Answer
Some people just don't grow a lot of facial hair. You are probably just one of them. But shaving a lot does make it grow in thicker. But if you are one of those people who aren't going to have hair, not much is going to work. You should feel a little bit lucky, some men have to shave every day or have major stubble. I can't imagine they enjoy that too much.
Answer
Shaving definately causes the hair to grow in thicker on your beard. My uncle told me years ago that the way he grew a thicker beard was to shave his face in opposite directions each and every time he shaved. He told me to shave from top to bottom, bottom to top, left to right and then right to left.....you get the picture.
I was 12 when he told me this and at that time, I was already pretty hairy!! I did this for weeks before I started noticing a differance. I had a FULLY grown beard by the age of 15 and have had one since.
I am now 39 yrs old, have facial hair like barbed wire....hate shaving....and am considering laser removal.
Answer
Actually, there is nothing that you can do to speed up the process of growing a beard except taking hormones. Which, unless u have a hormone imbalance, would probably not be a good idea.
Many people believe that shaving more often can increase the thickness or your beard, but shaving more does not speed up the process.
Take a look at the hair on your arms. All the hairs are thick at the base and then cone down to a small ending. Shaving causes your hair to be cut off at the base, where the hair is thickest. When the hair grows in the entire hair is as thick as the base, causing an illusion of a thicker beard.
If you cant grow your beard now be patient. Some guys faces are not able to grow a beard until their late twenties or thirties.
