Long hair she don't care

So, I got a Biotin supplement from my local pharmacy two days ago to help my hair grow longer, faster, and healthier! One tablet supplies 333% of your daily Biotin reccomendation (about 3x!)! I'm excited and hoping this works, after many of you suggested I try it out. Thoughts? Anyone else out there see fast growing hair results after using it?

    I've never heard of this, but I do have MegaTek, which was originally made for pets, but it works and is safe of human hair, too. I haven't used it on my whole head, but I put it on around my hairline, and I've had hair growth of a few inches in a few months. Just hair from nowhere! Check it out on Amazon.

    Thanks for the tip! I def need to check that out. I'm hoping to have my hair about chest length by summertime :-) In July I cut off 11 inches to donate to Locks of Love, but after having long hair for so long, I kinda miss it and want it back! Haha, it was nice to be able to donate, though. I like helping others.

    I take biotin to try n make my hair thicker. It's longer than I like but I haven't had it cut for awhile. In fact it's been bout a year. So I don't think it's done anything @ all to improve it.

    Check out a website called the Long Hair Community if you haven't already. Lots of info and advice for people with long hair and for people growing it out.

    Mine was really long before I cut it, too. It was down to my waist in the back. Then I went on spring break in Florida and the humidity made me so frustrated with my hair, so within the hour of getting back home I cut like 6-7 inches off. I miss it terribly.

    What can I take to make my hair STOP growing? I like it short and hair cuts are expensive.

    Just for the record, don't bother trying to get the highest RDA possible in a vitamin, because any excess water-soluble vitamins (like Biotin) flush right through your body, so you're literally flushing money down the toilet by getting the types with a super high RDA percentage.
