4 days is waaaaaay to soon to be trimming. seriously - you can drastically underestimate your beard boundaries and potential. for some, like me, even 3 months was too soon. i started off hoping i could grow a tailback /extended goatee, and if i was really lucky a balbo. if i had tried to determine my beard potential and lines back then, let alone less than a month into growing, i would definitely not have my current beard.
so, resist those trimming urges for a while


My bearding milestones
  • when I stopped saying "I'm growing a beard" and started saying "I have beard"
  • when i quit comparing my beard to others, particularly models
  • when i quit thinking "I wish my beard looked like his"
  • when i accepted my beard

  • Don't give up on a patchy beard too soon
