Beard is such a largely untapped looksmaxing avenue, not just having a beard but the way in which you shape and maintain it
You can’t just grow one and call it a day, it needs to be trimmed and shaped so it’s not just an indiscriminate head of hair on the bottom of your head
You should taper it with different guard lengths and divide it to create the impression of shape and angularity
Some tips to keep in mind and try out:
Cut under the lips to give impression of a longer chin, and also above the lips to avoid the look of small lips
Cut small slits between the goatee and the cheeks to have a divide and give overall shape and angularity
Do NOT completely shave under your neck, will look try hard and too clean cut. It’s a fine line between well groomed and metro/overgroomed and this crosses it
having a bit of scruff under the neck looks good just don’t go overboard, use a short guard rather than a full shave for it
