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.

You are looking for vitamin B complex, a combination of all the B vitamins which work on the hair, skin, eyes and the tissue lining of the nose, mouth and throat. Vitamins do not have any side effects at all unless you seriously overdose on them. Something else that I find absolutely fantastic is Udo Oil. You can get it in most health shops in liquid or capsule form. Kind of expensive but totally fantastic. Besides this, try eating oily fish twice a week. Hope this helps!!

Vitamin E is really good for hair and skin. Vitamin B12 complex is really good for your skin too. I clears up any blemishes I have within a couple of days. Just remember to eat something when you take this vitamin. It kind of makes my tummy queasy if I don't eat at least a piece of bread or a banana. Also, if you were to go to your local drug store, you can also find vitamins designed only for your hair and skin. Oil of Olay makes one that I personally love.

Already answered this question but I'll answer it again.
Ok, B and E are good for the hair and skin.
A- for the eyes
C-for the immune system
D-for the bones
But vitamin E is the best for the hair and skin.

There are many methods to make our hair grow faster, shine , glitter in natural ways without using chemicals. Learn here https://bitly.im/aOevG Men, and sometimes women, notice that their hair is thinning prematurely for several different reasons. Age, menopause, pregnancy, genetics, illness, and other factors all play a role in hair loss. Sure, you can use drugs or you can go in for a hair transplant or fusion, but sometimes the easiest, most inexpensive solution, is to try to stop hair loss naturally.
