In all cultures of the world, a beard was a sign of strength, wisdom and maturity. The beard was considered not only a man's possession, but also a symbolic confirmation of belonging to the Divine Family - it meant that the beard bearer was a descendant of the Ancient Heavenly Gods.
Today it is rare to see men who wear a beard. And there are many reasons for this - some because of hygiene, the second - because his companion does not like him, the third simply does not grow a beard.
But really, why is not the beard growing in some representatives of the stronger sex?
The main reason lies in the lack of nutrients in the body, as well as the presence of internal diseases and damage to hair follicles.
Equally important is age. Until some time, the hormonal system of a young man is not located to activate the growth of a beard. Sometimes this is facilitated by uneven puberty or its delay. Unfortunately, sometimes a beard does not grow because the body has a disturbed functioning of sex hormones. Such a deviation may be accompanied by some delays or violations of the proportions of development - high parents may have a short son who does not grow up to their level of growth. If such deviations are detected in a timely manner, then they can be treated well, without bringing negative consequences.
The next reason why a beard does not grow may be a genetic predisposition. Of course, all boys cannot be the same by nature - some begin daily shaving at the age of fourteen, but for some such a procedure remains unknown until twenty-five. Much also depends on belonging to certain nationalities - southern men are naturally predisposed to a fairly early and thick hair covering of the chin. For blond northern men, the hair on the beard does not grow for quite a long time, they begin to shave regularly at a fairly respectable age and cannot boast of a thick full beard, contrary to the popular image of the ancient bearded Viking.
In addition, the beard does not grow due to improper shaving. It happens that the wrong approach to the procedure destroys the roots and structure of the hair, making their subsequent growth difficult.
If the beard does not grow, what to do in this case? For full-fledged hair growth, the following components are needed - beta-carotene and zinc, calcium and iodine, magnesium and silicon, potassium, and manganese.
Therefore, to obtain a spectacular beard, cheese, cottage cheese, fruits, vegetables, nuts, oats and legumes are needed in the diet.
In addition, to improve growth, you can make various masks that contribute to the nutrition of hair follicles. It can be burdock oil, which is by far the most effective hair growth product.
Inadequate physical activity can also affect hair growth, so you should play sports or other physical activities.
Of course, the correct washing of hair is of no small importance for hair growth on the beard. So that they are thick and healthy, shampoos should be discarded, since they do not stimulate hair follicles.
It is best to take advantage of old, proven over the centuries methods - this is the use of mustard powder or egg yolk. To do this, beat the yolks and apply evenly to wet hair and distribute. At the same time, it is worth knowing that you need to wash off the yolk gradually. And, of course, it is best to use household soap, since it is natural and harmless.
After such a procedure, it would be nice to rinse the hair on the beard with a decoction of chamomile or nettle.
The final step is combing the beard. It is this process that improves blood circulation and nourishes the hair well, stimulating their growth.
