Eating healthy is the first step to growing long hair.  A basic multi-vitamin is always good.  Some other supplements that might help include MSM, biotin and silica.

Have you heard about Anacaps by Ducray? They were recommended to me by my pharmacist. But I don't really know yet. I would really like to know about some good supplement. If I like the results on this one, I'll let you know all.

I take a regular, off the shelf hair/skin/nail supplement and I think it helps a lot!  A prenatal vitamin is also great for growing healthy hair, as is eating your recommended dosage of fruits and veggies.  I've noticed the healthier I eat, the better my hair looks and feels.

I heard that prenatal vitamins make your hair grow faster. Is that possible?

Prenatal vitamins are about the same as regular vitamins, except for the price. Save your money and read the labels.

If there's a particular vitamin you want more of, they're available individually.

Pregnant women's hair grows faster because of hormones, whether or not they take special vitamins.

Thanks for the relpy ;)

Since there's already a thread about vitamins I thought I'd post here instead of making a new thread. Now, I know a lot of you take vitamins in addition to a healthy diet to help keep not only hair, skin and nails healthy, but also the rest of your body. I've been taking a pretty basic vitamin with all sorts of basic things in it, but I think i'd like to try something different. I'd be open to any suggestions that might be available.

Hiiii...This topic is also in "The Long Locks Lounge". I asked a very similiar question in a post entitled "hmmm". Juri also has a good post about hair supplements. You may find those posts helpful. :) Good luck.
