Fliver welcome! On alot of guys the sideburns dont connect. suggestions about growing the hair out can for sure help with that if you feel its a big deal. it doesnt have to connect. for 5 weeks youre well on your way. so my vote is keep growing the full beard.

its really coming in nicely! Ill be interested in that question wolfcars asked. i know at my age my beard is way better now but never had a long one when younger so i have nothing to compare to.
