I'm almost 20 and can't grow facial hair.

This summer I am taking an outdoors job out in Alberta and was really hoping to grow a beard. I am turning 20 in 4 months and aside from a slim mustache and a 5' shadow my facial hair leaves much to be desired.. Now aside from a few cases of slander of of our Conservative leader, it is unknown to me what pagan gods I've offended to deserve such a cruel fate. Is there light at the end of the tunnel? I'm feeling pretty damn down.

I was the same way. Then I got a job where I had to shave every single day, no matter what. It started growing in fuller and fuller.
So just shave more. And wait.

I'm 28 and can barely grow facial hair. I get a neck beard and some scraggely scruff on my face that looks awful after a few days.

The same thing happened to me last summer. Basically, just be patient.

High five for tree planting. It's somewhere around prince George, never done tree planting before but I figure 4 months of exercise can't hurt. Any tips/warnings?

I'm almost 23 and my 18 year old brother has more facial hair than me. Can't say it bothers me though...

It's always five o'clock in Shepardsville.

I met a traveller from a hirsute land
Who said: "A vast and chisled chin of stone
Stands in the desert. Near it on the sand,
Half sunk, a hairless visage lies, whose frown
And naked lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
`My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings:
Look on my face, ye hairy, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal maw, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away".

I am 20 and I can't grow facial hair and it is a good thing cause I would not want to shave all the time and if I did have a mustache or something it would look fake cause I look years younger than I am (which is something I do not like cause the ladies think I am a high school kid despite the way I dress and car I drive).
