To have a beard at 15 years old, it's double or nothing: either you like it and you keep it, or you don't have any and you want to grow it at all costs. And it's not just a question of fashion or the fact that "you have hair and your friends don't".

It's mostly a way of being, having a beard, at any age, is something that many men want in their lives.

In this article, we discuss the beard at the age of 15when you are still a teenager and you may or may not want to grow a beard.

Having a beard at 15

Case n°1 : You have a beard and you want to shave it

Whether you have the beginnings of a beard, a fuzz or already have a full beard, you may not want to have one. Indeed, often the beard at 15 years old is not yet well developed and the face is sparse with patches of hair.

Anyway, we'll admit it: it's not very aesthetic and it doesn't even please the girls.

You may also have a real beard, even at age 15. This is often due to high testosterone levels. But again, just because you have a beard as a teenager doesn't mean you want to keep it.

How to shave your beard at 15?

I advise you to delay shaving your beard as long as possible during adolescence. The first shaves are often synonymous with irritation because the skin is not used to being attacked with a razor.

If you really want to shave your beard:

  1. Choose a time when you have time because the first shave can be complicated
  2. Prepare your skin well: wash your face with warm water to remove as much dead skin and oil as possible. This will allow your pores to open and the hair will be less hard.
  3. Let's get to shaving! Get a new razor and stretch the areas of your face to make them smoother and flatter.
  4. Shave in the direction of the hair at first, then against the grain for a clean result.
  5. Once finished, rinse your face with cold water this time and pat dry with a dry towel. Don't rub: it could irritate your skin. You can also use a mini hairdryer, adapted to your beard.
  6. Use a gel aftershave or foam
  7. Take care of your skin with beard oils.

Beard at 15 years old

Case 2: You don't have a beard and you want to grow it

To begin with, remember that you are still a teenager and a young boy. If you don't have a beard yet or that a few hairs are fighting a duel on your cheeks, it's completely normal! Your 15 year old body is not yet "ready" to have a beard. Your puberty is still developing, so to speak!

However, you can "help" it by following a few good practices, which will also be good for your overall health:

  1. Eat a healthy and balanced diet (avoid kebabs between noon and two)
  2. Hydrate yourself properly, and with water please (alcohol is banned, especially at 15 years old and sodas should be limited)
  3. Play sports! Physical activity raises testosterone levels, so you might as well tell you that it's pretty much mandatory. Plus, girls love athletic guys 😉
  4. Take care of your face by cleansing it frequently and by using oils that grow beards

In any case, keep in mind that having a beard at 15 is not given to all teenagers, and if you don't have one yet... It's totally normal!

Don't panic, you'll probably get some in the next few years, and if it doesn't happen or your hair growth is slow, there are solutions.

But don't try all the "tips" you see on the web, as you might expect, many of them are questionable.
For example, shaving your beard will not make it grow faster, contrary to what you read on the Internet.

Either way: Take care of your face and beard

Whether you want to have a beard or not, it is important to have a good take care of your face and beard. Your skin and hair need to be pampered to be in shape, just like everything else!

To do this, I recommend:

  1. Wash your face and beard frequently
  2. To go without cream from time to time (ask your mother for advice)
  3. To use beard oils
  4. From eat well and to do sports, it is very important for your overall health

The beard of a teenager at 15 years old, do we grow it or do we shave it?

During this article, we have seen the two major cases for which you arrived here:

Any more questions?

Not having a beard at age 15 is pretty normal. In general, you will have only a small nascent fuzz just waiting to grow! To help your beard grow, you need to take care of your face and your skin.

Not having a beard at 15 or having only a little fuzz is totally normal! You are in the middle of puberty and your body is working to give strength to your hair... Be patient!

Although I would advise you to wait as long as possible before shaving the fuzz, you can do it. Take your precautions and be prepared to do it right!

My favorite choice is the Philips OneBlade that combines ease of shaving with precision. Plus, this razor will serve you for years: it's high quality and suitable for thicker beards.
