Re: My friend\'s hair has grown like crazy!!!!!......

I've been taking L-cycstine since reading this post for about three months now. I have tremendous growth but I don't whether to attribute that to the L-cycstine, eating pineapples every single day, or eat carrots all the time. I started doing all 3 at the same time.

On of these things is making my hair grow. But I recommend L-cystine.
 
Re: My friend\'s hair has grown like crazy!!!!!......

I tried L-cysteine for about 3 months with no visible changes. Surge is the only thing that has worked to increase my hair growth rate.
 
Re: My friend\'s hair has grown like crazy!!!!!......

L-cysteine can act as an antioxidant, may prevent liver diseases, and can help to thicken the individual diameters of existing hair if taken regularly.

I wonder if L-cysteine is as effective, or more effective, in thickening hair strands than panthenol/pantothenic acid? Hmmm.... <img src="http://st1m.longhaircareforum.com/images/smilies/think.gif" alt="" />

okay, I got tired of eating the pineapples and carrots and I still got growth so.... it the L-cystine and the Biotin creme.
 
I'm a little worried about possible side effects of taking L-cysteine. Has anyone taking L-cysteine noticed that L-cysteine causes an increase in hair growth other than the hair on your head? i.e. legs, upper lip
 
After reading Corbin's thread, I may give L-Cysteine another try and take 2000mg a day instead of 500mg...that's once I get some more money!!! :weird:

Where's the cheapest place to buy this stuff? I've only seen L-Cysteine at Whole Foods Market where I got it the first time I took it...Does WalMart sell this stuff for cheap?

Unless, they've changed it, L-Cysteine is not in HF37. L-Cystine is in HF37. Although both are beneficial to hair, it is my understanding that they are not really the same amino acid. I could be wrong, but I believe that the mg of L-Cystine in step two they list is for the entire day/dosage of 4-6 pills, not per pill. I am taking amino acids from the vitamin shoppe and it lists the dosage as 5 pills per day and gives the total mg. It is not per pill either, but for most of the amino acids I am getting 2 to 3 times more mg than what is in the HF37 dosages. My pills are much larger though, but they don't make me sick like the HF37 did. :)

Yeah, L-Cysteine is different than L-Cystine. I think you have to be even more cautious with taking L-Cystine. I remember doing research about L-Cysteine and came across L-Cystine and they are different amino acids. ;)
 
Info about L-Cysteine...

Why is L-Cysteine Important?

The largest single element found in the composition of the hair is L-Cysteine. L-Cysteine is one ingredient your hair cannot do without. Without L-Cysteine, you could grow no hair on your head at all.
Unfortunately, today's over-processed and over-refined foods do not supply sufficient amounts of L-Cysteine to keep your hair healthy and strong.

L-Cysteine for Hair Growth

The amino acid, L-Cysteine speeds up hair growth and increases hair shaft diameter resulting in fuller hair. L-Cysteine has been reported to facilitate longer hair growth, beyond what is genetically programmed.
L-Cysteine also provides potent antioxidant protection to the hair follicle. Users of topical n-acetyl-cysteine have reported hair regrowth.
