Looking at an embarrassing photo of my dad from the 70s, I should probably have no problem looking like Cousin It or a Wookiee eventually if I want to. . .

I am having trouble coping with the colours. I am okay with getting face hair but it is coming in black from what I can tell. It has caught me very off guard and I have blond head hair. I know genetically my hair will get darker as I age but it is troubling me a lot lately.

This...I'm a red head and finally getting a few terminal facial hairs and they are black...?  Hoping since it's just the beginning they will end up red.

Supposedly "androgenic hair" - the type sprouting during puberty in males, is a different type again from scalp hair or vellus body hair which is why it's often a different color. It's not the same class of hair as the other hair types. Although I do see guys with beards that match up with the rest of their hair... actually see a lot in guys with red hair & beard matched compared to say, blond guys or brown haired guys with beard hair that is the same color.

LOL. I am going calico. I am salt and pepper as far as my head hair but the facial growth is coming in a combination of white, black and RED ?? It will be interesting to see the final results. It seems like my hair growth is popping around, the facial fills in for a week or so, then arm hair sprouts, then it moves to the inner thighs, then back to the chin. Weird, but I never noticed until now that guys get hair growth on the inside of the forearms. How have I gone 50 years and never really noticed that???

Inside of forearm is somewhere I have zero hair. Outside is getting a bit darker as you'd expect on a dark-haired dude, but no signs of any on the inside. I don't recall any guys I know having it on the inside of the forearm... but I guess some people are just more hairy than others.
