Question 1

at what age do men start growing facial hair?

Accepted Answer

Puberty: When a male starts to produce testosterone, then facial hair as well as hair over other parts of the body grow.  This is a testosterone mediated process and even occurs in women. Yes women make testesterone as well but not as much as men and these are known as secondary sexual characteristics of men and women.

Question 2

at what age do men typically grow facial hair?

Accepted Answer

Facial hair: At the time of puberty, age range 11 - 15 years.

Question 3

do all men grow facial hair or some never have it?

Accepted Answer

99% have it: In general, most men grow facial hair. The density varies greatly but by-in-large, men grow facial hair.

Question 4

at what age men usually have full body and facial hair?

Accepted Answer

JUST PAST PUBERTY: Just passed puberty men have full body and facial hair, it starts at puberty and continues after that.

Question 5

does mega men performance and vitality help with facial hair?

Accepted Answer

No: It's gimmicky vitamins targeting gym types. How much or little beard you have is a function of your genes. Embrace what Mother Nature gave you. A thin-bearded man usually has the smooth chest that most women and most male fitness-types seem to prefer, and usually doesn't have any baldness later in life.

Question 6

why do men have facial hair, and women don't? what causes this?

Accepted Answer

Genetics: Facial hair growth is one of the secondary sexual characteristics males encounter when they mature, as is breast development in women. It is largely a result of the specific biologic differences between men and women. For men, the facial hair is sensitive to the effects of increased testosterone which makes it grow and thicken.

Question 7

what is a good? facial hair remover for men?

Accepted Answer

Vaniqa: This is a prescription cream which can help to thin out hair along the beard or face area.  Chemical depilatories can be somewhat irritating to apply to the face.

Question 8

hi, i'm almost 17 yrs old male, i'm 5ft 7.6inheight and 56.1 weight but i don't have facial hair, can i grow up more? and till what age do men grow up

Accepted Answer

Don't rush: Wait couple of years you will get facial hair  , few more years later you will be tired it ,  to shave

Question 9

wondering why some men can not grow chest hair and facial hair?

Accepted Answer

Genetics: About 5% of men never grow chest hair and have relatively thin beards. Many (maybe most) women in the us say they prefer this, and such guys are the least likely to get male pattern baldness. Paul newman had no chest hair and was the first hollywood man with really good muscle definition to go shirtless in the movies. It didn't bother him. Enjoy who you are.

Question 10

how can men make their facial hair grow longer and faster? any natural medicines that can be used?

Accepted Answer

Vitamins: I don't believe there is much you can do to make facial hair grow faster or longer. How much and how fast your facial hair grows is a genetic trade and you can't change it. Obviously, however, if you are having a problem in this area, you may need to have your doctor run some tests, such as thyroid studies or even hormonal studies, such as testosterone levels, etc.
