    Started a week after my 16th birthday, almost 3 months in. Ive seen way better results than most people on youtube like yourself. Not that its a contest just letting people know it works. But most people my age lack DHT which helps to darken/thicken the hair. Coincidentally i take a supplement called creatine that is know to increase DHT, i cant say forsure that its helped with growing a beard but you should definitely give it a try.

      DHT is known to have other side effects, such as causing and accelerating male pattern baldness, so be careful with that.

    I stopped using minoxidil after 1 week because I have serious side effects like chest pain, dizziness and fast heartbeat and difficulty in breathing (especially when I'm sleeping) it was not pleasant at all.

      still don't get why 18 is the magic safety barrier, it sounds stupid because for one example, let's say it's midnight and you're about to turn 18. you're saying it like you immediately become immune to the side effects, which obviously sounds stupid. the reason they require you to use it at 18 is because they haven't tested it on people under 18, therefore the proof of extreme side effects under 18 is minimal to none. i'm 17 and i've been using it since january, literally no side effects at all.

    • @ToBeardAndBeyond
      @ToBeardAndBeyond  4 роки тому +1

      I'll make a video about it soon! Essentially, DHT is Dihydrotestosterone and is really bad for your head hair. It binds to hair follicles and causes male pattern baldness. That's why a lot of lotions have DHT blockers or inhibitors, so that it slows the balding process. However, DHT is important for growing beards, so you don't wanna block it! DHT is the reason why guys who have killer beards are often bald.
