I got some supplements at Target called "Hair, Skin, & Nails." I just started taking it but it seems to be the same thing. I did notice that I can't take it on an empty stomach or it makes me really nauseated, but all vitamins do that to me. I'll let you guys know if it starts working.

I just wanted to say, THESE PILLS ARE AWESOME!!! Supposedly, hair only grows up to six inches a year. But in the past six months my hair has grown a little over 4 inches (taking 2 pills a day.) I can't wait to see it after a year. Not only has it grown faster, but it's been stronger & shinier as well. I would've never known about these magical pills if it weren't for SW, so a big fat thanks to everyone :)

O.K, I bigged them up before but now I'm pissed. Not only are these pills making my hair grow like 3 times as fast (Yay), it's also making hair everywhere ELSE grow at the same rate (Nay). I'm blunting razors like every 3 days now on my armpits, legs and privates when I used to be able to shave every 2-3 days only. Now I have to shave every night.
Also in abotu 6 hours after I've done my legs I can already feel new stubble comming through.

The word must be out about these. I went to Walmart today (ugh!) to get a vaccuum cleaner bag, and figured I'd grab a couple of bottles of hair pills while I was there. Guess what? Sold out! The slot where they go was empty! The tag with the name/price was still there, so I assume that they're not discontinuing carrying them or anything, but 0 bottles!
I was so pi$$ed! Now I'll have to go back to WalMart in a few weeks >:(

Just checked at a local WalMart in Tampa. Found them for $3.47 each which isn't that much more than buying them directly from the company website. Not bad so I bought a few bottles. Hope it works! :)

Yeppers, you found the down side, lol.

Well you could always save up for a week or so and take off work and get waxed! That's what I'm going to be doing soon, I hate to shave, but I love my hair growth.

When I figure out how to put my pics onto my desktop pc (and not just my lap top) I'll show some after pics, lol. The ones when I had short hair are long gone after the nasty virus I had on this bad boy.

Ok the first one is me with my hair pulled up where it used to be cut to. And the second one is how long it is now and I got my hair cut ear short (1st pic) in March of last year.

*Please be gentle, I look awful in these pics, lol. No makeup, and I just woke up a little while ago.

Wow, so Kitana it grew that much? Holy crap. How many did you take each day?

I know milk helps hair grow too, but I hate it. Eck.

Wow Kitana. That's fast!

I'm hoping that my hair grows quickly to my waist. So far it's to the middle of my back. Hoping it grows faster and faster LOL

Well it says to take one a day but, I take one when I wake up, and another one when I go to bed.

Yeah I love this stuff.

My hair normally only grows about 6 inches a year, and it has already grown almost a foot in a little less than a year.

I can't say enough good things about it, lol!

Damn, I am ordering some today!

I need to grow my hair like, a foot or so this next year. I know it's wishful thinking for me (since my hair grows so SLOW), but I'm trying to grow my natural hair out again. (I'm mixed, my hair is frizzy and curly and REALLY thin, but THICK).

I might just use a kiddy chemical relaxer on my hair just to tame it a bit, and use hair to make my hair grow faster.

I think I'm also going to use this thing called "Doo Gro" that they sell at Black hair shops, and maybe wrap it at night in these growth treated scarves that they sell. I just need to do everything to further the growth. I think it grows about a 1/2 inch a month, but since it breaks off, it doesn't seem like THAT much.

I take 1 in the AM and 1 in PM also. You go through them faster, but it works!
My stylist didn't believe how much my hair had grown when I saw her.

Kitana,

Thank you so much for posting your pictures. Your hair is really long. I was inspired to buy 4 bottles. I will post some before and after pictures in a few months. Some idiot stylist went scissor-happy and chopped my waist-length hair to just below my shoulders. I won't even mention how stupid my bangs look. I have to grow all this out.

For those of you who have been taking them for a while, would you post pictures? Pretty please?

My hair before it was butchered was about 3" longer than it is in the picture. Hopefully I can get back to that length by the fall. The second picture is what it looks like now.

