So I decided to try a little experiment and use minoxidil to promote facial hair growth. The results are actually really fantastic so far! Ive been applying it twice a day for three months straight (consistency is very important with this), and Ive seen more growth in the past three months than i had at all previously in my first 6months on testosterone (Now 9months). Check out my comparison video if you're interested in giving this a shot! :)

Yep, it's pretty good. However if you stop using it, you might experience some loss of that good growth too. I'm not sure if that's the effect of the body needing to naturally catch up with it after you stop applying or what, but after I stopped applying it, the growth I got receded in parts and is now back to it original rate of creeping very slowly across my face. I stopped applying because I am still shaving daily anyway, and I was using it just to speed up the process of turning facial vellus hairs to terminal hairs (and to see how well it worked).
Welcome to Susan's Place. I see you stepped right into a subject with your first post. While I have never used Minoxidil, I have heard that is it's not recommended for usage with facial hair. I don't know the reason but under the effect of testosterone alone, facial hair seems to eventually develop pretty well.
