iS THE MYTH THAT IF U SHAVE YOUR FACIAL HAIR IT WILL GROW BACK THICKER TRUE??

Question

and also say y u think what u think

and what about darker and longer?

Answer 1

this is just a myth. shaving will not actually increase the amount of hair follicles. you are born with those. shaving does make hair appear thicker, because when you shave, the hair is cut at a blunt angle, making the hair feel more coarse. waxing pulls it out by the root, so when it grows, the end of the hair is naturally tapered making the hair feel softer and thinner. there are other factors that cause darkening of facial hair. these are a few: medications, age, race, heredity, health.

Answer 2

Its not really thicker, it only seems that way since it was cut a blunt angle, If it were ripped out it would seem less corse and thinner. "seem" because truely it stays the same. It seems darker because of the wide angle. It is a Myth. I grows back just as fast. Some forms waxing may seem like it takes more time to grow back, only becuase shaving only cuts it off at skin level, maybe only in half, some kinds of waxing tear out the entire strand.

Yes it is. It will grow back thicker and coarser. If it was a myth that would mean it wasnt true.

Answer 4

yes, darker and thicker usually. I shave the top of my brows and they even grow back more hideous