Take a look at the forum at www.blackhairmedia.com (http://www.blackhairmedia.com). It may have some good recomendations regarding everything haircare.

I'm in shock, I have been taking these pills for 3weeks
and my hair has grown an inch. I took a month off of
work, and went back yesterday and the girls all wondered
if I had a wig on because my hair was so much longer.
My nair are like fake nails there so strong

I've been taking the pills for about six weeks (2/day of the hair pill + 2/day of 1000 mcg Biotin, also from Wal-mart), and I can tell by my unhighlighted roots that my hair has grown about an inch...and I have very hard-to-grow hair. Also, even though I haven't been taking my joint supplements, I've noticed my knees no longer hurt at work.

The ones I got at Target, which are called "Hair, Skin & Nails," don't seem to be working as well. I'll keep taking them for another couple of weeks, and then go by Wal-Mart when I get home to Memphis. It's easier to get to than the one nearest me in L.A. I am of the opinion that a woman's hair (especially mine!) can never be long enough, as long as it's healthy.

I used to be able to sit on my hair, but it was brittle and frizzy. Now that it's grown back strong and healthy, I'd love to have it that long again. I LOVE long, soft, sexy hair.

I take those in addition to the Wal-Mart hair pills. I take 2 of the Hair, Skin & Nails and 1 of the Wal-Mart in the AM and 1 of just the Wal-Mart in the PM before bed. My hair has grown a lot, and my nails are so nice! I don't know if it is the combo or either of the pills in particular, but don't give up on those just yet! Maybe take them with the Wal-Mart and see if you get results.

Thanks! I'll try that.

I have to take mine with meals. If I take this vitamin first thing in the morning, I get really nauseated. So I've been taking one or two a day, trying to have one with every meal.

I tried those first, and they didn't do much if any to help the growth. I stayed on those for about 2 months, and I got maybe an inch and a half.

I love the Hair pills.

An inch and a half? That's 50% more growth than the average person. How fast does your hair usually grow?

we should all be getting royalties for our rave reviews. 8)

Sooner or later, the bottle will be labeled with this.

ha, lizette! seriously it should have that label. i've told about 10 people about it and that i heard of it from here!

i just started taking them a few weeks ago...i think my hair is growing faster. i'm hoping they will grow me some eyebrows too.

Well it usually grows between 5 and 6 inches a year, so they did help a little.

But the Wal-Mart Hair pills have made it grow about a foot in a little less than a year, which for me is double.

The hair skin and nails, wich did work, didn't work as well as the pills I take now.

chynadoll- thanx for the tip...i really want my hair to grow like down to my elbows...youre gonna have all of us on those pills! lol...u think its unhealthy to take 2 a day instead of one? i think im gonna do that too. oh yeah- how long before you started noticing it was growing?

What else is recommened in speeding hair growth?

I ordered some hair vitamins, but what else can I take to grow it faster?

This stuff has drastically improved my hair and made it grow a bit quicker I think. It is a lot more shinny and I am noticing I seem to be shedding less of it.

MulattoKitten

I don't think two a day would hurt you, but of course I am no doctor either.

Vitamins are passed through your body if your body doesn't need them.

Paintbaby

Gotta watch vitamin A though. It is fat soluble, meaning it is stored in your body's fatty tissue. Too much vitamin A results in vomiting, nausea, and potential liver damage.

For the most part hair grows faster in warmer months! And most people only grow half an inch a month. I seem to grow an inch a month! Been very lucky!

I have tried the hair pills (different kinds) way back with this thread, and my heart raced. So all i do is take my womens day Multi. During period time with extra Iron! After period, extra Calcium!

I flip my head over my knees, and do deep scalp massages! I don't wash everyday, i hot oil alot!

I think the main thing here is (as i talked to my derm. about this) when you take vitamins your hair starts to grow a thicker strand that, first makes the hair look thicker! Second helsp it along the way for NOT splitting near as easily as a thin strand. So the hair is able to take heat better, longer. And grows thicker and does not split up the shaft as easily!

