Hair Skin Nails/Hair Growth Supplements Ingredient Thread

God's Own
This thread was inspired by Melody.Monroes thread comparing HairFinity to FutureBiotics and taking a poll on hair vitamin use. I thought it would be helpful to have a single thread to post the ingredients for Hair Skin Nail and Hair Growth Supplements. The "what are the ingredients" question is asked quite often. With the countless number of HSN/Hair Growth supplements having a single repository with names and ingredients can save a lot of time and help evaluate you evaluate the product.
So if you use a HSN supplement that isn't posted already, please make a post and share the ingredients list.

Lita how does taking the bhringraj/maka internally compare to applying it topically to the scalp.

MileHighDiva Hi! It's a very good antioxidant,good for balancing organ function & it helps with shedding issues from the inside...The effects starts internally first,hair results shortly followes...Applying it on top,you'll see shedding/breakage stop..Instantly..Thickening too..

*If you do both,have longer lasting effect..

Happy Hair Growing!
