    Well I’m 40. I can say ,in general, i seem to be becoming less hairy as I get older.

    Hair only grows on front calf parts of my legs now. None on my toes like it used to. I asked around And my lady friends my age and older say they have experienced that too.

    My guy friends say they are pretty sure they are getting hairier. Apparently ear hair is a thing they struggle with now.

      I’m a 35yo dude and getting hairier and hairier to a point where I feel like my whole face will be covered in beard hair in a decade, it’s ridiculous. Nose and ear hair too, I try to keep up but I keep getting hairs in my ears which itches and tickles and hairs up my nose which is the same. Also very hairy toes, and fingers and top of my feet are getting there, of course armpits, arms and legs are already a lot.
      I’d so much rather not have any of this even though I like my beard.
      I was the least hairy (other than head) dude I knew until my mid 20s, still have thicker head hair than almost everyone I’ve known and met, though it’s already going grey at an increasing speed but still just as thick.
      Beard is odd too as I have every color, texture and amount of curliness that can be. White, blonde, both pale and darker ginger, brown, black, smooth, sandpaper like, straight, wavy, curly, jagged etc.

        That’s interesting about your calico beard. I think I’ve gotten a little more nose hair but not much. No ear hair that I know of. 🤞
