Can shaving habits affect facial hair growth?

Some people say shaving hair can bring it back thicker. Others think letting it grow untampered is the best.Can shaving habits affect facial hair growth?
Shaving does not make your hair grow thicker, but it may make it appear thicker. Shaving cannot damage your hair follicle because a razor cannot go under your skin where the follicle is.. I dont know why a cosmetologist suggested either of these.





When your hair grows from the follicle it is tapered on the end. When you shave it you just made the end blunt so it feels coarser than it did, giving the illusion that it is thicker. However, as it grows, the end will become tapered again because of it rubbing against things like your pillow, and even from the wind. Elements wear it down and it becomes softer again because it is not blunt.





You can wreck your follicles, but definetly not by shaving. Only by waxing, tweezing, or permanent hair removal. You actually have to go in and zap it with a laser to kill it, or you have to repeatedly pull the hair out of the follicle as it grows. This second process takes years to cause damage to the follicle.





Shaving your hair is the same as cutting your hair, you are just cutting it shorter.Can shaving habits affect facial hair growth?
yes. it will make the hair look thicker when it grows again.
Shaving does make the hair grow back thicker. If you're talking about the face,eventually shaving might damage the hair folicles,causing it not to grow,or not to grow correctly in a particular area.
It depends on how you look w/ facial hair. But the fact is that your hair can't grow back thicker, it grows back prickly and darker which makes the illusion of being thicker.
By shaving any hair, it causes stimulation which in turn causes faster growth. Sometimes, the stimulation will cause blocked folicles to become free causing it to seem like the hair is growing in thicker. So, continue to shave facial hair and it will grow much faster and maybe a little thicker.
Not sure what you mean.. assuming that you shave every day.. then yes, in most cases, hair will grow back stronger but not necessarily thicker.
