Beard growth with 17 year old

Hi Valentino, If I had the answer for making hair grow I would be a billionaire!!! ;-) XD All the balding men and women in the world would be lining up outside my door! When you are dealing with hair on the body - either too much or not enough - this comes from genetics, so take a look at your father, but more importantly take a look at the men in your mothers family! IF they are hairy, it wont take you too much time at all, IF they aren't you will probably end up with a patchy nightmare! When you have a lot of body hair, it is FAR easier to grow a beard then someone that is hairless! Ingesting Biotin and having a protein filled diet CAN help with the fullness and health of the hair! Also keeping your face clean - because germs and bacteria can stunt hair growth! Also know that you still have another 2 years to finish puberty, so it might take awhile yet for you to complete your mission! Does this help you? IF you find the secret for creating hair to grow in places it didn't before, let me know - I need to pay a mortgage!!!! ;-) XD XD Good luck and health honey!

cheers and my dad does have allot of facial hair if he grows it ha ha

but yh i suppose ill have to play the waiting game!
and i didnt realy think about there bein 2 years left of puberty.

Good Point!

Actually the hair gene is more from your moms side! So take a look at your maternal granddad or uncles etc.! That will be the indicator! Also I don't know if you have read the other post I left for you, but increase your levels of Omega oils - this will help with your skin health and thus hair health!

my dad had dark hair, out of 5 only one had dark, rest were blonder from mother's side. Dark was my older sister, it's a roll of the dice that we can't do anything about, but shave everyday instead of trying to let it grow, you may notice when it gets to the point to try a beard. If you have light hair, you can use beard and moustache color. But you will need to do eyebrows too for it to not be real obvious, and only a shade darker, but wouldn't rush anything, it will get to where it should be by mid twenties, try a moustache or and goatee, these areas usually fill in and grow sooner.

You are certainly correct 'bambi27" on saying that hairy men can grow a beard much easier and quicker than many men who are not hairy, however, I have noticed quite a lot of men with good thick beards who are not at all that hairy elsewhere on their body. I do think the first week not shaving at all, even the first 3 days can indicate on how quickly a man can tell how quick his beard can or could grow. I have hairy legs, chest etc, and if I don't shave for only 2 DAYS my face shows the first noticeable signs of a beard. Many other more hairless men would have to sometimes wait as long as 2 WEEKS to get the first indication of how quick or slow their beard growth might be. Not being hairy is a sign that a man probably could not grow a good beard, but not always.

Excellent answer from "bambi27" he is correct that if you are hairy, the better you are of having a good beard, especially if you are a hairy teenager like I was. I could have grown a good beard as early as 15 or 16 but my parents would not have allowed me to do that, I was not the kind of guy to pack up and leave home, especially for not being allowed to grow a beard. Looking around at different men who have beards, as I see that hairy men have the best beards, but not always, I have noticed that several guys who are not all that hairy, say on chest, arms or legs can still have a great beard, but in their case I think they would have had to wait a bit later for the beard to get thick and long, say in their 20's as compared to a man who is naturally hairy all over his body and could have a good beard by 18. For the answer to the original asker "valantion18", I think you are one of the later developers, you could still have a good beard, but not until you are into your 20's rather than in your teens. Good luck
