Hairy Situations: Too Much, Too Little & Shaving / Question
Published: May 2, 2002

Dear TeenHealthFX,

I am 15 years old and I only have to shave every few weeks. How can I make my facial hair grow faster?

Dear Facial Hair Grow Faster,

 

There is nothing you can do but wait. Facial hair is often the last change that accompanies puberty. Some of your friends may have more facial hair simply because their biological clocks are ticking faster. In the end, your genes will determine how often you will have to shave.

As a note, ten years from now you may wish you only had to shave every few weeks.
