I have been trying to grow my hair for 2 years. I have not noticed a change either. Even my hair stylist has not noticed any changed, we tried everything, braids, sew-ins, even quick weaves. (I am not fond of hair glue) I do take a vitamin that I purchase at GNC "Nourish Hair" but nothing seems to help. I even went so far as asking people on the street, "What products do you use in your hair to make it grow" All I want to do is wear my own hair at a good length. I am tired of weave, besides I am getting a little to old for it too. I had to leave my hair dresser because I could not afford to go anylonger, so I have been doing my hair myself. Would some one please tell me what I am doing wrong, or what products I should use.
O yeah I use carrot oil and olive oil products only.

HI cmorgan,
I recently had my almost waist length hair hacked by an over zealous hair stylist. It is at best just above my bra straps in the back and on the sides it is almost shoulder length. I am telling you this because as soon as I stopped crieing, I did a search on the internet for faster hair growth. I also am already takeing a hair vitamin, but i want something better. I came across a product called hair formula 37. I just recieved mine last week, 7 days ago, so I can not tell you what is has done for me. I can tell you that it is supposed to do wonders for the growth rate, thickness and overall health of you hair. I know it is doing something because my nails have taken off. About 3 weeks ago, I broke two of my nails down to the skin .They both have now over 1/4 of an inch in white tip. I hope this helps.

HI, Debbie,
It has been about six weeks now since I started taking HF37. I can honestly say that I love this stuff!!!
 My hair has grown 2 inches! I measured it when it was first cut, and the sides were at 19 in, the back at 27in. I measured right now, and the sides were at 21 and the back at 29. My mom has ordered it and I have told everyone I know about it. All of my friends have made coments abou how my looks longer, and a couple of them are thinking about treiing it. Me hair normally grows slightly faster than average, but nothing like this.
I will say that I am normally pretty healthy, and take a lot of nutritional supplements. I read on the HF37 testamonials about a gal that said she takes alot of vitamins and such, so she did not notice a big difference in her hair, until she started to take more of the amino acids.
So, right off the bat, I started off with more aminos. Hair is made of protein, amino acids is basically protein. You are supposed to take one step one and three step two twice a day. I have been doing that, plus taking three step two at lunch. The testamonial I read said that her hair took off when she started to do this. Mine has also. There are over 4 pages of testamonials about HF37, all of them saying things like this.That is what sold me.
My energy has improved greatly, also!!I am now on my second month, and I plan on continueing to take it for a very long time.
Sorry for such a long post, I hope this has helped you some. If you have anymore questions, please feel free to ask.

Glad I could help. I agree, it would be a great present to yourself! I teach preschool, and one of the moms there has hair that is very, very thin and just won't hardly grow. She has extensions right now, but I think she might try it also. She is waiting to see how I do on it. In fact I kind of have a few people matching to see how it affects my hair.
I believe it IS worth its weight in gold for anyone who has slow growth, thin hair, or like myself, had a hir dresser butch your hair.Let me know how you do if you start taking it. I would like to let my preschool mom know.

I work in a lab so i ran all the typical tests that would cause hair loss and they all were normal. I have always had slooooooow growing thin thin hair and yes I am in my 50's so I am guessing it is getting a bit thinner as I age - which is why I am trying to find something to get it to grow more now. The products on the market are getting better and better all the time.

There actually a product that HairBoutique.com founder Karen Shelton created called Hairtopia. It is superior to H37 for many reasons and actually costs less. I used to take H37 but it is tablets and hard to swallow. Studies have shown tablets take much longer to break down in the digestion than capsules. Hairtopia also includes ingredients that H37 does not have and it has niacidimide which causes less risk of flushing while H37 does cause flushing from niacin. I had problems with flushing on H37 besides the larger tablet sizes. Hairtopia is capsules and can be opened and poured into juice or protein drinks, which I actually do because tabs are hard for me to swallow.
I have been taking the product from 6 months with fantastic results. One downside is that Hairtopia may at times be hard to get because they run short production cycles to guarantee that the product is never more than 14-21 days old when it is shipped to customers. This is very rare according to what my nutritionist told me. She said many vits will sit on shelves for up to 2-3 years which causes slow deterioation of the product value. They will prove the mfg dates if you ask and they are always just days or weeks old. I have called and asked them from time to time.
Hairtopia is also less expensive than H37 and I like the fact that the developer of the product actually has been taking it herself for years. She also has hair 5 inches below her waist. The proof that the product works is overwhelming. Just wanted to let you all know that there are other options out on the market that may actually work better for some of you and save you some money in your pocketbook.

hmmm hairtopia..... sounds good. I was going to try the other one but I am out of work at the moment and didnt want to spend the money. Does it make your hair thicker too? Or just longer?
