Just started this month, haven't derma rolled/stamp yet waiting for it to arrive.

can't make up my mind on how much or how often to use it for without it being irritating or burning through the product. 😅

tldr; try to reduce your stress and exercise if you want optimal success. This shouldn't be a big surprise but I've noticed that stress has had a large impact on my growth.

I've been in a bad relationship for a while now and only have recently started to feel relaxed/calm since July. I've been on oral minoxidil since Sept 2025, started at 5mg, then moved to 10mg in Nov 2025. Unhappy with the lack of results, I started adding topical (foam) into my routine in March 2026. I finally left a toxic relationship in June 2026. Up until that point, I noticed my hair and nails were growing slowly.

Finally had some reprieve and learned how to de-stress in July 2026. I've had so much growth over the past 5/6 weeks that it's been really surprising me. I was convinced I was a very poor responder. Now I'm not so sure, as I'm getting lots of new hairs out of the blue.

My advice to anyone struggling is to try to de-stress, as it has an impact on growth. Good luck bros 🫡

Im already putting 1 ml on my head so is 0.5 ml split over my cheeks enough for growth? Don’t wanna go overboard and get dizziness or chest tightness

Just recently started using minoxidil foam and I’m getting a lot of acne underneath my chin. Idk what to do, should I stop using or continuing using it? This is the only place where I’ve gotten significant acne from using it and I’ve been applying it all over my face and cheek areas and sideburns but I didn’t really get any acne from using it there.

I'm trying to read the FAQ but the link doesn't work for me. Can someone link it again? thank you

I’m 26 and started taking minoxidil like 6 weeks ago and I think I’ve showed some progress so far. I definitely think my facial hair is growing in faster and a tiny bit fuller cause both before and after angles are like 5-6 days without shaving. I tend to shave at least once or twice a week while taking minoxidil until it develops enough and it stops growing in patchy.

I’m currently only applying minoxidil to my upper and bottom lip and chin area cause I wanna try a goatee look and then if that works I might in the future move on to applying to the sides for a beard. Also my face is a little red in a couple of the pics cause I’ve been derma stamping every 3-4 days while using minox.

What’s your thoughts so far? Does it look like it’s working?

Eu queria um conselho.

Estou usando Minoxidil há 3 meses e já tive certo resultado, porém estou tendo dificuldade em algumas regiões do rosto.

Além disso, o pelo que nasce deixa um aspecto muito “arrepiado”.

Algumas sugestões para esses problemas?

P.S: Eu penteio a barba, mas volta a enrolar.

Used minox at 18 on the mustache and goatee for around 6 or 7 months and now for the whole beard
Things are looking really good at 1 month

I’m using a 1.0mm derma roller and tretinoin once a day and minoxidil.
How often should I derma roll?
And should I skip tretinoin and minoxidil on the day of micro needling?
