Someone please correct me if I'm wrong here, but I am fairly confident that beard frequencies occur by a percentage of the whole. In other words, a frequency of 10 would be 10% only if all the frequencies together added up to 100. If they all added up to 200, 10 would mean 10/200, which equals 5%.

So, for your scenario, if you want the 23 beards to occur at an equal rate, and have 50% with no beards, you could set each beard to 10 and no beard to 230 (or all beards to 5 and no beard to 115, etc.).
