Does a hair on my chin mean I’ll have a noticeable goatee soon?

Question:

Does one strand of hair on my chin mean I’ll have a noticeable goatee in 6 months to a year? And does this mean I entered stage 4?

Answer:

You are approaching stage 4, but several factors must align for you to be in stage 4.

Hair follicles develop independently at different times. At first, you’ll notice a few hairs here and there. They will gradually become denser, but it may take a year or two before there are enough hairs to have a decent-looking goatee.
