Some people just can't grow facial hair. My dad doesn't really have good facial hair and my mother is hispanic, meaning bad beard growing genes innately.
Zachary Perez
Oh my fucking god
John Sullivan
I just realised how gay self improvement is
Nolan Harris
Does minoxidil work for low test (quarter) Asians who can't grow anything beyond 13 year old light pedo staches and pube chins? My hapa dad is the same way.
Jaxson Kelly
Yeah.
I had no sideburns at all and would grow out my hair to give the illusion of having them. The only facial hair I could grow was a small light patch under my chin, an a pube chin. I had like 6 hairs on the sides of my face and just a few on my mustache area.
takes like 2 months to start seeing results though.
Brandon Long
been able to grow a full beard since 15-16 umad
Brayden Morales
does this initiate MPB tho because otherwise I wouldn't be going bald
Isaiah Green
if you have MPB you'll lose your hair regardless
John Lee
I don't, that's the thing
Aaron Rodriguez
>>been applying minoxodil to my face for a few months get ready to look like an old man
Asher Mitchell
Been using minoxodil for about a month on my patch ass beard, it's starting to finally grow in the bald spot. Your picrelated is pretty much my goal too. Also starting to buy better and better clothing as I get fit, but I'm gonna wait til I'm at my goal weight of 180
Robert Parker
Speaking of buying better clothing
I need a job. I quit a shitty cart pushing job. What's a good non-demeaning part time job so I can get effay?
Bentley Russell
You could try bartending or serving. That's what I do. I make 10/hr along with tips, so I'm never really strapped for cash. Also very flexible hours if ur in college like me
Thomas Green
Don't you know that Minoxidil stops working after a few years? When you are in your 30s you'll be beardlets with a wrinkly face, because it also makes you skin age faster.

Matthew Nguyen
Is it just me or are guys that look like this so much more rare than hot chicks? Like, in my life, I have never seen a dude that looks this good. Chicks, yeah man, I have seen some fucking dimes; but this guy is a fucking unicorn.
Ryan Torres
Minoxodil doesn't stop working. After you achieve your goal hair growth you can simply stop using it and you'll keep ur beard
Carson Thomas
I'll never understand people who use a straight razor at home. I can understand if you get it done at a barber, but doing it at home and making your own lather and all of that shit is pretty fedora
Kevin Thompson
didn't use a straight razor, just a regular one.
Also, using shaving butter with a brush is so much easier than foam.
You just wet the brush, swirl it on the butter, and brush it on your face. Feels so nice.
Colton Price
Can I take anything to hinder facial hair growth? It grows like weed but I have empty spots where it doesn't grow so I need to shave it to look good. Test has increased a lot since I started lifting so I need to shave daily to look descent, getting boring
Brayden Cruz
Go read on the many hair loss forums the experiences of long term Minox users. The results are great, but not only you lose the hair gained when you stop using it, it also come to a point when it doesn't work anymore.
Henry Green
the trips of truth. Poor guy has no idea what hes talking about.
Caleb Collins
>androgenic hair is the same as scalp hair
Carter Clark
>also comes to a point when it doesn't work anymore
yeah, that's when you stop using it >lose the hair gained when you stop using it
no, you don't. You have to use it long enough that the hairs become terminal hairs and you're done.
Jayden Long
yeah also this
minoxidil is targeted towards people with dying hair follicles. They are dependent on it otherwise the hair falls out
Minoxidil just activates dormant hairs on the face.
William Nguyen
>Going to these extremes to get something you don't have.
Jesus man, don't have a beard? Big deal, get a fucking detailed manly jaw and show those beard fags who only grow beards to hide their baby faces.
I also want a beard, but got shit facial hair genes, i'm not going to kill myself for that, i'll try my best to boost my good qualities. (which are not many at all)
Daniel Ramirez
>rubbing 5% minoxidil+alcohol on your face is going to extremes/killing yourself
?
Adam Campbell
I don't know about you, but to me it sounds stupid as hell.
Or atleast gay as fuck.
Robert Howard
>growing facial hair is gay
Josiah Price
Cut out drinking heavy, using the negative feelings to fuel exercise instead, eating good, no longer have to plan my hungover days where I literally do nothing because I can no longer function, looking a lot better, feeling a lot better, lost lots of weight and am getting fit like I was 6 years ago. M-maybe I'll find a gf
Evan Torres
>using beauty products isn't gay
Ethan Martinez
stay ugly
Joseph Reed
>certain actions can modify your sexuality >being this insecure
do you cry yourself into sleep thinking on cock ? faggot?
David Moore
protip: become the person you want to become first, get a gf second.
Jaxson Ortiz
You're the faggot, fucking gayass board, fight me IRL.
Christian Torres
I know a guy who is 18. His father has the genes for a killer beard, but he hasn't grown any facial hair yet, apart from the shit mustach everyone grows in the beginning. The family of the mother's side has no beards at all
Will minoxidil start the growth for this kid?
Noah Barnes
yes
Brody Gutierrez
how would you know if the hairs become terminal then? everyones flinging shit without proof on either side
Jack Adams
when they're a thick black hair
They start off growing as thin wispy things (vellus hair) and then thicken out. When they do that, they're good.
Xavier Wright
Really? I'll tell him that, then
Although some user here mentions that it will fuck up his face and make it age faster, and the gains won't last. I don't want to catch flak from his dad.
Jason Gomez
Minox is sold commercially for people who are losing their hair. When you are losing your hair, the scalp is a toxic environment for your hair in general and your hair is dependent on minox so they don't die and fall out.
When you use minox on your face you just turn vellus hairs and dormant face hair into terminal hairs. The hairs are already there, they just haven't been turned on.
As for aging, idk. I haven't heard of that until this thread. The best I found was that it made you retain water, but that shouldn't be a problem if exercise. I haven't noticed anything and I'm on month 3 out of 6 (6 bottles)
Brody Hall
How do you apply Minoxidil to your face?
Dominic Hill
I thought I already did, but apparently not. Maybe it's just a vicious cycle
Colton Perez
Liquid minox comes with a dropper that screws in place of the lid of the bottles (1 bottle=1 month). It has a 2mL measurement mark on there and you just put 2mL twice daily on your face and rub it in and let it dry.
Juan Gray
also i should add you don't rub it in all of your face like face wash.
just on your cheeks, mustache area, chin, sideburns, under your jaw, and maybe eyebrows.
