Does minoxidil always speed up facial hair growth?

[Alexanderr]

I’m not even applying it to my facial hair area yet I notice it growing a lot faster and thicker. JFL.

I’ve been applying it to my eyebrows for about 6 weeks now. About 1-2 weeks in my forehead skin worsened a bit, as in, I got some more pimples than usual but those went away by week 4 or so.

I noticed some flaking skin and itchiness as well, probably due to the alcohol.

As for the gains I’ve noticed... I think my eyebrows have become a very little bit thicker but that’s about it. Real gains should start showing 8-12 weeks in though,

do you apply it to your cheeks/neck or only eye brows?

Only eyebrows.

When I initially started using it once a day, my resting heart rate increased drastically. Supposedly that can be a legit side effect. I quit it for a while and went back on it a few weeks ago and haven't noticed this side effect since so maybe I recovered and then adapted to it.

I seriously doubt it could cause that topically

I wouldn't have thought so either but my heart rate was so high that I couldn't sleep. Like I say though, it's fine now so maybe just an adaption period.

Why tf did you measure your resting heart rate taking minoxidil? Are you that high inhib?

 

[Deleted member 9670]

you're only applying a small amount to brows I doubt this is enough for it to go systemic

Haha, I didn't physically measure it. When I was lying down at night I could feel my heart beating rapidly - it was weird and I couldn't sleep. And it wasn't nocebo either - I had no idea that minox was linked to heart stuff until I googled it subsequently. Back to using it for the last 3 weeks and haven't had any issue since.

What about eyebrows length? Do you believe you could potentially lengthen them?

Yeah, that’s one of the reason I started using minoxidil.

My eyebrows are growing thick as fk even though I’m applying it on my hairline (which isn’t that far away to be fair)

 

[Dutcher]

Only eyebrows.

How long? How is it going? Worth it?

It’s going well. I’ve been applying it to my eyebrows for about 6 weeks now. About 1-2 weeks in my forehead skin worsened a bit, as in, I got some more pimples than usual but those went away by week 4 or so.

Yeah sure I’ll be updating. It looks promising though.

 

[IWantToMax]

Yeah, that’s one of the reason I started using minoxidil.

How much do you apply on eyebrows? 1ml/day
