The BEST Vitamins for Hair Growth are. . . (drumrolls please...)

[jasmin]

NatureMade B Complex 100, Calcium for strength and maybe a multi.

 

[sengschick]

Viviscal (actually low on vits, but great for cranking out hair) and Phytophanere Hair & Nails (b-complex w/wheatgerm and fish oil) that stuff is wonderful, your hair shines and nails transform. Doesn't claim growth but health benefits, but all the same it gives me an extra 1/4-1/2" per month. /images/graemlins/up.gif /images/graemlins/up.gif /images/graemlins/up.gif
That's all I need /images/graemlins/wink.gif.

 

[dreemssold]

Ok...I see a bunch of MSM on here...I thought MSM made your hair feel softer, but not grow longer...anyone?

 

[Carlie]

One of the MANY things about MSM that makes it SO beneficial is that it extends the growth phase of the hair, allowing the hair to grow to longer lengths without shedding as much. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

ETA: MSM helps the body to produce stronger hair. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

 

[dreemssold]

Ahhh, ok, thanks, Carlie /images/graemlins/smile.gif.

hi, i get it from the wholefood store. i'll have to get back to you on the brand. when i go home i'll check the label. so i'll pm you monday. when i drink tea i just leave the bag in there the entire time. i did get an increase in growth with this combo, not sure exactly how much bc don't measure. i stopped simply bc i stopped being consistent and there's no need in wasting ur money on viatmins and things if u aren't going to be consistent. i might start back though. /images/graemlins/scratchchin.gif

[model_chick717]

biotin, evening primrose oil, L-cystein

 

[Carlie]

From all of the responses, looks like biotin is another must-have for growth! /images/graemlins/up.gif

 

[lunalight7]

biotin, flaxseed oil, evening primrose oil

 

[CICI24]

Ultra nourishair, viviscal, green foods

[luv04]

biotin,msm,silica

 

[asha]

Great thread Carlie...love the scenario.

I have a request...as I read the responses I am making a list to see what vitamin (s) are the top 3 overall (so far Biotin is definately #1). I was wondering if people could list the brand of their vitamins..for instance my top three would be

Puritan's pride Biotin
puritan's pride pantothenic acid
Kaire MSM complex

Just so people can see what brands are tops overall...may help someone when making a decision on what vitamin to get and from where.

Thanks all..keep the answers coming

 

[Carlie]

Asha, for biotin, I use the Nature's Bounty brand (which is the same as the PP). For MSM, I use the TriMedica brand. /images/graemlins/cool.gif

 

[Carlie]

bump...

 

[dreamgurl]

Ultra Nourishair
Cod Liver Oil/Fish Oil (Carlson's brand)
Metagreens, Metaberry and Aloe Gold (mix it all in apple juice)

 

[Cowgirl]

Andrew Lessmans - Healthy Hair, Skin &amp; Nails

So Carlie, Have you started compiling this list yet /images/graemlins/rofl.gif

 

[Allandra]

/images/graemlins/rofl.gif I have no idea (much easier if I could just take everything).

 

[DangerouslyShy]

what does the MSM do? i take biotin now what would you suggest i take with it...I take a b complex vitamin as well...

any suggestions...?

 

[bajanplums1]

BIOTIN, MSM, b-complex
(I would sneak ultranourishair, silica and a multivitamin in my bra)

 

[InsertCleverNameHere]

I would say VITAMINS SUCK!!!! But then again I don't think I've ever taken one long enough and consistently anough to tell the difference /images/graemlins/look.gif
