- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- This is my beard journey from baby face to solid stubble. This video describes the beginning of the beard journey. I start to see some progress as I go over the second and third month of applying minoxidil and using it to grow a full beard. You can start to see the minoxidil beard before and after my journey. I hope my videos can encourage you to get your very own beard as well. Do not give up hope!

This is the First video that actually had what I wanted. Thank you.
I am so glad to hear that!
Your journey give me confidence bro thanks a lot !
I’m on week 2.5 of my journey
Thank you Beard Brother! You are well on your way to getting an awesome beard. If you have any questions just let me know and I am more than happy to help! Stay Strong Beard Brother 💪
Yo hows it going any progress?
I've been curious about this for my husband, thanks for sharing!
It definitely does work, but it does take time and patience. There are other things that helped me accelerate my growth such as dermarolling and a good skin routine. During the time of this video, I had not used any of those extra methods and the progress was slower.
At first I thought you went from nothing to the beard you have now in 3 months then I saw your first video lol. I’m in month 2 now and it’s hard to be patient but Incan see progress so that keeps me going! Are you going to make videos for months 4-6?
Yo keep strong beard brother! Month 4 is where it really starts to pop off. The first 3 months are like the great filtering of those who don't have the drive to go all the way. I am going to upload Month 4 tonight! So stay tuned.
great results
Hey just wanted to know if i should be using a derma roller when using minoxidil ? How would i use it ? And i also wanted to know if i can apply lotion after applying the minoxidil ?
I have some videos on this on my channel! Stay Strong Beard Brother
so u have no hair & it is showing that it do work i see you with a full beard so this gives me a better idea of the process deff make more updated videos
Thank you so much, I have many more videos since then and the beard has come in even nicer. Do the work get the beard brother!
@@monkybeard i am & thank you for your videos
Bro can you answer this question… so do I shave the few lower chin hairs I have genetically before any gains from the minoxidil or do I just let it grow along with the vellus hairs from minox or what do I do bc no one seems to talk about that?
You are right, not many people talk about that. I personally found better results when I trimmed and did not shave. That being said, there are some that say that shaving is like an extra dermaplaning for your face which encourages growth.
To me, I feel the shaving could damage incoming vellus hairs which stifles growth. Mine is anecdotal evidence though so take with a grain of salt.
@@monkybeard ok, thank you!
Hlo mister, have u heard about man matters beard products....... I am 19 yrs old and I am using there beardgro growth tonic....... Which had aminexil not minoxidil..... Can u please search about this product & tell me something......... I hope u do 🙂
From what I have heard, the beard growing kits work mostly from the dermarolling process and then moisturizing your skin. If you want faster more guaranteed results I would stick with Minoxidil.
@@monkybeard tnx man
I started using minoxidil on my cheeks and chin. I can only grow a mustache and a little chin hair. It’s been almost a month and I see my head hair seems to shed a bit more than normal. I’m scared but many people have said it will be fine you won’t go bald which is what I’m worried about. No baldness if my family or wife’s. So wondering if you think it’s ok I’m shedding hairs. Not big chunks , but a lot of hairs . Thank you!
Shedding is normal for a few months. It made my hair thin a bit but then it has stabilized for a couple years. I do have balding in my genes and took Finasteride for many years. I stopped taking it before the beard journey, and my hair did not recede any more over the past 2.5 years.
Stay Strong Beard Brother
@@monkybeard thanks ! I’ll keep you updated
@@maxochavez5854 update?
bro do you normally trim your beard? if so when? is it once a month and whats the length of the beard trimmer setting like 3mm or 4mm , or do you grow it out,buti think trimming helps with better absorbtion rather than minox going to ur facial hair
I trim to 4mm to 9mm, I used to shave but it hurt the gains so I swapped to trimming and can rock the heavy stubble look now. Stay Strong Beard Brother
Wanted to try Minoxidil a few years back, growing and trimming my beard for a while since pandemic. Pretty decent growth, a lot of hair but side didn't really get thicker. Do you think I should give it a try?
Most definitely, you might just need a few months
Thanks for sharing. I wonder about the Heart Palpitations, how were they, how long did they last and did you take minoxidil as tablets or as the drops?
They were kinda unnerving initially but now I don't feel much of anything.
They lasted about two months. I only take topical foam Minoxidil.
Do you use sea salt spray to style your hair?
I never did, I was lucky and it styled itself if I laid a certain way when I slept. Buuuuttt I shaved my head and haven't gone back since haha. Stay Strong Beard Brother 💪
Thanks bro, I’m reaching 3 months in 2 weeks.
