It sounds like you haven’t done your research on minoxidil. That stuff works wonder to grow a mustache+beard!
They make stuff to help with this ?
My stache grows just fine, but can't grow a beard or goatee worth a damn.
It won't grow in very full at all nor will it grow very long, I'm not sure if I'd like having a beard but I'd like to try.

Temperature slowly rising, so trading in the wool for horsehide. HD Cycle Champ (RW/Elvis version):

If I could have gotten a used Vanson in this color I would have been thrilled but alas I am not that patient.
Here's an image of my Vanson Maverick in Brandy Roma (it's not that RED in person). I ordered this expecting a 8-9 week turnaround but it arrived a week later. Apparently they have these in stock even though it indicates 'Special Order' on the site. Your 5 Star appears a bit more robust overall compared to my Vanson. I'm more than pleased with my Maverick as I'm sure you are with your 5 Star.

Yes, I’ve been on minoxidil for my facial hair for 14 months and it has doubled my coverage. I have a full beard now (and I’m of Asian descent, among which can’t grow much facial hair). I need to use it for 2-3 years for the hairs to become permanent. Do your research.

That looks great! Vanson has such good patterns I'm sure it feels better to wear than mine. That's a place where five star really falls down. Even if you get it to look great (which is a crap shoot) it most likely won't feel as great to wear as a Vanson or better brands. Maybe I will upgrade at some point in time. Thanks for showing it!

Vanson Cheyenne. Temps finally moving in the right direction. Took the boy to a glass bottom boat ride south in San Marcos. Pretty cool.
