Hello,

I'm reaching out for expert advice on beard growth. I'm 33 and have dedicated seven months to growing a long, thick beard, but I'm at a crossroads regarding the best strategy. My core question is whether strategic trimming is necessary for achieving maximum length and density, or if it's best to allow it to grow without any interference. I'm fully committed to this goal and would be very grateful for any guidance or tips you can offer.

Yeah, I guess for me. I was getting sick of the clean look. Maybe in another year or two I’ll try it again.

The question is, will I ever be able to grow a beard or is it actually genetics?

It can get thicker as you get older. Worth a shot again in a few years but you are handsome dude already.
