you would not believe what i just discovered? in a previous thread i told you ladies that i was taking 2500mcg of Biotin but i had to stop because it was making me itch. I started taking it this past sunday and stopped today. A while ago while taking a shower i noticed long strands of hair on both my shoulders. i was shocked, but what was more shocking was the two strands of hair growing out of my nipple. I almost passed out.:eek: I then came out of the shower and decided to do a body check. i had a long strand under my neck and one on each cheek. i've never had hair on my body other than in the usually places(arm, leg, underarm,pubic area) imagine if i would of continued, i would have been a hairy beast within a month.

PS. feel free to laugh because my hubby and i sure did have a good one.

OK! :lachen: :lol:

Didnt know Biotin was powerful like that. :perplexed
 
Lol sassy. I read somewhere that your hair likes biotin and zinc and just to take a normal vitamin to make sure you get some.
Okay I found it:


[size=-1]A few things that you can do to ensure that your hair follicles remain healthy and your hair is undamaged, are:[/size]

[size=-1]1. Take an inexpensive daily multi vitamin such as 'One-A-Day' or even 'Flintstones.' Your hair likes zinc and biotin and both of the above mentioned vitmins contain ample amounts of these. Don't waste your hard earned money on 'super vitamins.' Your body only requires so many vitamins per day and simply discharges the excess. You can't put twenty gallons in a ten gallon tank. In some instances, over dosing on supplements can actually be fatal.[/size]

[size=-1]2. Do not over brush your hair. With every stroke you damage your hair more. Brush only as much as you need to style the hair, then stop.[/size]

[size=-1]3. Buy a good quality brush or comb without sharp plastic or metal ridges. This is one of the common factors leading to split ends, as is over brushing.[/size]

[size=-1]5. Don't constrict your hair with tight bands, hats, braids and the like. These also lead to split ends and hair breakage.[/size]

OMG sassy:lol: I am so not going to buy biotin lol after hearing that. I think I'm going to make sure I get some but not too much.

I was taking like 3800 up until Thursday because I notice that no matter what I did I was itching too so I just take one pill that is 1,000 mgs and a muli vitamin
 
I take a 0.300mg biotin supplement. Not sure if it's doing me any good but i figure rather some than none. I was too scared to try out a 1000mg.

By the sounds of things i may be taking the right precautions lol.
 
OMG:lachen: i crack myself up everytime i read this.

on another note: anancy do you think we were overdosing our self? i was just taking one pill with 2500mcg. in a way other than the hairy affect it made my nails grow. and guess what they are hard. usually if my nails grow they grow soft and break. and i was only taking the pills for 3 days.i went from having nubbs to having some. they won't last. i'm biting them as i type(i'm an addict) i will try them again. maybe something less than 1000mcg.
