Beardvarian, you have a great looking beard that will only improve with time. It is very easy to get discouraged especially if you are comparing your beard to others. Stay strong! You have an awesome stache by the way, so wear it proudly! I had trouble with mine staying in place all day as well until Dirk (aka beard69) told me about a fantastic holding product called "bayrishe bartwichse". I believe its German, so you should be able to find it fairly easily over there! I ordered my from Amazon. I'm telling you nothing holds like this stuff, so try it out...I dressed my stache in a handlebar fashion before I left this morning (7 hrs. ago). I have been working with customers all day, and it hasn't budged! So Keep Beardin' Strong, Dude!
