Re: help needed hair loss!!
Hey, this may help:
okay so I just wanna say I am taking Biotin, its a vitamin, and it strengthens a protein called KERATIN which is what your hair/nails/skin us made up of. And after reading several reviews on Biotin, I decided to buy some and I already see some new hair growth!
Start off with 1000 mcg, and eventually aim to go til 5000 mcg. I've read several reviews on it and people say how their nai;s & hair grow so fast. Just google "Biotin reviews" and you'll see. I am so excited, I mean I've ben taking it for two weeks and my nails are growing so fast! And of course my hair, I have extreme thinning (and when I say that I mean I literally cannot PART my hair) , its all due to my stupid decision to permanently straighten my hair via chemical methods, biggest mistake of my life. =/
So, I decided to start taking a multi-vitamin, Omega-3 fatty acids & OF COURSE...Biotin. I take 2000 mcg.
It's available everywhere, I got mine from Costco. I seriously would reccomend it to EVERYONE who has hair loss or has thinning out hair or even someone who's hair/nails grow slow.
Of course it takes time to notice results...on an averege the person who saw AMAZING results was taking atleast 5000 MCG and for atleast 3 months. So even though I still cant part my hair and the thinning is scary looking (THANK GOD I have curly hair so the volume comes in handy to conceal most of the thinning) I'm gonna slowly increase my strength of Biotin (like I said, I'm currently taking 2000 mcg, will eventually increase it 5000 mcg) and I have faith this will work.
I honestly dont know why this isn't a well known vitamin.
sigh
So happy I found out about this. =)
