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. Even though I took these GNC pills for 4 months, I wouldn't recommend them because they are not the most high quality pills available.
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.

Protein, vitamins, (esp. biotin), a balanced diet. Hair is nourished from the inside and treat it well on the outside.
Here is some info on biotin and supplements that help hair, skin and nails and if you click on more details there are reviews by users. I like to watch Andrew on TV bc he has a degree in biochemistry and sure seems to know what he's doing - he's really informative.

I've not used the product myself.

I had the same problem and i found that if you keep the ends of your hair trimmed that it will grow faster. All you can do is try.

I know this sounds disgusting, but use manais, mao maonaise..
not sure how to spell it, im not sure wether it makes it grow
faster, or if it is just really healthy for your hair. ive used it when
i had lice, and i put plastic wrap over my head after i put mao in my hair, and it smothered the lice, kills them then i wash my hair out, and the lice washes out with them. and it leaves my hair really healthy and silky!
