If I had to choose head hair vs full beard, I'd keep my hair.

I was clean shaven till like 24 then said fukk it. Head hair grew like crazy and literally now in my early 30 my beard just now looking like....something....mostly I'm just lazy.

I don't really have the time or patience to grow a full beard before I end up shaving it off because it gets too itchy.

I've definitely had the full beard before but that's so much maintenance keeping the skin under the beard moisturized keeping it nice and toned in trim and everything else. I'm Nigerian so my hair is kind of a bit more coarser

i always assumed it was because of razor bumps and ingrowns

for black men especially, my pops used to always be complaining about that shyt when he shaved
Yep.
Thats me and my pops would have the same issue.

Dealing with shaving bumps suck. That's why I'm more partial to electric razors than using a straight razor and shaving cream.
