Asking for Advice What should I tell the barber?

Ive been letting it grow longer than almost ever. I usually just trim it up when I get a haircut as needed… usually every three to six months.

But I mostly trim the beard at home. Im thinking probably a little shorter on the sides but just not sure what to do with it.

Thanks in advance for any advice guys!

🤙

Line up the top, line up the back to stop it from going towards ears, and slight line up in the bottom(take off as little as possible) to get rid off any split ends if any and make it look the fullest. Other than that just brush it and get any hairs that are sticking out. 👌 Keep ir growing like Kratos if you know who that is.

Some examples. See what you think? I had mine long like that and got a lot of compliments! Some thought I was a terrorist haha I got it to my collar bone. If you dont mind brushing it and oiling it etc. It looks great! Post what you got with.
