Things You'll Need:
- Vitamins
- Skin care products
- Minoxidil [optional -- with a caution]
-
Step 1
Stay healthy and take care of yourself. Certain minerals and vitamins are documented as being beneficial to hair growth. Be sure you have the appropriate amount of these nutrients in your diet. These nutrients include, but are not limited to, 15,000 IU of Vitamin A; 50 mg each of Vitamins B3, 5, 6, and 12; two grams of Vitamin C; 800 IU of Vitamin E and 50 mg of Biotin on a daily basis.
-
Step 2
Get adequate amounts of sleep. Your body uses the time you are sleeping to repair, restore and refresh and sleep will help your hair to grow. If you are not getting enough sleep, your hair growth will slow down and your hair may become weaker. Most people need between seven to nine hours of sleep each night.
-
Step 3
Stress can slow down hair growth and make your hair weak and brittle. To help your facial hair grow, be sure to limit the amount of stress in your life and learn how to handle the stressors that are present. Exercise, meditation, yoga, deep-breathing exercises and stress-management classes are all recommended strategies for dealing with stress.

Step 4
Keep your face clean, moisturized and exfoliated to allow for good facial hair growth. Steam opens up pores for easier cleaning and closer shaving. Exfoliating removes the dead skin cells and keeps your pores and hair follicles clear. This will allow better hair growth and will limit the incidences of in-grown hairs. Moisturizer keeps your skin healthy, which will also allow for better hair growth. If your skin is dry and flaking, you will have more in-grown hairs, and your facial hair growth will become stunted.

on 12/1/2009 I can grow most of a beard, but not quite all of it. It comes in above my lips and on my chin, as well as good sideburns, and along my neck - but it doesn't grow in on the sides of my lips and just under the left side of my chin.
Weird how its that sporadic.
Thanks for the message though - I'm going to give the vitamins a shot. I don't have much stress in my life, nor do I have ANY trouble sleeping - I usually pack in 8 to 10 hours a night. I make sure I get a whole lot of sleep. And it sure isn't genetics - my dad and my grandfather on my moms side, as well as one of my dads uncles, had righteous beards and goatees. I'm also a pretty clean guy, always washing my face and all that.
Well, I'm hoping for a nice, full, trimmed, neat beard sometime in the future.

on 3/6/2009 I have been trying to grow a beard for a long time and I finally gave up. As my girlfriend always tells me, grass doesn't grow on a busy street.
