Anyone else unable to really grow one

Eta

After a month of not shaving my facial hair is maybe a half inch. and even then it grows in patches and there are areas on my face with no hair.... or if it will grow hair it grows a lot slower than the rest of my face

I have heard of tips about shaving it a certain way or doing certain things and letting it grow out to grow a fuller beard

1 guy told me he grows his beard out every year, and shaves it off and it grows back twice as thick the next year

once my hair gets to a certain length on my face, I feel like I start getting acne or little red pimples or something around the hairs, once I shave it off it goes away

the hair on my neck grows thick and nice and even. But on my face it is just patches and some grow faster than others

Haven't been allowed to try for almost the last 22 years.  I will let you know when I retire.

I have hair from the top of my head to the tips of my toes and all points in between.

I could probably grow a decent beard, but the ridicule, shame and embarrassment of the inbetween isn't worth it. I'm 48, FWIW. All of my hair is on my head, and it's a lot. Blago style.

The nuns made me start shaving at 14. I can grow a full, mountain man, style beard in nothing flat. But I just
keep a normal beard.
10/14/2012 12:19:35 PM EDT

Nope.  I'm pretty good at growing a beard.

3 days after shaving I look like a friking hipster. Just wish it would stop growing on my back.

Having a beard is awesome BTW.

I can't grow a mustache, so not shaving for a week makes me look like an Amish farmer or an aspiring Paul Kruger.

Pie or beard are my options.....

From my experience, bald pie mixed with beardtickle from dining at the Y is an advantage to women.

I only really grow one when I'm deployed.  In garrison, I have to keep it trimmed to 2-3 days stubble at the most.

I've got no problem growing one.  Red facial hair, black hair on the top of my head.  I love it.
10/14/2012 1:07:40 PM EDT
[#33]
Nope, no problem for me.  Do it every fall and winter.

Wash your face twice a day with warm soap water. Your pores are clogging up. Helps to prevent ingrowns as well. I don't have this problem but I believe there are many that do. Otherwise you may just have to keep shaving. Some men just don't have the testosterone to get a good beard while others (like me) are cursed with a 5 o'clock shadow... at 9AM.

I grow mybeard out sometimes. You can't just not shave your face you have to shave certain areas usually your neck and like your cheeks to make it look clean and nice and not be a neck beard. If the hair doesn't grow in the right places you shouldn't even do it. Simetimes a goid hair dresser will give you a better idea of how you should trim it. Shaving your neck also helps keep it from being itchy. You also have to shampoo your beard to help keep your skin clear and healthy underneath.

I guess I am rather lucky I am NOT very hairy. I have never had to shave my chest or my back. I have a best friend who is Italian he could get away with shaving his face twice a day and his back and chest a couple times a week probably.

I have noticed that my Italian and Hispanic friends have no problem being able to grow ape like hair.

Growing mine out now, got some grey mixed in with the brown, looks cool to me.   Wife dont like it, but I gave up caring what she likes awhile ago.

Yeah I dont get it.  I have a great Mustache,  Can grow a goatee just fine but the sides just wont fill in.

You could try Rogaine on your mug. I had a co worker with 35 year old baby face who did that with positive results.

Can't have more than a moustache and get a good seal on my mask. It sucks too because I have five o clock shadow by 11:30 and I hate shaving. I look like a kid toucher with just a moustache but can grow a righteous beard in a week.

im in the reserves and can grow a awesome beard in 2-3 weeks then it has to be shaved off
10/14/2012 1:50:02 PM EDT

I'm so jealous of all you guys who can grow awesome beards. I'm cursed with no hair on top of my head or on my face. If I could, I'd have a ZZ Top or Aaron Kauffman beard.

I have cut off my beard twice in my adult life, and grew it right back both times.

I could have a beard in 3 weeks. Too hot in the summer. I still have to trim my lower lip or it drives me nuts.
10/14/2012 1:59:12 PM EDT

I've always had jobs that required me to be clean-shaved. I went without shaving for 3 weeks when I got laid off, just to see if I could grow one. It was patchy and thin for the first two weeks, then filled out. It still looked weak, lol.

Mine grows thick but in colors that are not present anywhere else on my body.  Especially the mustache, and red mustaches when you have no red on your head looks creepy.
