If it helps, I can’t stop growing a thick bushy beard, but it gets itchy, and the individual hairs are so coarse it’s like steel wool. Rasps the skin off my lips if I’m a day late in trimming.
And now in my early 40s it’s growing out my nose and ears too (and I can see the first signs of those crazy eyebrow beards old men get). Sometimes a loose nose hair gets up between by nose and my throat, and it’s like flossing your sinuses with a cheese wire.
I got the best of both worlds. Incredibly thick hair, but just sparse, with cheeks largely uncovered and full beard at neck. I use real razor blades, because they’re the onyl thing that cuts without nicking me, but they still tug like shit because they’re so thick.