Keep it up! Once you hit the 6-8 month mark it kinda just stays autopilot from there. Hardly think about the routine anymore. Any gainz on your end?
@@monkybeard I started having baby hair that would appear to be a full beard after a month. I’m on week 11 and the gains seem slow, although I have gained some visible hair on the cheeks and side burns, everywhere else is still baby hair.
@@khoanguyen1176 That's awesome! Keep it up, usually takes another 1-3 months to get those baby hairs to become terminal!
How long to use for permanent
Will it grow where hair doesn’t exist yet ?
my velus hairs haven't turned terminal and its been 5-6 months of on minox. I have a lot of baby hair but you can't see it unless you look very hard. Wondering what your thoughts are.
I would keep it going, the average length of the journey is 1-2 years. I am going on my 3rd year now. I would also consider adding dermarolling and oil to your regiment that really helped as well. Also check your diet to make sure that you are taking in enough collagen or biotin.
I have one now but it doesn’t Dry my skin as people say it does .. so I don’t know if it is original or not . Looks yellowish and a little thick
That is interesting to hear, the one I have is white foam. The liquid also seems very watery and clear, not sure if you have the right stuff. Or check the expiration date too.
It does your dry skin depends how long use it for
@@DefKiller90 Agreed, my skin does not get dry and flakey as it once did. I almost see it as the meds are working. Because any area that I did not put on Minoxidil regularly will get flakey and then it will grow new hair.
Hey man what was your age when you started and what nationality are you?
I’m half Chinese and half Dutch and 31 I have a goatee and moustache with some hair on the sides and I’m just hopping to fill in more of the sides
I am Vietnamese, and was 28 when I started. I had similar growth to you when I started too. Maybe less
@@monkybeard awesome thank you bro I’ve only just started the journey so I’ll trust the process thank you for sharing yours ! 🙏
@@shanek014 Stay Strong Beard Brother!
What can i treat the irritation on my face because of the minoxidle
I would use the Minoxidil, let it dry and then moisturize afterwards. If you are using liquid Minoxidil, you may also want to consider going to Foam, I use foam and it is a lot less irritating.
Whats your routine like do you also derma roll
Yeah I have a video on this, but I dermaroll 2x a week and apply minoxidil 2x daily
Were you using derma roller all this while? And how many times a day we have to apply minoxidil
2x a day, I started dermarolling in Month 3. 2x a week
@@monkybeard and how did you use it. Like minoxidil first, or derma...and how much time gap
@@Vish_911I have a video that explains it, but you derma roll and leave 24 hours before next minoxidil application. Then you go back to 2x a day
Do you experience skin irritation such as redness and itching while using minoxidil?
A little bit, but it doesn't last long, maybe 20 min
@@monkybeardwhat can i use for irritation on my face by using minoxidle brother
Thank's mate for this content!! I'm a filipino and I just started taking minoxidyl...let's see where it will get me😅
Welcome to the journey brother! Stay Strong, you go this
How'd it go?
Hey man! Did you ever experience any chest pains with minoxidil foam version? Or know any stories about it. That’s currently I’m situation just don’t know exactly if it’s due to minoxidil.
Hello! I did, it is called Heart Palpitations. I did a whole side effect video in case you wanted to make sure what you were feeling is normal: ua-cam.com/video/7MaL52WVa2U/v-deo.htmlsi=mO_h98S4u0u5ls1B
Did you have to use the dimer roller for your beard growth journey?
Yes I did, and I ended up using the dermapen later
@@monkybeard did you use it everyday
@@jonathanramos9581Yeah I use Minoxidil every day
Bro i am using minoxidil only in night does it work or not ?
It will, but your progress might be a bit slower
I’ve had every side effect, but the worst was the headaches/feeling tired. Did you experience this and if so, did it go away?
Jesus man I am sorry to hear that. I got a lot of side effects early on and they started to all go away by the 2-3 month mark. The tiredness is pretty brutal that one is less severe but does come and go
@@monkybeard😊
Any side effects ? Hair loss or something?
Hello Oden, there are some side effects. I experienced dry skin, acne, heart palpatations, and very small hair shedding. Most of these side effects disappeared after the first 2-3 months. Acne stayed but lessened significantly.
@@monkybeard Thank you for your answer! So you notice that several hairs fall off, but is it a lot? And does the hair grow back? Is your hair getting thinner or is everything staying the same?
@@StaRB0YGaIL Of course, I am happy to answer! If you mean my head hair, I noticed it get thinner for a month, then it came back within a couple months.
