Title: yanno that rogain stuff?
Post by: jonjon on July 13, 2007, 01:44:12 PM
I've been taking a similar product thats available in the UK for about a month now. I have some darkening of the upper lip and few bits of face fluff becoming a little thicker than just fluff.

But, my question is, would i get better results if i started to shave? Or should i just keep on growing the face the fluff and wait for it to get darker?

Shaving doesn't make any difference to hair growth, but because you're blunting the end, you'll get more of a feel of stubble if you shave.

Plus dark fluff can look silly.

Overall, I'd say shave, but it's up to you.

Something similar to Rogaine. Look for a product with Minoxidil. Usually called a Men's Hair Regrowth Treatment or anything like that. I'm using it too. Can't tell whether it's working or whether I'm just going through a bit of an increase in facial hair growth.

Yeah been on it for 2.5 years and have fairly pathetic facial hair. Hence the extra effort.
