Have you ever tried the minox beard thing?
My facial hair is patchy af. I just want that stubble.
I just started doing minox 5% foam once a day. Maybe up to twice/day later.

mine's also patchy af, what is this technique?
it works but will only grow follicles present. best way to see potential is shine a light on your face in a dark bathroom and look in the mirror to see any white fuzzy hair.
I read somewhere it increases blood flow and allows hairs that are dormant to awaken. Should grow even in smooth patches in that case.
My entire face is covered with white vellus hairs up to my cheek bones and connects with my eyebrows. Been using minox once daily for past 5 months or so. Hoping they go terminal within a year.
you need to hit puberty before you can grow a beard, moron
Low test maybe, see if you are missing any vitamins too.
If youre over 20 and only just getting white vellus hairs after 5 months on minox a respectable beard just isn't going to be an option for you
I have an insane amount of those white hairs on my face's beard area and don't even need a light to see them. Thing is, they've been there for over a year. So I feel like they're never gonna actually become real beard hairs. Current facial hair is super thin.
sirs?
do it 2x a day and dermaroll 3x a week. I made solid beard gains on that
But for how long were you using it? How old were you when you started?
I would not suggest using it in the early 20s, there is usually still some years to develope it naturally.
Good suggestion my beard was not great until about 23 and now at 30 it's full. It keeps becoming more and more too
I'm 26 and mine hasn't improved one bit in the last 6 years fml
Don't minox after 24 hours of dermarolling.
Do you guys think I could pull off a mustache if I grow for longer, or is it too thin or sparse? This was from last year about 3 weeks I think
Anyone can pull off a mustache with the right confidence
Nah there's enough there for a stasch. But....
This is the real question. It is one thing to be able to grow a mustasch, actually pulling it off is another. A mustasch man can be the coolest dude in the room, or a total limp wristed homosexual.
>confidence
Frick. There goes my dreams of being mustachioed
I wanted to but my soul patch Is definitely too sparse
that's pretty good coverage, I think you could pull it off. Give it two months
Go for the guy Fawkes look.
mudslimes get smeared wtih pigfat and then get the rope
come and rope me then Black person
i'm perfectly happy sitting back and watching my tax dollars at work:
Cope harder, muslet
Grow up anon
do people get disgust on guys that grew they beard on minox?
just don't tell them
Yes
Changed my life, even if I had some shit side effects. I absolutely think Id be in a worse spot if not for minox beard. I found out I have Jensen Ackles beard genes (high on cheeks and lined) so it was amazing for me
how long did it take you and do you have to still keep applying it? ive always stopped a few weeks in because of how dry it makes my face
what side effects?
Yes, switch to liquor, add DHT, thank me later
Derma rolling is a good idea too
tfw lumberjack beard but pencil neck
would you trade places with me?
just train your neck moron
How does one do this? Is it the calisthenics one would use to get better at sucking dick?
work traps and the Tyson neck regimen
Follow what this guy says about wrestlers and thick necks. I swear this shit has transformed my neck dramatically
>Drugs to grow a beard
You aren't a man.
the hair goes away after you stop using the minox meaning its not a real solution
This is only true for balding people who stop using it. If your beard hair fully develops it stays
wrong, beard hairs remain if terminal
if you have the hair follices to force into maturity then you'll have a majority of your results within 2 years, most people see substantial results in 6 months
I hear electrolysis works pretty well
>I STARTED TAKING 5% ESTROGEN ONCE DAILY AND I GREW A LITTLE FACIAL HAIR
>MY DICK DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE, I HAVE DEPRESSION, LOW ENERGY, LOW TESTOSTERONE
>BUT AT LEAST I GREW A LITTLE BIT OF HAIR
YASSSS GOY
if you get any of those side effects it was over for you even before it even began. Why is this board so full of losers that get a heart attack if they so much as lick an aspirin?
If your sex drive diminishes even slightly by putting some minox on your face you should have killed yourself a long time ago
Aspirin is the leading cause of liver failure and was proven less effective than placebo
If only you knew how crooked the medical industry is
>the israelites are culling the genetic failures with simple drugs
based
No it's not, thats tylenol you moron. Aspirin has TONS of positive benefits.
>proven less effective than placebo
Way to completely misrepresent the study you gay. I assume you are referring to the Aspree and Ascend studies in which it was tested vs placebo as a source of primary prevention for an initial cardiovascular event in very specific populations for those aged 55-60 and a group with diabetes. In this instance no significant benefit was found vs. Placebo when risks were considered. However, for patients who had already experienced a prior cardiovascular event, Aspirin was shown to have significant impact on prevention. moron.
You’re actually giving that moron too much credit, more likely he was mixing up acetaminophen like he mixed up fin and min
You're doing great. Don't falter and keep going. That myth of "shaving makes it grow thicker" is totally false. It was invented by wives embarrassed by their man's "beards". The only way to get a thick beard is to press on. Do it. Don't listen to them.
Keep going, king. You got this.
