I highly suggest checking out Kaitlyn M's "why hair pills are dangerous " thread, which is a couple threads below this one. Consult a doctor before you try anything vitamin related, or any pills/drugs in general.

There is a picture of my hair from the back, and I didn't use biotin to grow it. If anyone is interested in seeing my progress without taking pills. It's been right over a year since I cut my hair. It was right at the start of the bra connector on my back, and in the front, it came to right above my chest. Now, a year later, with cutting over 3 inches off in march, I have grown it to be 4-5 inches away from hitting my butt and it's way past my chest now. 😊

Awe that's so sad, but it's good that the hospital was able to fix everything. And it's especially good that she has no long term problems! 🙌

Kaitlin M.
Haha I would be the same way! 😂 but I hope everyone looks at the picture of my hair on my profile, it's proof that biotin isn't needed!

I don't recommend it. I took it wanting for it to make my hair grow longer. It didn't. It made me feel weak. And it also made me break out super bad!!

Jocelyne, I'm so sorry to hear! It made me so hungry, I would eat like crazy. I threw it away. That's how I got into my research. I hope your skin is better and I hope you feel better too!

I took it for a while, I bought a big bottle from the store when I was desperate to grow out my hair and I heard it helps. Luckily, I didn't get any side effects, but I didn't notice it growing any faster than usual which was a disappointment 😒 I took it ritually every night before I went to bed til the bottle ran out, there must've been 100-200 capsules, and still no faster hair growth.

It works more for my nails vs my hair. But that's just my experience
