Back on topic, I’ve only ever been able to grow a decent goatee with some struggle side burns.

During this lockdown though with no barber, my facial hair is now growing out fully. Who knew I could actually grow a full beard if I just stopped cutting it for a while? :ehh:

There’s a lot of doubters in this thread. June 20th will make it two months since I started. I’ll take a progress picture on Saturday

It definitely works but how good your results are still seem to depend on genetics.

I wouldn’t know because I don’t got no elders with beards. Most my father ever had is a goatee, but they all Ghanaian so it might be cultural to keep they face shaved

Also these posters talking bout side effects, it’s nothing. :comeon: Worst I experienced was an itchy face the first week or two. I don’t even have to apply the product everyday if I happen to be going to a function. Quarantine was the best time to get started

Had to stop taking that sh*t; I was having chest pains.:mjcry:

Told my doctor about it, and he was like, "you know that doesn't really work, right?" :heh:

Looks like I'm stuck with the patchy beard :mjcry:

Minoxidil got me from Anthony Hamilton to Kyrie.

I been off it for a minute since I got pretty decent beard coverage. My connectors can be a bit stronger though my start reapply to make them thicker.

That shyt increases estrogen :mjlol:

Get cancer believing a lie brahs

That shyt won't make hair on your face grow

shyt won't make new hair grow on your head either and only slightly helps the center bald spots on heads and does nothing for hair lines :mjlol:
Nothing but wrong info. You a perpetual clown.

It does grow hair on the face and scalp but only the facial here is permanent

Notes for anyone reading:
  • Takes over two weeks to see any new hairs
  • Can’t apply Minoxidil on moisturized skin, so it’s itchy as hell for those four hours
  • Can’t have Minoxidil on your face at a function, has a white residue when dried up :dame: Better wash that shyt off
  • I put the same oils I use in my hair (castor oil, coconut oil) on my jaw after I wash the product off

As someone who has been using it for a year and a half here is my advice:

  1. Don’t expect to see any significant gains for a minimum of six months, so you have to be committed
  2. Apply it right before you go to sleep so you don’t have to worry about having a dry face in public. Apply at night, moisturize in the morning when you wake up...this is a good 1x a day method.
  3. If you apply at night you don’t have to wash it out so you get the maximum effect every application
  4. As your hair grows apply slightly more than 1ml as your hair will absorb some of the minoxidil.
  5. Don’t start of with 2x day application.
  6. If you’re getting headaches or rapid heart beating it’s not in your head it’s the juice!
