After puberty, the endocrine system produces more androgens, turning thin, fine hairs into mature hairs. The mature (or terminal) hairs grow long and intertwine with each other, giving the beard a darker appearance. While the actual color of your beard hairs may not change, your beard will appear darker.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read on to discover the changes your beard will undergo as it grows.
