Is exfolicating the face with white sugar hinder the beard growth or due to exfolicating it is good for the beard growth ??? also how many times a week is good i mean exfolicating with whit sugar?

Exfoliation of the face with any compound removes the top few dead skin layers and improves the brightness and appearance of skin. It does not in any way affect the hair follicles which are deep within the skin. Beard growth is a byproduct of puberty and is controlled by the bodies natural hormones. Beard growth peaks between the ages of 18-24.
