I would say once it no longer has a shape. To put it another way, no part of the beard should be translucent. If the edges aren’t mostly solid/opaque, trim it back until it is.

Are you in HR? If not, then the HR lady needs to frick off. Totally unprofessional for her to bypass your boss like that.

For the professional, white collar types, when is a beard unprofessional for you?


When you look like Captain Lou Albano.

I walk a fine line between ruggedly handsome and borderline homeless. Biggest ROI is shaving the neck every few days.

Beards are always unprofessional. Outlaws are allowed to wear them

Never trust a beard you can see through.

If it looks good, keep it. If it looks bad, trim it until it looks good. If it never looks good, shave it.
