facial hair from minoxidil

[Troglodyte452]

Anyone had success with growing a moustache / goatee with minoxidil? I have a moustache and a goatee but it's not dense enough to not shave it. Also do the new facial hairs from minox fall out the second I stop using the product like it does with scalp?

it will work for sure. I used it to go from nothing to almost full beard (still thin on the cheeks) in 6 months at age 16. Stopped at 17 and kept the beard. i already had genetics for a beard (arab pheno) and minox just sped up the process, so it didnt go away. if you have really bad genetics, it might start thinning after you stop, idk tho just theory. But it works crazy while you use it

You had any side effects from minox? You had foam or oral

i used foam from amazon for a while and i didnt have any side effects. When i switched to the costco minoxidil i started seeing a very small amount of acne. I am not prone to acne tho so it might affect others more.
Also the effectiveness of minoxidil is dependent on the concentration of a certain enzyme that breaks it down in your skin cells, so genetics also play a role. Try it, you might be a hyper-responder
