You may have hairy genes - look at your father and other male relatives. If you have hairy genes, there's not much you can do about it in the long run.You may be having an early and fast puberty. If the other signs of puberty are happening also, it's probably that. There can be medical reasons for early puberty, but most likely again it's just your genes. Puberty can be delayed with drugs, but a doctor wouldn't normally do that unless it was really bad.Shaving won't make it grow back faster, but it can itch. You'll probably want to do it on your face from time to time, but I don't know about the rest.It's hard to be different.

There are some rare conditions that cause a lot of testosterone to be produced, but you'd have to go to a doctor about that. Most likely you're just early because of genetics. You could ask your father when he got facial hair.
