Thank you so much for posting this!! I was so worried that I was just going to have this for life now. I had been maintaining a healthy beard for a few years until a few months ago when a bald spot started growing on my chin. I was devastated. (still kinda am)

Hi all, recently I also had the same problem. I also read all these comments and left it. I went to a skin doctor for another issue and that time I have shown that patches to the doctor. He told me that such patches come when the anti agents in our body act on our skin instead of bacteria and germs. He gave me some injections (with the needle which is used for injecting insulin) To my surprise I found hair growth after 3 weeks. Better visit a doctor then reading the comments and waiting for the time it gets cured..

I have bald patches in the left and right side of my jaw. The right side grows a little more hair than the left. Is this normal? Will I be able to grow a full beard? I’m only 18.

I am 28, and I have always grown a goatee style beard. I was actually challenged to a ‘beard battle’ on the first of April for 4 weeks (the winner with the fullest beard gets very drunk off the losers). I would recommend this to anyone who is attempting to grow a beard, as in my life time I have never had any hair growth on my cheeks (hence keeping the goatee). Between the five ‘warriors’ to take part no one of us had ever grown a full beard and none of us we thought were capable of doing so either. Today is the final day and in the past four weeks alone I have developed a VERY healthy amount of hair on my cheeks which I have quite literally watched turn from thin blonde baby hair to much thicker darker growth. My father and my brothers have are also unable to grow a full beard, so I had pretty much resigned my self to buying a lot of alcohol for the winner. I am amazed at the results of just letting my hair grow for an extended period of time, I think that everyone involved is very surprised at the amount of coverage that we have all received due to our little game, whether it is a mix of testosterone from the competition or the new found confidence in our almost full beards, we have all decided that this was the best thing any of us had done as a group, because as individuals we had long thought about ‘trying’ to grow full beards but have always been put off by the idea of not being able to, but when we added the competitive element between a small number of guys at the office there was a definite motivation to keep going and growing.
All in all I would recommend this to any one who wants to grow, as it has helped all 5 of us develop much better coverage. It has also enabled us to see how much beards suit us all and I am proud to announce the bearding community has just gained 5 new members.
So remember if in doubt challenge some colleagues or friends to a beard battle, at least four weeks as we all know that is the minimum time investment needed for any beard, you won’t have more fun.