You know what else gives you a beard? Time. Unless you're in your mid 20s and still have pubes glued to your face there's no reason to artificially speed up the process with drugs.
estrogen specifically
finasteride and minox are both brand name estrogen supplements
The most common side effects are a loss of sex drive, penis not working, abnormal ejaculation, trouble maintaining erection (ed) and depression
fin is in no way an estrogen supplement that shit's a 5 alpha reductase inhibitor meaning it reduces dht production. if you want actual results you should go straight to injection an estradiol ester like EV or EEn which will halt t production and conversion to dht
SHOUT OUT TO TODAYS SPONSOR
firstly, beards are cope. secondly,
are you morons aware that minox is a DHT inhibitor?
DHT causes head hair loss and facial hair growth. they have an inverse relationship.
putting a dht inhibitor on your face is basically putting beard blocker on yourself. moron.
you are completely wrong in everything you said
"ur wrong"
nice one gay
Doesn’t know the difference between minoxidil and finasteride. If you don’t know things just stay quiet.
>are you morons aware that minox is a DHT inhibitor?
It isn't. It's a potassium channel opener. Minoxidil improves blood flow to the hair follicles. You're talking about Finasteride, which isn't a DHT inhibitor either, it's a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor. It only inhibits the conversion of testosterone to DHT. This is the reason finasteride doesn't do shit for your hair if you take steroids that are DHT derivatives like Primobolan, because it doesn't affect the DHT directly.
minox ages your skin
they are facing lawsuit with people who developed wrinkles using it
and thats people who put it on their head
enjoy the early wrinkles on your face
How do I do the opposite and make my beard grow slower/not at all
I'm tired of shaving
laser/electrolysis
if you don't have a full beard yet then you'll want some antiandrogens or estrogens to kill your testosterone
>25
>patchy beard
I-is it over bros?
Depends on how patchy it is. A little bit patchy is alright, it'll look more even when you grow it out a bit. But everyone looks like an idiot when they first start growing their beard.
I’m not him but aim 27 and mine is patchy patchy, it’s thick where it grows but I have empty cheeks/ lateral neck/ and an inverse hitler stash. I’ve accepted it and just shave daily. I have good chin and jaw so it’s not that bad. Would never put minox on my face tbh, seems like too much effort, and I hate having dry skin.
you use minox in the morning, derma roll + lotion midday to prevent dry skin, and minox in the evening. But don't derma roller everyday.
Thanks for the advice, but I’m good.
Shit advice. Don't dermaroll and Minox on the same day.
You have to minox twice a day and be consistent to see make progress, with your strat there would be not room to use dermaroller at all.
Use Minoxidil twice a day, dermaroll once a week. You should never dermaroll more than once a week regardless of if you use Minoxidil or not because of the risk of developing scar tissue.
The reason you don't want to use mioxidil after dermarolling for 24 hours is because of the alcohol content in the minoxidil solution. Especially if you dermaroll more than once a week which you shouldn't do anyway. You're basically injecting pure ethanol into your skin. This is a short track for completely destroying your skin's health and collagen production.
Yeah sometimes you just gotta accept that it be like it be.
Try getting older before you do anything like that brah
At 18 I could barely grow anything but it filled out through my 20s, can grow a full beard now. I used to get mires at the gym from zoomers telling me I look like obi wan kenobi until I shaved it off
In fact most dudes cant grow a good beard when they're super young, wait till you're 25 at least. And in the time being just cut if you're doing it to look better, your jaw looks much better when youre lean
It’s gonna frick your skin up don’t do it
but then you can grow your beard above, nobody will see.
Just use good lotion for very dry skin regulary during process.
No. I like my heart the way it is https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/article-abstract/361598
I find minoxidil formulations to be pretty irritating to my scalp. I can only imagine that using it directly on my face would make it look like I have disgusting psoriasis all over my cheeks and jaw.
I did and it gave me a goatee and a very sparse cheek coverage and then it just stopped doing anything
Don't judge your beard until you but 35. Only then if it's still really still shit, try medicine.
I'm doing oral minox and both my hair and beard are getting thicker (despite me also using finasteride).
>oral minoxidil
enjoy your enlarged organs and heart arrhythmias, bro
So much fear mongering about dosages at least 10x lower than the therapeutic ones.
I bet you believe finasteride makes your dick literally fall off aswell.
minox destroys collagen. don't put it on your face lmao
You mean it may weakly inhibit collagen production.

If you want a beard fast then just pin Test. srs.
Beards are chinlets and fatties cope.
>suddenly facial hair pops up in my late 20's
Not even alot of it, this is just a bother now since it's pupe hair.
I was thinking about getting a script for oral minox which has the same effects, but haven’t got to doc yet. Apparently it has few if any side effects taken orally, might lower your BP a bit.
>oral
>few sides
yeah, i don't know about that. Topical solutions, like minox if put on sufficiently heavy can go systemic.. i put 5% on my face with the dropper for a few years. my hands, chest, area above my pubes, even the underside of my wrists are all hairier than before. i had weak bodily hair across the board, not so much now. I ONLY applied it to my cheeks and chin with the dropper, using the tip to push it around/ massage.
I have an acne beard does that count?you people told me to stop eating fried things because that was the cause so all I eat is canned tuna 2-3 times a day no mayo and maybe 4-7 bananas and it's gotten worse. Only drink water and tea.
