Urban Myth?

Does shaving really increase hair growth? I mean you hear that… get your hair cut and it’ll grown longer, right? In high school my facial hair grew in verrryyy slowly and patchy. So people told me to shave more often and it would grow in thicker and fuller. Well I’m hear to tell you - twenty years later - bull hockey (this is a family-friendly column). The only thing that has changed is that instead of shaving once a week, I shave every other day. And even that only picked up from every third day about 4 years ago. And those patchy spots? Still bald as a baby’s bottom. Very depressing for me there in the 90s when I really wanted to grow a goatee, instead I was stuck with sideburns. But they were kickin’.
