Once I reach my goal I will cut back, for now, grow on hair grow on!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've been into this "hair thing" for years...I think since 04 or 05. At first, I was all abou the "growth aides", but I don't really buy into that stuff anymore. I am more about HEALTHY hair, b/c that's what grows. I look at it like this...if I'm taking Biotin, MSM, using BT, smearing coochie cream on my scalp...but frying my hair with the flat iron daily, sleeping with it uncovered, keeping it as dry as a tumbleweed, and relaxing every 3 weeks...will my hair grow? No. But if I cut out heat, stretch my relaxers, moisturize and protect my hair but take no vitamins and smear no goop, etc...will my hair grow? Yes.
I said all this to say that I eventually stopped using them. After awhile, it gets old. You will tire of it just like PJism. Find a consistent healthy hair routine and stick with that. That's the key IMO. Only my advice though.
I often wonder when it gets to the point were you dont have to use growth aids will you hair go down hill, like will your hair start growing thin again?
I initially used MTG as a growth aid, but stopped because I was too lazy to be consistent and can't wear it when I want flowing hair. I still have some MTG left and use it when I have dandruff but that's about it. I don't really use MTG or anything else as growth aids anymore. Although it stinks, MTG is great for dry scalp! I do take vitamin, but don't consider them growth aids because that's never been my purpose for taking them.
I found growth aids to be more hype then help honestly. I guess I could be proven wrong, but I figure if there was a magic potion that really makes hair grow like a Chia Pet, then it would be sold on an infomercial, making the inventor into a multi-trillionaire!
Since I have come to realize that my hair grows anyway, and that the real challenge is keeping what I already have, I don't take growth aides of any sort. I do protective styling, and wet my hair as often as I want to, and only comb my hair when it is wet. There is more, but answering the question.... no growth aides for me.

yup yup!
me I will always take my vitamins and keep my nutrition regimen going not for my hair alone but for all the health benefits as well
I use Flintstones multi-vitamin; however, I don't use them as a growth aid. I will admit that they help in growth, but I use it for health reasons.
