Hello gents! Thanks for being patient and still checking on this thread, despite my conspicuous absence in the last few weeks. Busy doesn't even begin to describe it. But in all the madness, the beard is still with me and doesn't look like it's going to leave ever again.
I haven't bothered doing a full multi-pic update as there really isn't anything new compared to the other time. I'm still keeping it relatively short, trimming to about 1/2" every 8-10 days. The moustache, on the other hand, has hit plateau and it's exactly where I want it to be now - I only trim slightly over the upper lip to keep hair out of my mouth, and to one side to keep the connectors symmetrical (as the right is noticeably thicker than the left if left untouched).
This pic has been taken just after the last trim. Not a great result this time round, I really need to invest in a better trimmer (it looks a lot better in the photo than it does IRL) but it'll sort itself out in a few days.
In hindsight I guess the first attempt, with all the attendant stress and worry, was really just a test run for the reboot. I feel I've really grown into it and now it's just a part of me; most importantly I've learned not to stress about it even if sometimes it doesn't look perfect or as good as other folks'. Heck, at work I've even officially become THE guy with the beard now, what else could you ask for
Hope you guys are all well and still growing strong. I am still checking on a few threads now and again but not interacting much... hopefully things will calm down a bit after the summer and I'll be a bit more active on the board again. Until then, all the best!
