Does body hair really grow back thicker each time you shave it? I hope this is just a myth. It's gotten me worried about shaving my facial hair too much.

SUMMARY
The discussion confirms that shaving body hair does not cause it to grow back thicker. This myth is debunked by scientific evidence, which indicates that hair regrowth is influenced by factors such as genetics and hormonal levels rather than the act of shaving itself. The Mayo Clinic provides authoritative information on this topic, emphasizing that shaving merely cuts hair at the surface and does not affect its thickness or growth rate.
