My 2 Year Minoxidil Beard Transformation

  • Опубликовано: 16 июл 2024
  • Many of us dream of growing some nice full, thick stubble, a full beard perhaps? Unfortunately the expectation vs reality in many cases can be quite a way off as our chins resemble a patched together blanket rather than a luxurious forest of stubble. Thankfully there is hope, as you can see from the image.

    The shedding is normal, it happens when your hair is developing from the vellus hair phase to the terminal hair phase.
    I have currently been using the liquid kirkland brand for a little less than a month and I'm noticing a slight change so I'm excited to see how things will look in the coming months.

      @@DaHaranGamer I had noticeable results after about 4 months, I stayed on it for about 7 months and then stopped. I started shedding after I stopped, and my current facial hair is more substantial than it was before I started, but not as good as it was at the 4-5 month peak after starting minoxidil. You have to be on it for about a year to achieve really strong, permanent results, and I would recommend the foam version that is a bit more expensive as it absorbs better, if that's in the cards financially. I was starting to notice heart palpitations that became somewhat more frequent, but that has since stopped after I stopped using it.

    You do rock your beard well brother. You dont overdo it and grow it too long. Im currently at week 12 and ive noticed very minimal changes but i am staying optimistic and will continue for at least 6 months like you recommend. When i started, you can tell my genetics gave me a beard that wanted to be full but couldn’t. Patchy in my cheeks and it doesnt go fully around my jaw. Will definitely hope to see new changes.

    I have no hairs on my cheek, only a johnny depp type chin/moustache. Being half, my hairs are thick but I have very few. I'm only 20, so is it worth starting or should I wait?

    i'm on accutane 10mg currently because of my acne. I might wanna try minoxidil to increase my beard growth. Does minoxidil give people acne? Is it okay to use minoxidil while still on accutane?

    • @LettingManKnow
      @LettingManKnow  4 года назад +1

      Thanks man! I was on accutane while I was younger too, hope it clears out. If it was me, I would be hesitant because accutane already makes your skin incredibly dry (which minoxidil could make worse). I get you're probably super eager to start but may be best to focus on one thing at a time.

    • @docgrowsfood
      @docgrowsfood 4 года назад +1

      I used Accutane at a higher dose than you for 4.5 months while on minoxidil (was a little over a year into my journey at that point). The dryness was intense. You have to be committed to carrying moisturizer around with you at all times because being without it can become unbearable. If you haven’t started minox yet, I’d wait until you’re done with accutane. Once you’ve completed accutane, minox will not cause you any new breakouts. Both drugs are magical for their intended purposes and produce real results, but be prepared to make a huge commitment when using them or you’re gonna have a bad time.

    I've never used Minoxidil, but I started using it a couple days ago. I have a decent beard, mustaches as well. The only part I'm not satisfied with is the under-the-lip part. I have a sole patch, but below it there's almost no hair to connect with the chin area. I've completely shaved off my beard after years of rocking it to apply the product easier. Tell me is once per day application is ok for that small area? How did you go with that part of beard?

    • @LettingManKnow

      The best routine for you is what suits your schedule also. The minoxidil half life is 23 hours so twice per day is advised as optimal, however you could get away with once per day (as I did many times). 6 months is a general guide to ensure your new hairs have turned terminal. Stopping too early can cause you to lose some of the new hairs.

      Hey Burak from Turkey! 7 months you should have some permanent hairs and also some 'baby' hairs that you likely won't keep.
      I would advise not to stop suddenly but taper off e.g. apply minoxidil every two days, then every 3 or 4 days, then once a week and come off slowly. This should give you the best chance to keep as much as possible.
