Well the first month of growth is done. Pics are made just now. Easier benchmark to post new pics starting each month from this point on. Looking back at the first pics taken...what? Almost 2 weeks ago? There is little difference when looking at the pictures. However I do notice a lot of changes. After a week of Jojoba oil everything feels soft and smooth which is cool. No prickly feelings that could be de-motivating. The chin is really full and hard to comb the hairs into place. Letting it grow wild as per advice read around these boards. Also able to grab a bit over 1 cm worth of hair on the underside of my chin. Thinking in 3 months or so I could start with a small braid and letting it grow further. Who knows
On the side. My sideburns are filling in nicely. As are the "connectors" from the stache to beard. Trimming is done only to the neckline and a few stray hairs at the top of the cheeks. Training the stache has already created an empty patch in between the two sides hehe. The "patches" on the sides after a shower and comb are getting notibly less.
Also convinced a co-worker to do something about his facial hair last week. He stopped shaving about the same time as myself, but looks unclean. So we shaved his head bald. Spend lots of time looking for the right lines and trimmed some of. Looks cool with high sideburns, black full stache and grey patches on the goaty. He got the Jojoba oil as well now. He's going for a horseshoe stache that'll fall below the chin. And is training the grey patches to get closer towards each other. Looks really cool in contrast with each other. Trying to convince him for a pic, but no luck so far.
Other than that loving the growth and attention. Most of it is positive.
ps. A question that has been on my mind for a while now. Are there perfume oils that can be used alongside Jojoba? Would like a musky smell added into the mix.
