Well guys,
I wasn´t strong enough to leave my beard untouched till I reach my first goal, but I just needed to do something because I´ve lost the fun on this journey. I really felt bad the last days. So I decided to visit my 23 years young german-turkish barber today to have my first surface trim. My girlfriend also told me to do it because she felt that there is something wrong with me.
First he has done my haircut. Great as usually.

I was very very nervous while he trimmed my beard.
I just told him before: "Don´t touch the stache and just clean it up a little, I want to grow it longer." He just said "No problem, shall i give it a little shape?" I said "Yes, I trust you".
He trimmed a little with the scissor, a little bit with the electric-trimmer. I thought ok thats it.
But then he foamed my hole beard and took his razor-knive.... I thought "Goodbye beard image"
But thanks god he only cleaned the neckline and cheeklines with it.
I surely lost a lot of hairs, but gained a lot of confidence back. I am totally happy with it and that is what I needed so urgent at this point!
At home I just trimmed the end of my "stache-wings" a little. also a good decision.

I´m gonna take some more pictures outside on friday when its time for my 10 week update.

Cheers Tom
