If you don't have a full beard by the time you're 23 it's pretty much over.
Or you can try spreading minox on your face and dermarolling.
That's what I thought. It did get better from 23 to 27, but it's been stuck since then. I won't do the chemistry stuff, also I'm not puncturing my face, thank you though, I know it's probably the only thing that works.
peppermint essential oil (5%) mixed with nivea soft or a carrier oil like castor oil
better to use nivea soft because then you can add LCLT (2%)
all non chemical. unless you consider the nivea soft moisturizer chemical (which it is honestly).

It's all up to genetics. The trick isn't how much facial hair can you grow, but how you keep it. I haven't trimmed my beard in like 2 or 3 months and it looks like shit rn, but the last time I fully shaved was a few weeks before COVID
Just fricking shave. The only people who look better with a beard are people who have very thick facial hair and horrible jaw/chin. Why are millenial homosexuals so obsessed with shitty beards? And you make fun of us zoomers for having broccoli hair lmao. Is it because you can't afford razors after having spent all your money on coffees and Nintendos and other useless shit?
Its a masculine trait. Generally you need to balance your appearance and the anima/animus otherwise you get some weird as psychological manifestations like being an upitty little b***h. People who are desperate for a beard might perceive themself as too physically feminine. I have a 7mm beard but I have long hair. Theres no way im clean shaving if my hair is this length

First step - leave that shit. Dont shave or cut anything for like 3 months. If you think you are looking like shit - thats normal and that's a price you need to pay. After that, cut hair only from the sides of your face and on your neck. Or go to a good barber and tell him to leave the length an only tidy it up.
Good beard shold be aged, it won't just appear overnight.
Just shave the sides or keep them short between 5 o' clock shadow and scruff.
Grow the goatee out, cutting it into a shape that keeps your chin profile realistic and square, or ends at a point like a villain.
Then just trim the mustache with scissors making sure it's long enough on the sides to connect back to the bear. . . or to twirl up like a man about to tie a b***h to the railroad tracks, if you opted for the villain beard route.
There's one problem with peppermint and it's that peppermint blocks androgens and is terrible for testosterone. You should never drink peppermint tea or anything like that. Now these things can be very complex, who knows, but I choose to avoid it. I put on minoxidil for over 2 years and it brought me from zero to a nice bit of stubble which I am happy with. I couldn't really grow a full beard with it still I'm afraid. Keep in mind I was over 30 when I first applied it and you could literally count the hairs on my cheeks. It definitely works really well.
But something else odd happened with minoxidil is my acne breakouts and pre-acne sort of blemishes completely disappeared. I thought this might be as I was getting older and leaving acne behind, but no when I go off it only takes a bit of time before I have some awful pimple breaks out again - never on minoxidil. I think it's due to the denatured alcohol in it which helps absoption. Supposedly it "ages" your skin, but also apparently it's used a lot in cosmetics, it can't be that bad, though the quantity used may be a concern. I've been trying to figure out any other kind of antibacterial I might use, and no facial washes or just wash your face or avoid certain foods don't work. But in the meantime if I need to look good I'm applying minoxidil again.
you look like a redneck caveman
Thank you man.

Plus minoxidil? I've used it for a couple months and all I got was a goatee. I've stopped because it apparently ages your skin.

What should you do with sparse cheeks?
i like having a mustache but should i try a goatee
literally name one person who looks good with a goatee
Robert Down Jr. He prob looks better with it than you with full beard.
>inb4 no
only replies with faces attached will be worth their salt
Imagine not being able to grow a beard KEK
Might as well be a troony
Go for max on the mustache and goatee. Get some styling wax in there and you’ll look real good
I think once heard something about smearing your face every day for a while with minoxidil being helpful.

With those patchy cheeks he's doomed. Shaved or stubble
t. also patchy cheeks
This dude didn't have a presentable beard until he was around 40 years old. Even now he has some patches underneath.
hop on test, don't be a homosexual. you will grow so much hair you'll need to shave twice a day.

>Don't shave lmao....
Im 8 month without a shave and Im questioning my motives at this point.
