Quote from: AJarrah on September 26, 2012, 04:59:45 PMI started shaving in 6th grade, I know everyone believes that you can't grow facial hair just by shaving, but I really am convinced that's what made it happen.
Quote from: anibioman on September 26, 2012, 05:54:27 PM thats pretty sick that you had a pre T beard i dont think shaving made it happen as shaving just gives your hairs blunt ends as aposed to tapered ones maybe you just have really high natural T like me. still i couldn't grow jack except three tiny brown mustache hairs and some thick, vellus, peach fuzz in the side burn area, i still cant grow anything decent but it runs in the family. btw the beard in my avatar ifs fake.
Quote from: Andy8715 on September 27, 2012, 01:47:28 AMIt's true, shaving doesn't make you grow hair. Odds are you just had an unnaturally high T level. Because you shaved every day, you couldn't see the hair growing and slowly spreading. As you age any hair you have does naturally grow and cover more area.

Sure, you'll notice little things bit by bit; voice, facial hair, the bloody fairy making her escape. But it's going to take time :3 Just be patient with it,And if several more months pass and you don't see any changes, have a chat with your doc
Quote from: Rita on September 27, 2012, 01:51:58 AMYea, if it did most of us would be in trouble right now xDWaxing can cause that kind of reaction though. Any attack, especially if it causes you to bleed can result in a little hair growth. Doubt anything significant but food for thought To prove that theory I got my arms waxed, my left arm took a beating and my right arm got away lucky. My right arm atm is super thinned now now from hormones, while my left arm has been more resilient to change.
Quote from: AJarrah on September 27, 2012, 09:49:13 AMWell, I chemical burned my face with Nair once thinking that would get rid of the little bit of facial hair I was growing back in middle school/high school...that definitely made me bleed. Haha. Shortly after I discovered they make Nair for faces....lesson learned
Quote from: Rita on September 27, 2012, 01:38:05 PMYea, my mom saw I bought nair this one time she taught me how to use it so I didn't hurt myself xD Oh yea nair burns I can only imagine your upper lip omg that would hurt so much. For some reason you can poke it, pinch it, kiss it, or dip it in BBQ but once you sting it its like omg WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME xD
