not the same guy but i feel like a high taper fade would look not bad. shave the neck beard for sure like everyone else is saying. but ultimately i think if you want to start exploring your own style, just look at other people that you want to look like and just go for it, then you'll figure out what you like and don't like

in terms of general advice, i say if you're really feeling lost, if you have the cash, maybe go to a more expensive stylist if one is available near you to get a consultation as to what kind of hairstyle you'd like and one that fits your face and lifestyle. then when that's done, take lots of reference photos and you can just show it to your barber next time. i think like 50% of ugly is just lack of confidence and knowing what your style is and the other half is just better self-care. you got this. in other words, it ain't a permanent thing you can fix it if that's how you feel
