Facial Hair trouble?

Question

I have been letting my facial hair grow out in order to get a bit of a beard, however the longer it gets the more painful it gets. Its not just scratchy, but actually painful. Is this normal? Has anybody else experienced this? Is there anything I can do to relieve it or am I destined to be beardless...

Answer 1

try to find a barber and get a straight razor shave .  

Answer 2

This is pretty common, because if you have shaved in the past your facial hair becomes sharper, and a bit more rough. As it grows out, and you shave less frequently the hair will become softer again.

Until that happens, I would try using moisturizer, or even hair conditioner to make the hair softer;)

Good luck.
