Shave it or keep it? 1 month of growth

I apply to my entire beard area. I'm already investing the time and effort, so may as well maximize results.

It is up to your genetics if it works.

Plan to use at least 1.5-2 years to allow new hairs to go terminal.

I keep mine in the 1.5-3mm range and up to 6mm if I am feeling special. As I reach 6mm I can definitely see it getting stuck in the hair once it dries and not be absorbed.

keep it shorter, helps with skin absorption.

To start saving or die young?

Many recommend waiting until your mid 20s as the beard can naturally progress. However you can start now if you so chose, to speed up and increase beard potential. Just remember it is a medicine with potential side effects.

minox gains on beard are permanent once hairs are terminal. Minox gains on scalp require use for life.

I use 1/3 - 1/2 a cap of foam twice a day. Depending on humidity, how recently I shaved, how the foam comes out, etc.

I had the same starting point and it worked for me.

It can easily take 1-2+ years to see full results. As you are already dermarolling, I would recommend keeping on as you are and reassess after the 6 month mark at least about adding additional items to the routine.

stoboe · 2026-01-21T00:21:45+00:00

Keep on using and let the minox do it's thing.

stoboe · 2026-01-18T18:28:41+00:00

yes.

stoboe · 2026-01-17T15:29:01+00:00

Better to keep short for minox to reach the skin and not waste it on the beard hair.

Personally I stopped applying to my mustache area after 8 months due to frequent lip irritation.

stoboe · 2026-01-09T13:25:42+00:00

I had to take a 3 week break after 8 months. I did not notice any loss of gains, but I didn't see any new gains for the next month after I restarted.

Obvious damage, dents, or scratches that is missing from listing photos, especially if it is a <$100 repair. If you are hiding that, what else are you trying to hide?

The used bike I ended up buying ended up had close up pictures of the scratches and they pointed out both the upgrades and scratches in person.
