I have been taking hair supplements for the past 3 years and here is what I have found.
GNC makes a tablet called "Ultra Nourishair" in formulas for men and women, the pills are taken daily, 2 pills a day. They are HUGE and very hard to swallow, if you have any trouble at all with large tablets, then I wouldn't recommend these. The 2 pills also contain only 1200 micrograms total of Biotin, which is the main supplement needed for hair to grow faster and stronger. You should try to get a minimum of 2500 micrograms of Biotin daily to improve hair's rate of growth and its condition.
ProCaps labs makes a great supplement called "Hair Skin and Nails" formula, here is the link for that
http://www.procapslabs.com/pcl/pages/pro...
This is in capsule form and much easier to swallow. This company, ProCaps labs is also extremely reputable and carries pure and effective products.
I took GNC's Nourishair for four months, and supplemented it with extra Biotin tablets daily due to its low Biotin content. I took 2500 micrograms extra Biotin with the GNC pills.
The Procaps hair vites have 2500 micrograms of Biotin in them, and don't really require extra Biotin be taken, but I do take an additional 2500 micrograms of Biotin for a daily total of 5000 micrograms of Biotin.
My hair is growing in thick and dark and quite quickly. My hair used to be very slow growing, but all of these supplements have really made a difference.
The only way to really change the health of your hair is by taking supplements that work internally on the follicle where hair is made, any shampoos or oils or other topically applied things do nothing to change hair's structure, that can only happen with systemically provided support, which means supplements that you take internally.. Keep in mind, regardless of how many or how much you take of any supplement, hair is never going to grow at a "Jack and the beanstalk" type of rate, the most you can hope for is to improve the strength and health of each hair follicle and to see an incremental increase in the rate of its growth.

put alot of coconut oil. It works because everyone in India put oil and our hair is long shiny and full of shine.
Cut the ends every two months. Splits can spoil hair growth.
Shampoo and condition twice a week.
Put nice hair creme and buy branded stuff only. Kerastase is the best. Costly but pampers your hair.
Never use a blow dryer. Its sucks. Let hair dry with a towel only.
never tie it too tight. Always braid it when it grows I mean.
Sleep with hair left loose.
Go for a head scalp massage every month once, which includes a wash also.
Try an Indian parlour for this massage. They put their soul into those massages plus they use only oil.
Finally, be positive, and be strong. Hair care is important and follicles need care.
Best of Luck

Prenatal vitamins will work. Also, and it's gonna sound nuts, after showering, rinse your hair with cold water. Cold water will stimulate the hair follicle causing it to "wake up" and grow. Cut your ends (just the very tips) every six to eight weeks. Cutting the ends also will stimulate your hair. Use a clarifying shampoo once a week to remove build-up on hair shafts and scalp. Cut back on styling products because they choke your hair.
Everyone's hair grows at different speeds. Mine grows an inch a month. My sister's grows almost 2 inches a month. It just depends. Good luck to you!

Try a hair growing shampoo at ULTA or any other beauty store
But make sure that it's not damaging because then you'll end up with not much hair at all
Or if you want long hair fast
try some extensions

Stay out of beauty salons, stay away from hair stylists, don't use heat on your hair, keep your hair moisturized with a leave-in treatment, and don't brush 100x or over manipulate your hair. Most hair grows anywhere from 3/4" to 1" per month.

Hair loss affects both men and women. Here are some natural remedies that can help boost hair growth: https://bitly.im/aMKog While genetics plays a role, there are other factors, including: hormonal imbalances, an underactive thyroid gland, nutrient deficiencies and insufficient scalp circulation.

Well I've heard that Pre-natal vitamins are good for hair. I would also recommend Mane and Tail shampoo and conditioner. You'll find it in the pet area of the stores and it does seem to help also.

cover your hair with a hat when your going to bed and when your around the house. Hair grows quicker in dark warm conditions. Or you could just go on a holiday. it grows really quick in hot countries.
