How can grow a thick beard ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's genetic: A few men have tried painting their faces with rogaine (minoxidil) but the results haven't been altogether salutary. Around 5% of men have no chest hair and very little facial hair, and if you are not genetically programmed to have a thick beard and a lot of body hair, you can't change this. Most women in the usa seem to prefer a smoother, thin-bearded man, & if you're fit, lean, muscular, this is all moot.
