Hi ladies,
Some of you all know I had a setback with bleach and horrible haircut this year that took me from BSL to around SL (not even full SL) so I have had to cut alot of my hair. I have not had my hair damaged like this in over 15 years.
I usually do keratin treatments, my last one was in the Summer 2012, but now I am growing my natural hair out completely. I have about 3 inches or more of naturally curly hair (I'm 3c for the most part). I have been taking tons of supplements and for the last month I've been co-washing daily. Here are my results:

I take:
MSM - 1000 mg (2-4 a day - I haven't been consistent but at usually at least 2 a day)
Biotin - (5,000 mcg - twice a day)
Silica (Horsetail - I purchased from Vitamin Shoppe 1 -day)
Viviscal or Marine Collagen (I just switched back to Nature's Gate Marine Collagen - I take 2 a day)
Vitol Ener-g vitamins (2 a day)
I will not be flatironing or using any thing in my hair other than Eco-gel and conditioner on my bun (what I've done the last month) until May 2013. I still can't believe the results for just one month. In the photo my hair from Dec is curled the one from November is flatironed completely straight.
ETA:
This was my hair from March 2012 before breakage:
