. . .

The four genetic factors that differentiate most of us from that guy who can look fully bearded in just two weeks are: 1) He has black or very dark brown facial hair. 2) He has a dense follicle pattern; in other words, a lot of individual hairs per square inch. 3) The individual hair shafts are thick; age hurts us there, too, because hair thins as we age. 4) The coverage of hair on his face is pretty complete; no bare patches.
Regrettably for me, my beard is like Keanu Reeves' only worse because my hair is a lighter color. I tried once in my 20s and again after I retired. Both times I let it go several months, but both times the result was unsatisfactory so I've had to content myself with a small mustache.

Re: Bearding

I tried. It was thin and patchy. I just looked scruffy and bowed to reality. I can't grow a decent beard.
