Normally I use flaxseed oil, and I have noticed that my skin is much better and I don't itch as much as I use to. I have eczema, and that was the reason I started taking it in the first place. I just bought a bottle of fish oil last week and I am waiting until I run out of my flaxseed oil to use them. I imagine you would get the same results as it is a good source of Omega-3's.

I just starte staking flaxseed oil, which has the same omega fatty acids.
Many people say that they make the hair softer, more moist, and shinier.

I think someone made a thread about it the other day.

I take a EPA-GLA supplement that contains fish oil, star flower oil and lecithin. I noticed that my hair is definitely softer and moister since using it.

yes it will take time for you to notice it since it only affects the new growth coming in not the hair thats already on your head. I would say everyone should give it 6 months to a year, depending on your growth rate.

Hiya

I've been taking Fish Oil for over a year now. I originally strated taking it for hair growth/health (when I saw the amount of improved growth I got from eating fish neartly everyday)... but I'm not sure if I've noticed a dramatic change...I still take it, but moreso for improved brain function/ metabolism etc. My reasoning is that even if it doesn't work directly for my hair, it's working for my body which in turn will produce healthy hair
