Funny, I don't think of my beard as Hollywoodian, but I can see how it can seem that way. I do have sideburns, but they don't fully connect to my balding head, especially on my problematic right side. Anyway, no offense taken. I think the main idea is to identify the strengths in your beard and maximize those to great effect. Seems to me like you're figuring that out, and if your beard continues to develop into your later 30s or so like mine, you can change it up as you notice areas filling in.

Now, as an aside, if you search Google for "bottom heavy beard", I appear FIRST in the images. It was kind of annoying until I started looking at who else shows up there. Then a few weeks ago a friend told me I also appear under "the taper beard". Again, I ended up in the company of some men with fine beards. So there you go. The internet is forever!
