It is true to a point. The more you shave any hair on your body like on your face it will come back thicker and more full. I don't know if it will grow faster or not. My experience it kinda does but not really.

Some people say yes, some say no. Seems like there is no real answer.

Dude if that were true all adult men would have faces like Sasquatch. It's a myth.

I didn't say it happens to everyone. Everyone is different when it comes to hair and how it grows.

Yup, everyone is different, but shaving doesn't do that. Read this (http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/hair-removal/an00638) from the Mayo Clinic.

It's an illusion that it grows back thicker, darker, faster, etc...

It's true, but not. It all depends on the person. It affects everyone differently. For some people it's true and for other's it's not.

that is a perfect example of a false urban legend. It is no different than thinking that coffee will make an intoxicated person sober.

Shaving yes. Trimming no

Shaving my face, yes it grows back faster but I've tested my body hair by shaving some of my arm hair (other people don't see) and it seems to grow a tiny bit thicker but takes WEEKS to fully grow back.
