I'm 50 years old and still can't grow a decent batch of beak fuzz.
I hate you guys!

I'm biased but I think facial hair especially a full beard with shaved head is a winning combo. Send more photos as it grows.

Hey, we have to start somewhere, right? That looks good for a starter beard.

well, a few more days have passed so i figured id take another picture. got a call today about a job interview in a kitchen, which means i may have to shave it off again. idk, im debating on still keeping it until i know if i have the job or not but it still doesnt look good to show up to an interview unshaven. anyways, id love some feedback on that subject. should i shave it? its for a food industry job, and its always best to be clean shaven in them environments....

It looks like it is coming in nicely, Jackal.
As far as the interview, my opinion is that as long as the beard is neatly trimmed and defined (in other words, the cheeks and neck are shaved), you will not look unshaven. Good luck! -

It may be different in the US but in Australia a number of the top chefs have beards - usually nicely trimmed - and no one worries. Men (and women) working in kitchens often wear a capor covering to contain their hair so I can't see a beard would be a problem.
Wish you well for the job interview - keep the beard. -

The beard is coming in nicely, but if you really want this job and you think your chances are better if you are clean shaven, I'd shave. You can always start the beard over again.

well guys, i shaved it. and now its back i had my job interview and it didnt work out so i said forget it, and i let it grow back out. its been about a month and a half now and its coming in nicely, except my chin area...not really sure how im gonna handle it, but we will see how it turns out as it comes in i guess. i was originally tempted to shave and forget about it because i was pretty bothered by the chin situation, but i figure ill let it go, and see what happens. the longer it gets, the more right it looks even with my "bald spot on my chin". but anyways, let me know what you guys think....also, for you guys with the full beards and shaved head, how do you go about dealing with your sideburns? im having trouble deciding to keep them horizontal, or shaving them down on an angle so they come to a point at the top of my ear. idk, so many decisions!!!! lol

I thin out the top of the sideburns a little....so I get a natural looking fade....stops it looking like I'm wearing a comedy stick on beard lol
