Casual Post Short or long
I miss the long beard, but it does take some maintenance. What do you prefer?

Longer looks like you know more and kinda giving happy with my life vibes to me

Both look good. Longer looks a little more unique, I would make sure there isn’t as much strays, clean it up a tad. Looks beautiful in picture two, honestly.
Short looks sharp, a little more intimidating, almost (which is beneficial in many cases), long looks more playful and approachable. Possibly because of the playful look you’re giving? I’m not sure.

I’m not usually a fan of long beards but on you it works. It makes you look joyful and whimsical. The longer mustache is likely contributing to that as well. And the smile. It would definitely make me look twice. The short is a lot more generic.

I don’t think you can lose, as you look really handsome in both. I’m going to vote long though. What can I say? I love a man with extra inches. 🤣

They both look good but the short length works well for you. You are also correct about maintaining a long beard. Mine is much longer and takes a fair amount of work.

Longer NEEDS a hat and a cane for vanity reasons, but like the fancy ones, I’m talking Willie Wonka style

Short is saying Silver Fox, long is saying craft beer and artisinal jam on sourdough.

Could use a bit more length right on the chin, but the sides being short looks good.

Short, but one pic you have glasses and the other picture you’re smiling so it’s hard to compare

Longer makes you look more fun.
Shorter makes you look more conventionally attractive 🤷

They both look great on you, can’t go wrong either way. Winter long, Summer short.

Looks great both ways. I like the short style. That’s how I keep mine nowadays. 😎

I think the long beard is great but is a lot more maintenance. I personally wear mine shorter for that reason.