The hair on my beard goes through waves, it will look fuzzy for a month, then get thin for a month, then come in thicker and fuller after that.
I have noticed a very small increase in density of my body hair overall.
Hello sir can I use salicylic acid for acne ( on spot ) while using minoxidil ? Please help me
Hello I would be wary since you are more photosensitive on Minoxidil so you gotta wear sunblock
Do you think all your beard gains was thanks from minoxidil? Or because you just aged
I think I might have gotten a little, but I definitely attribute the growth to dermarolling and minoxidil
@@monkybeardhow many time you use dermaroll and minoxdil bro
How do you apply it?
Hello RichFlairJay, you can take a look at this video for how I apply it: ua-cam.com/video/3vLe1g17oJg/v-deo.html
which brand you used?
I use Rogaine, links are in my description
Do you take any supplements like biotin or vitamin d for beard growth?
I take collagen on occasion (just mix with protein shake), my daily vitamins, and exercise regularly. My vice is that I do not get enough sleep usually. If I slept more, I think my beard would look better.
@monkybeard yes exercise help beard growth it built up your testosterone level cause high testosterone helps beard growth eating your vitamins or take vitamins supplements definitely healthy diet helps beard growth than add minoxidil to fast boost
@@DefKiller90 Thank you for the tips!
Hi bro, Im 21 yo rn and I have ideas of using Minoxidil for beard. Is it too early for me rn? I have been doing exercise and on a diet rn and i hope they can help the beard growth
and i dont have much beard naturally thats pretty frustrated
@@polo-lj6pj If I were you I would wait at least until 23-25. You are still young to have a beard. If you are impatient then you can try now, but you might have slower results.
I've using it for more than 1month and i still had alot flakes on my cheeck and dry skin, is this side effect will go away after few month ? or should i keep using it if still have that side effect
Yeah it'll go away after 2-3 months
Yeah it will go away after a few months. Now I see the flakey skin as progress
Thanks for both answer 🙂🙏🏻
Second question 🙋 while In progress with dry and flaky skin, should I use any product like hydrating toner or moisturizer cream if so, when should I use it before or after? And is it gonna effect my beard hair growth?
@@gamebase329I use lotion, personally I use Hemp body lotion.
The stack should be washed face, minoxidil, then lotion, then sunblock (if going outdoors)
The lotion helps growth if anything from what I have experienced.
which brand you used
I use Rogaine, links are in my description
@@monkybeard I am from Bangladesh.not found rogaing.. I find. Kikraal minoxidil.. What it’s work??
@@Chowdhury-entertainment The biggest thing to look for is the active ingredient which is Minoxidil. It should be clear/white if foam.
Any wrinkles?
None that i have experienced, I do have some slight dark circles under my eyes. Moisturize often and should be okay.
Best company name plz bro results
I personally used Rogaine or Hims, I linked the exact listing I buy in my description. Stay Strong Beard Brother 💪
What level did you trim the chin on?
My chin and moustache areas are my densest areas. I shave everything down to 4-6mm. In this video I believe I was at 9-12mm
How many times you applied in a day
Two times a day
I heard it gives you E.D is it true
Wrong drug, finasteride can potentially do that to you
Do I need to massage right after applying minoxidil bro?
I gently massage the minoxidil in after application. Then I put on lotion after the minoxidil dries. This helps prevent dry skin and wrinkles
Ur age plz handsome?? What is maximum age to start minoxidil plz?
I was 28 when I started, I would say around there would be a good time to start. Gives you time to see if you will naturally grow anything
U only need
Eyebrows more thicker ❤️🔥
Most definitely, I am naturally a hairless guy, that includes male pattern baldness, no eyebrows, little body hair, and no beard. That being said started dermarolling my eyebrows and using Minoxidil there and seems to be working
Saan nyo po bumili Ng minoxidil
I get mine from Amazon, otherwise I am not sure for outside of the US.
You should put some on your eye brows too FITXFEARLESS talks about it in his 6 ways to make your face attractive
Hello Marcus, thank you for the recommendation. I actually do start putting it on my eyebrows in Month 4! You are just ahead of the game. It has helped a lot, though my eyebrows are not nearly as dark as I would like.
Where do you want to come from here ? Ur beard not even connected.
@@lolipopsant4470 I am going to keep applying until July and then see if I am content with the gains
after quite minoxidil it is parmanent
I sure hope so!
U knows , u need years to keep it. Otherwise ull lose them,. They need to turn to terminal before ur off minoxidil
Yeah! Going on 21 months now

Takes a year to turn terminal
