Vitamin Check-In (and pics)

Biotin, MSM, whatever it is...can you please tell me what you are taking and how long and if you think it has really been a contributor to strong hair, thick hair, or hair growth? I really appreciate your help, ladies.

Here is a link to my hair journal as well. I left it public for today only, though (I'm shy).

It looks like your hair grew 2 inches in 2 months.

The only thing I'm taking right now is Women's One A Day multi, and a b-complex supplement. It contains 100mcg of biotin, and my hair & nails have been growing extremely fast. When I was taking MSM regularly, it seemed to make my hair very thick.

Super Hair Energizer Vitamins...I've been taking them on and off (because I have to order them online) since November 2003. They work fairly well.

After I finish my bottles up, Im going to switch to using Naturemade Super B-Complex (something I can buy locally).

Forgive me for being nosey but which b-complex are you currently taking? I am also on Atkins and wonder if that is making a difference. My diet changed drastically from cookies to veggies! LOL.

Spring Valley Balanced B-100. I've been taking it for about 3 weeks, and had a huge growth spurt where my hair grew more than an inch in a short period of time. (I hope these growth spurts continue all summer).

I take GNC Flax Seed Oil, Ultra Mega Woman, and MSM. I was also taking Biotin (stopped b/c breakouts). My hairline is the strongest and longest it's been in awhile. My hair has always substantially grown back from a hair cut in a fair amount of time so the real test is when I get back to shoulder length.

Greatness, which MSM manufacturer? GNC?

 

[greAtness333]

Hi LG! Yes they're all GNC.

 

[Lorraine]

Thank you, Greatness! I might have to make a visit to GNC.

Your welcome

I figured getting all GNC products would be easier with their discount savings card.
