Why does it grow back

I'm not trans but I hate this as well 😭 my beard grows uneven so I can't even leave it on if I wanted to
Meanwhile my hairline loses land faster than the netherlands would if they didn't build dams
- Oh damn hitting close to home today
- Now this is relatable
- Dikes, not dams :) Though I guess we also have dams?
  Anyway, fuck facial hair.
  
  I've only lived here for a few months still learning, thanks for the correction I'm learning!
  
  Oh wow, I didn't know that. Welcome!
  How are you finding it so far?
  I hope you'll have a good time living here :)
  
  Moved from just over the border (Belgium) so not a huuuuge change in life but liking it here! Actually signing tomorrow to buy an appartement so here to stay :p
  The only thing I got a heart attack about was my health insurance costs being about 14x higher than Belgium but more net salary made up for it xD
  
  That’s not much of a culture shock, that’s for sure :) Still, I hope you’ll enjoy your new home.
  And yes, health insurance isn’t cheap. I mean it isn’t US levels, but I wouldn’t mind if it was a bit cheaper :)
  
  Its mostly the little language differences (je/jij instead of ge/gij is my most painful one) but that's minimal haha
  Thanks! We'll see how it goes in the long run I guess, no plans on returning anytime soon tho
  Yeahh, a high monthly cost + a deductible is quite insane
- I'm lucky I don't have the hair thinning problem. The beard sucks though, I always hated having a beard. It's one of the first signs looking back that I wasn't anywhere near as cis as I thought I was.
  
  For me, if my beard just grew alright I'd keep it but it grows so uneven that its basically just impossible ;-;
  
  It’s partially the itchiness, but also allergy season that keeps me from having a beard. Too hard to blow your nose with one unless you want to look like Abe Lincoln.
  Edit: trout? Wtf autocorrect
  
  Totally understandable! The faster growing / thicker part of my beard also tends to be a bit itchy if I let it grow for too long (sometimes I have hope it'll finally look good ok) but not that bad that I would shave it because of that so for me its luckily not that huge of an issue.
