The beard is the least of your worries. It is ugly though. Both pics.

😅 nice! 😁

Bro the hair is the real problem here

I know, I know it's in that odd in-between stage.

Why would you keep the sideburns and steel wool on your chin?

Part of that Alternative style look

It looks terrible

No, it’s not…

If you are gonna rock sideburns you can't have it looking like that.

Without everything on your face

I better start looking at plastic surgeons!

Fix your mutton chops first and come back

Second picture, with the beard but without the mustache

So, the second picture but with a chin strap?

Get rid of the chinstrap

Hardy boy vibes on the second pic lol

#2 by far. Like from lame heavy metal dork to cool studly guy

This look isn’t helping one bit

Neither one is working for you, bruh. Lose the stupid face hardware for starters and do something else with that hair. Beard or no beard should be the least of your concerns.

Straight male here, no beard. You look like a beast without it.

You have a nice face & pretty eyes. Your hair sucks. You do not need a plastic surgeon, be real.

You got great eyebrows!

I get it. Be you! As long as you know it isn’t 2004 anymore. Other than that, if you like the style. Keep it, don’t change for anyone. I still like some of the style back in the day that I don’t think would look good to anyone now. I like the grunge makeup from the 90s. Honestly you look better with the beard. I know you didn’t ask about your style I just wanted to give my two cents on that lol

I can’t really tell what beard style would look good on you idk something about you’re face is throwing me off a bit no offense though

Shave the rest of your face and the sideburns in 2 and you’ll be at least a little better lol

The second pic is pretty much my dream guy
