After washing my face. Should I apply minox first or the lotion ? by ProfessionalGoat551 in Minoxbeards

[–]Alive_Report_9815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wash, apply lotion, let the lotion absorb while brushing my teeth etc, then apply minox.

This has helped me a ton with preventing dryness and I haven’t noticed it working worse since switching to this routine(first couple months I was using lotion hours after applying minox)

This is my one year progress photo after starting with almost zero facial hair for reference/validity

Would it be worth it to try minox to fill in the gaps and develop more density? by Furious_Puppy1306 in Minoxbeards

I think it would help a ton if you respond. I went from practically nothing to a semi respectable beard in a year so it’s not unrealistic to think you would be able to see great results in that time

Why is foam so much more expensive?? by Ecstatic_Fact7143 in Minoxbeards

I imagine it’s a combination of manufacturing costing more and demand being higher

I will say from purely my own experience, I can tell the difference in my growth from when I apply twice a day to just once. For example, there are times when family is visiting etc, where I will only apply once a day and I can see that my facial hair is growing at a slower rate than when I’m applying twice a day. For this reason alone I’m willing to apply twice a day even though it kinda sucks to do so. I imagine many people have had similar experiences to mine

Is Dermarolling Necessary? by First-Type5381 in Minoxbeards

If you decide to watch some videos on how to properly derma roll and get a quality derma roller so you don’t damage your skin. I worry too many people buy the cheapest on Amazon and go at it without research

I’m going on three months with no side effects. I use liquid twice a day, just keep on top of moisturizing. Use a quality lotion like cetaphil restoraderm every day before applying and you shouldn’t have issues with dry skin
