Obviously, the female Eldar were exempt from this rule. It only applied to the men. Naturally there were a few exceptions to the beards-growing-in-the-third-stage rule, like Mahtan, but since no one else (besides him and Cirdan) lived into their third stage, we can't really tell whether it's a tried-and-true thing. They all got themselves killed (unlike these two, who had brains!)
