Thanks for the positive comments guys! I'm pretty pleased with where it's at for 5 weeks. My dad had a mustache my whole life that was pretty wicked. I have good genes for that area apparently. As for long term goals, I'm not entirely sure. I work at the HQ of a pretty large company just outside of Chicago here, and while there is no beard policy that I'm aware of, I also like my job and don't want to ruffle any feathers there either. I'll probably have to trim it up a little at some point, but for now I'm going to just let it go.

Maintenance wise, just using some conditioner in there every other day or so as I read on another thread, and using a general hair comb. Going to look into your suggestions today and pick some stuff up. Thanks again!