These pills Can NOT make the hair grow faster! Ask your doc. Your just growing in better quality healthy hair!!!!
Makes a big difference. Less trimmings etc.

Actually, that's not true. Of course hair will be healthier, but having no vitamin deficiencies may (or may not) make your hair grow faster. It's quite possible.

Pamela
01-09-2006, 12:16 PM
I understand what you say! But there is no scientific proof that ANY vitamins make hair grow faster! What they do is make the hair grow in healthier, which results in a thicker stronger strand that will not break easily. This results in healthy hair, which makes the shafts stay longer, longer!

You know if you have weak hair, it breaks off, resulting in hair that seems not to grow, because it keeps snapping off at the root, or the ends are very thin, weak and break off, i.e. shorter hair.

Vitamins help along with diet achieve healthy hair that gives us thicker strands that will be able to handle harsh treatment longer!

Our hair still goes through it's resting phase, and fall out. We just don't notice all this normal process because we have healthier hair!

ANY vitamin (multi) will help hair and nails be healthier!

The ads say longer stronger healthier hair.....They have too! :)

PS, i said in the other thread hair grows faster in warmer weather...simply because the resting and falling stage our more abundant in the colder weather!

That's true. Our hair is basically constantly growing ALL the time, so vitamins if nothing else make it stronger. So, I guess even if this stuff doesn't make your hair grow like a weed, at least it'll make it stronger.

kitana
01-09-2006, 05:03 PM
Well, w/o these pills I know I wouldn't have the lenght I have right now.

Wether it actually made my hair physically longer (since I don't eat like I should), or it just made it stronger and looks better and longer since it's healthier I don't care either way.

What I do know is it worked for me. How it worked, I don't care, lol.

fancygirl
01-16-2006, 07:23 PM
hmm. I've actually noticed longer hair, and less tangles--not necessarily thicker.
I understand what ya'all say about breakage, but I don't think that could account for hair length, unless my hair was breaking a ton before.

MulattoKitten

I really hope I can grow mine like, 7 inches in these next 7 months.
Hell, even 4 would make me happy as hell.

These pills make hair grow like a weed for sure otherwise what accounts for the noticeable ridiculously rapid hair growth on my legs and bikini area? My hair on my head takes twice as long to blow out all the new growth since I first started using these too.

I thought I really wanted longer hair but I'm rapidly changing my mind as its just too much work. Didn't know having so much hair would be so much work.
Maybe it's not everyone. Maybe I'm having bad side effects.

How many inches would you say? Still waiting for them, I'm kind of hoping I'll be getting them today!

How many do you take a day?

Well, my hair grows terribly slow, and I have noticed a HUGE difference since taking these. My hair and nails both are growing faster, my nails look great - nice and shiny and strong. I have also noticed that the hair on my legs grows faster, like the other posters mentioned.

Mullatokitten: I started out taking 2 a day but I was going through razors like anything so have now cut down to 1 a day.
My hair is naturally dark brown and I dye it with a black temporary dye. I notice how much it grows a month because of the regrowth and it's approximately an inch.

I'm so glad other people are having the same horrible effects.

MulattoKitten
01-18-2006, 08:13 AM
That's probably what I'll do, take two a day until my hair grows to what I want it to be (I hate the fact that I'll have to shave like a fiend, but oh well). I also need to grow my eyebrows back >.< lol I have a mishap awhile ago, and they look so bad while they're growing back I keep shaving them off. So maybe this'll help me grow those back too lol

I ordered like 6 bottles for 30 bucks.

I'd be like, extactic if my hair grew an inch a month! How much did your hair grow before? I guess mine grows about 1/2 an inch or a little less but I get trims every 6 weeks (about a 1/4 of an inch or less) so it seems less.

You said it grows 1 inch a month, how much di dit grow before you started taking the vitamins?

circe221
01-19-2006, 02:34 PM
Another side effect I have noticed is that my hair is curlier/wavier. It is naturally wavy, but even more so since taking these, which is not necessarily a good thing. When I want to straighten it, it takes longer now, which I am not thrilled about, :P but it has grown, so it's worth it!
