Beard Campaigners say beards are best grown naturally not through the use of Minoxidil
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has advised those seeking to grow a beard to avoid using the drug Minoxidil.
The drug available over the counter at chemists has a side effect of promoting the growth of hair in some people and it has been reported that those seeking to grow a beard have been using it with positive effects:
However the drug can have side effects and the Beard Liberation Front says its organically based guide to beard growth should be used:
Step 1: do not shave
Step 2: by early afternoon, wash the face and comb through the developing stubble
Step 3: during the afternoon rub some real ale, or if you must, lemon juice, into the developing facial hair to nourish it and promote growth
Step 4: In the evening you can begin to trim and style the proto-beard
Step 5: If the results are poor repeat each day for a week until facial hair growth occurs
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, beard may be trendy in some areas but they are not compulsory and nor should they be. Our guide should allow facial hair to grow organically without the need for drugs. If it doesn’t happen, there are other things in the world…
Great article, we shouldn’t use Minoxidil. However I would advise using various male grooming products when growing a beard, as this will help growth by keeping the hair follicles healthy! There’s plenty of beard oil suppliers in the UK!
