This is a common misconception: prenatal vitamins do NOT make your hair grow faster anymore than taking regular vitamins would. The hormonal changes during pregnancy sometimes make a woman`s hair grow faster. It has nothing to do with taking vitamins, which are simply taken to ensure a healthy mother and child. Here is a link to a site debunking this myth: http://www.hair-news.com/hair-grow-faster.shtml

Hope this helps! :-)

Vitamins which promote healthy hair, skin, and nails.

Hair Vitamins: I like GNC`s Ultra Nourishair or GNC’s NourishHairis probably one of the best I have seen.

MSM:
Helps to decrease hair fall out. It does this by assisting in making the growth stage of the hair longer. The longer you are able to retain the root, the longer you hair will grow.

Silica:
Helps your hair be soft and shiny.

Evening Primrose:
It has several benefits of which I will only name a few. Some of the benefits are reducing PMS, clearing up eczema, helping your skin glow, minimize fine wrinkles, reduce cholesterol, help with your metabolism, and cure hair and nail problems. It helps nourish straw-like hair. You should see results with Evening Primrose as early as 2 weeks of daily consumption. Your scalp should feel less dry and the hair growing in should feel softer and more nourished.

Flaxseed Oil:
Must be taken with Evening Primrose, same benefits.

Biotin:
Now biotin is what really can boost your hair growth. Skin, nails, and hair rely on biotin to grow. So, if we feed our bodies more biotin, then our skin will look better, and our nails will be stronger, and our hair will grow faster and stronger.
