top answer fmpink. i see you're coming out with some real @rsehole answers. do you practice?

vins684 start shaving as danielwilson suggests, there are minute hairs there even though you don't see them/ feel them, and shaving will actually encourage them to grow faster. it's a bit like picking sweet peas to grow more sweet peas :-) ps. after 15 or 20 years of scraping your chin every morning the novelty wears off so be thankful you don't have to yet!

Shaving will not make anything grow -- hairs are dead tissue, and the follicle beneath cannot "know" what's going on above.  However, stubble may look more obvious than wisps.

 

I only had a little bit of beard when I was 20 -- some of us are just like that.  Eventually it grew perfectly well, and is still gradually spreading now (at 45).  I never have shaved.  I didn't get much chest hair either till I was about 30.  If you look at the faces of men who do shave (even older ones), quite often you can see that their stubble is not over the whole beard area, so it's not at all uncommon even in men of European extraction -- and very common in Far Eastern men.

 

The main thing is to be confident in yourself, and then who cares about a bit of hair here or there?

 

You may have noticed that less-hairy men rarely go bald, so there is an up-side.

 

If you are that worried, check with your GP.
