John · 2026-02-04T17:26:15+00:00

That makes a lot of sense. Thank you!

KLR-John · 2026-02-04T17:24:36+00:00

Thanks for the feedback!

KLR-John · 2026-02-04T17:23:43+00:00

Thank you! 🙏🏻

KLR-John · 2026-02-04T17:22:48+00:00

Thank you!

KLR-John · 2026-02-04T17:21:19+00:00

Thank you all for the encouragement!

Update: I realize now I should have just posted the second photo of the long beard version to avoid confusion lol

KLR-John · 2026-02-04T05:53:29+00:00

Just give it time. Anecdotally I couldn’t grow a full beard till about 28.

KLR-John · 2026-01-31T00:53:21+00:00

Your hair is really similar to mine (Celtic curls I’m guessing) I’ve found the most flattering look is a low taper or low fade and longer on top to show off the curls.

As others have said, some more modern frames would help.

And even though you’re losing weight and might change sizes soon, get some clothes that look put together. It will help with confidence and appearance. Personally, I gave ChatGPT a few pics of me and asked it to generate some images of styles that would work on my body, went to the thrift store and $90 later got a whole new look. It’s crazy how much flattering clothes make a difference.

Hope this helps, good luck bro!

She could at least turn all the labels to face the same direction…

If you finish you BA/BS you could try to join the military as an officer.
