I'm 24, and your description of your body and facial hair sounds just like me. I've been wondering about Rogaine on the face for a while now, but I didn't want to waste the money to find out it doesn't work. Thanks George!

Hello, I am a 19 year old, and i stumbled upon this thread on the internet when i was looking for ways to boost facial hair growth. I developed early compared to the kids my age. I have thick body hair, on my legs, arms and torso. The men in my family all have full, thick beards. I have NONE. I only have a little stubble on my chin, and some light hairs below my nose. I have no sideburns, and very little hair grows on my upper neck/under my jaw. Most of you would think i'm only impatient,...

@beardbeard
tretinoin cream promotes exfoliation and dermal exchange, its going to irritate your skin and make it more sensitive to sun, cold, heat, wind etc. so I wouldn't combine it with minox unless it is prescribed by a physician because the irritation that comes with minox will be magnified, now if you are one of the guys that doesn't experience any irritation with the use of minox, maybe the tretinoin can increase the amount of minox that gets absorbed into your skin,...

Hi guys,

I wonder if any of you have any idea about the use of tretinoin cream (retin a) with minox at the same time? I am confused because some support using it with minox while others do not. I really need a clear explanation? thanks for all answers

waiting an answer for two day! I do not need scientific evidence but just opinions and experiences.

Hey all, Just stumbled across this awesome board on beards, one of my passions. I have a quick question that I would like to ask. I already got a decent beard, but my eyebrows have always been a bit far apart.I got quick a bit of hair on my face and a few hairs/fuzz on my forehead between my eyes, and I was wondering if I could grow them longer and part of my eye brows with Rogaine use? Is it gonna look really different cause the hair type is different? Is eyebrow hair different to facial...

corticosteroid cream is known to induce hair growth, the more potent the better, but it can thin the skin & cause stretch marks if used long term so be careful. A mild cortisone cream should help with flakey & red skin from minox use, so yeah good combo, but be careful with the steroid cream.

Anyone uses corticosteroid cream and minox. My face cant take two times a day 1 ml of minx.Use once in a day app in night. But in day time, i have started to use Fluocinolone acetonide corticosteroid cream. Its my 6 week with minox. And there is some improvment, hairs are becoming thicker and noticable on chicks. Is this combination good?

Ignore the caffine post (although it still could be relevent from a IGF 1 point of view). I found this:

'Even if there is an effect on hair growth in test tubes - and I'm prepared to accept that there's evidence - that doesn't mean putting a lotion containing caffeine mean putting a lotion containing caffeine on your scalp is going to stimulate your hair to grow.

'Interestingly, Minoxidil, which does prevent hair loss in men, has no effect on hairs growing...

@ JC & Cult, will do although I have not started anything yet. I am still researching at the moment to make sure I don't add anything detrimental to the regieme, but as soon as I start I will post before pics & monthly updates.

Came accross this about Caffeine, very interesting indeed!!

well started back on the minox (equate brand) today. i tried the experiment a year or so ago and got a some results but ran out of money. so ill use the cheap stuff for a while to build my tolerance up and then switch to either the 12.5% from Regrowth or the 15% from Perfect Hair Sol.

Cult & others that may be interested. My latest research suggests that IGF 1 has a role to play in the development of hair follicles.

Rogaine Experiment

feeds@yuku.com (Curi0usGeorge) — Tue, 21 Jan 2003 22:56:18 GMT

Well, this is my first post here. After a bit of research (here and elsewhere), I've decided to give Rogaine a try for beard growth. My beard is extremely thin. I had an "almost" goatee growing until today, but I didn't care for the way it was coming in. I let it grow for over two weeks, and it was remaining thin. Almost none of the hair was actually course. It was all fairly soft.

So what I'm going to do is start applying Rogaine extra strength (or one of the generic...
