After shaving to preferred length, arm hair will now update appropriately.
Fixed in Patch 1.114.46/2.12

Coming in to say that I've also had this issue. I do use mods/CC but I removed them all then created multiple different save files for testing purposes and still facial hair wouldn't grow even after playing a few weeks in the sims world, I've repaired the game multiple times, deleted localthumbcache, and exhausted every other solution I could think of. Also I've gone into CAS multiple times to ensure that the option is enabled. It still doesn't work for me.
@crinrictI have tried to test this and I think this may be the (or one of the) problems:
If you shave a beard or a body part completely and then save & quit the game and reload it, your set hair length preference is gone. The "naked" state is the new preference instead. And though hair growth remains enabled, the hair doesn't grow back.
The problem does not happen if you shave hair just back to the preferred length.
One general reason behind this may be that hair doesn't grow from hairless body parts because the game needs a hairstyle preference that can be expanded. But that's complete speculation.
I will do further testing, this feature is very confused.
