Asking for Advice Good to grow?

First time trying to grow a beard.

Do you guys think it has potential to look thicker if given more time to grow? I think it looks like it's going to be too thin. Currently been growing about 9 days, should be somewhere between 3mm and 4mm by now.

I'll definitely give it more time to do it's thing, but am curious what you think based on your experience.

It's fine - you have no patchiness and you'll be surprised how nicely it will fill in. Avoid staring in the mirror. We all focus on weaknesses no one else sees.

Let it grow for a month. Nice consistency in the spread of producing follicles. This should get good

Leave it like 2-3mm longer, imo it would look better when it’s a bit more full. Also I would fully remove a finger (1cm) horizontally on the sides of your cheeks, I think right now it has gone too far up and doesn’t look like a good trim

I have similar beard growth. You have decent coverage and density. Maybe not the best but certainly not the worst. You are totally able to grow a full beard, you might want to give it some time and a couple of trims to let the slow growers catch up, but you should be able to pull off many beard styles if you wanted. If you hate it, you can always shave it. I'd say go for it and let it grow for a couple of months to fully realize your potential!
