I kept my face shaved until my 40s because my facial hair always seemed sparse and thin.
But then a few years ago I just let it go for a while, and now I have this big thick beard that is never going anywhere. Wavy hair plus length suddenly looks full!
Hmm. I’m 39… does something magical happen on your birthday. Patchy thin beard since forever, thinning top of head, but a thick chest, leg and bottom carpet :S
I’m not sure there’s a good way to know without trying. I never even tried a short beard because it never looked right until I got past the “long enough to look good” threshold.
But that doesn’t mean never trimming a single hair, or anything extreme like that. I don’t like mine to grow out to the sides, so I’ve kept the sides trimmed.

Once mine gets to a 5mm it’s very thin and embarrassing. Believe I’d love to give up shaving, and save some money too ;)
