> I feel a similar way about beards.
For some weird genetic reason, at 30yo, I still can’t grow much facial hair and all of the hair above my lips is blonde. ... It doesn’t bother me much even though beards are nearly universal where I live among men (Texas) and all the men in my family grow full, uniform-colored lumberjack beards.
Do you really care about having a beard? It sounds like you care more about fitting in with other people around you. A beard will never make or break you, forget about it, show your value through something meaningful and people will respect far more than anything that can grow on your face.

I wish I felt the same about balding and hairlines... can’t say that I do. I have always had thin hair and started noticing balding around age 24-25, I’d guess. None of the brothers aged 35-50 have much noticeable balding. Genetically, I guess I got the short end of the stick with regards to hair in my family.
Oh well.
