Okay two more and then you can go with whatever ya want.
"In an article titled 'On beards, no beards, and other hairy problems' in the April 1972 issue of Science Digest, Dr. Herbert Mescon, then professor and chairman of the department of dermatology at Boston University was quoted as saying: 'There are a number of myths about shaving. It is not true that shaving makes whiskers darker or coarser or grow faster.'"
Writing in the Journal of the American Medical Association, Dr. Howard T. Behrman says shaving has no permanent effect on the rate of hair growth.
