Supplements for hair growth.

So I'm quickly getting bored of having really short hair. Main reason being it doesn't matter how good I style it, when I wake in the morning it looks like a burst couch. It's not on. After looking into it I read that the average persons hair grows at 0.5mm per day, and after working that out it would take me an entire year from now to regain seven inches *sob*

Anyway, does anyone take supplements/vits to aid hair growth, or have you done so in the past? What did you use and how did it affect you? As of yesterday I'm back on the KLB6, great wee concoction from holland and barett. It helps growth in general and aids weight shifting too.

Cheers

Jelly, apparently, so my grandomther says. Although, your nails may grow at an extraordinary rate too!

Re: Supplements for hair growth.

I read somewhere for fast hair & nail growth you should take the supplements designed for pregnant women. I'm not sure which ones specifically, but maybe one of the combined supplements Boots sell?


Don't take my advice though

I know Boots sell a Healthy Hair & Nails supplement but it's not on the site. I always meant to try it cos my hair takes ages to grow as well.

Re: Supplements for hair growth.

Hair is basically made from amino acids so eating plenty of protein may help, including the Gelatin in Jelly. That's assuming theres a connection between hair growth and protein consumption.

Re: Supplements for hair growth.

Isn't zinc also supposed to be good for hair and nails?
Could always pop into Boots and ask the pharmacist desk there, they've answered every random query I've ever had about stuff like this.
