It soften my hair and I want to go back to use it consistently because my texture has turned very coarse and unimaginable.@larry3344 what has been your experience with msm?
I haven't taken it since 2005...i don't remember the results
Which brand did you use. Basically that’s what I want too.I took MSM for a couple of months in 2010 and then slacked off. It did make my curl pattern a bit more defined but less tang-ly..so more manageable and easier to comb.
I've just started MSM again last week for knee pain so I'm looking forward to the hair benefits.
I was using the Holland and Barrett brand. But they were a chore to swallow and I hated that.Which brand did you use. Basically that’s what I want too.
The thing is I wanted to make sure the effects are longterm and the time it takes to kick in as well as the brands that the ladies have had the best result. @LonDone
The poster above said it took about 9 months to start noticing a difference in her roots.I bought the doctors brand and add it to my morning tea, coffee or smoothie. I may not be using enough and it’s been about two months. The doctors beand is the powder and it comes with a scooper.
I used MSM early in my hair journey when I was working diligently to fill in bald spots and regrow edges ravaged by 30 yrs of relaxers and inadequate haircare.
MSM in conjunction with hyaluronic acid and essential oil treatments did the job! I need to get back to that.
This too is my problem. Crown hair loss due to medications wrecked havoc to my body. Were you applying the hyaluronic acid directly to scalp? Ps share your regimen. Thanks
which brand of hyaluronic acid are you using?I believe meds & vitamins work best from.the inside out so I was taking MSM & hyaluronic acid in pill form.
The essential oil treatment (also dubbed The Hayes Treatment) was topical and applied everyday while I was in braids or twists.
Is the msm you are using combined with chondroitin and glucosamine Sulfate or is it pure msm? How much msm is in the capsule? Thanks in advance.Update: I finish my sunfood msm I am on the next bottle it’s a different brand called prairie naturals. Continued to take the vitamin e capsule. Two weeks in and I have noticeable new growth. It feels a little softer but hard to tell. Will keep updating until I reach 1 year mark and do a comparison.
Powdered msm and they are all optimsm. Not combined chondroitin nor glucosamineIs the msm you are using combined with chondroitin and glucosamine Sulfate or is it pure msm? How much msm is in the capsule? Thanks in advance.
- OptiMSM® (methylsulfonylmethane)with Chondroitin & Glucosamine sulfate
- Or just
- OptiMsM

Now that I've started again, I've switched to powder from Amazon (Vegavero) which is apparently purer and easier to take and I feel it working already. I've also started on a VERY low dosage. I started a few days ago and I already noticed my baby hair laying down a bit better
In the past I took Ultra Botanicals and several years ago I recall confirming it had the OptiMSM certification. I preferred it over other brands due to the high content of MSM per scoop (4gr). ~2 years ago I switched to Dr's Best and Jarrows . Ultra Botanicals is now Emerald and I don't see an OptiMSM label on the container. Also, it's not listed on the list of OptiMSM retailers
