Country Life Maxi-Hair Skin & Nails, 2,000 mcg Biotin, 60 Tablets

Seriously ladies (and gents perhaps), hair will grow everywhere hair grows. Just not sure if it is really helping the hair on my head grow. I used to be able to shave my legs every other to every two days, now I am shaving them every single day. My nails already grow fast, but I have notice that they are a bit stronger. I really have not noticed a difference with my skin though. When I run out, I do plan to repurchase however only because I did not use a ruler or anything to actually measure the hair growth on my head. For black women, it is harder to see how fast our hair grow to the naked eye because it does not grow straight. My hair does grow the average rate of 1/2 inch every month though, so it might be growing... not sure. I will have to actually find my ruler and measure it. I'm sure it is, because it is growing everywhere else at a rapid rate. I take this every morning with a women's 1aday vitamin as well, usually with orange juice. I normally do not eat right away as recommended, but I'm sure it still gets the job done one way or another. I will be updating either in a month or when I find my ruler, which ever is first. Update 8/7/2014: I just found my ruler and my hair is at 9 inches. I will do another measure update on 9/7/2014 to see where my hair is and will post my results. Update 9/8/14 (a day late... sorry) I just did a length check and I have gained an extra 1/2 inch!!! So my current length is 10 inches, up one full inch from last month! So this is a good product because it does what it says. So I changed the rating from 3 stars to 5 stars. I kept forgetting to take the supplements and my hair still grew quicker. I actually missed one full week because I started a new work schedule and just kept forgetting to take them and my hair still grew an extra 1/2 inch. I was also supposed to purchase more of this product, but I will be purchasing the other one that says 'plus' to see how fast my hair can grow with that. *Note: My hair is fully natural and I had to straighten a piece of my hair just to measure it because I could not tell that my hair grew longer with the naked eye. My hair is a combination of 4a, 4b, and 4c I believe. I use coconut oil, the Cantu with Shea butter, and sometimes gel ('black gel' by Ampro or the eco gel; olive oil (the green one)). I used the Beautiful Textures curl definer and that worked really well for my twist-outs. The coconut oil is a staple product that I use all the time, the other products are something that I am just trying. I am really just trying to find something that will work well with the textures that I have. Feel free to suggest any to me. Thanks :) I also try to use shampoo that is low in sulfates. Further, I wash my hair every other day and I rinse my hair every other day. So if I do not wash it, I rinse it. If I am not rinsing it, I am washing it. But I am at least wetting my hair everyday in the shower and conditioning it. This has helped me to retain length apparently. But of course, this is my own regimen and may not work well for others, so do what works for you. If you do not know what works for you, try it my way to see if it helps retain your length.*

I am still speechless. First, a bit of background. Following many surgeries, one pregnancy, and high levels of stress, I started to lose my hair: I am talking handfuls everyday. Over ten years, I have tried many (very) expensive supplements from Rene Fureter, Kerastase and Natrol to name a few. I have also tried Rogaine. Every shampoo was a nightmare, every brushstroke led to hair everywhere on my bathroom floor. Fewer and fewer on my scalp!. It also got much thinner. I started a hair serum by Natrol a few months back. I didn't notice much difference but it says to give it at least three months. In the meantime, I decided to opt again for supplements to "supplement" the serum (knowing that i wouldn't use it everyday because it leaves the hair greasy and i didn't want to make things worse by washing my hair everyday). I ordered Maxi-hair because I couldn't spend too much on the supplements and because it got some rave reviews. To give it a fair assessment, I have to precise that I also started to rinse my hair with a homemade apple cider vinegar-tea tree oil mix once a week. I am unsure if it is because of the rinse, the serum finally working (although I use it very irregularly), Maxi-hair alone or a combination of the three. All I can tell is that within two weeks of taking Maxi Hair, I saw a definite, striking change in my hair loss. I have very few hair in my tub after shampooing and barely any hair on the floor after brushing. I don't see yet much difference in the thickness of my hair but again it has been a month so the new hair is still short. However, if you have oily skin, it might not be for you (depending on what matters the most to you). I have started to get some bumps (like light acne) on my forehead and my posterior neck area. To me, it is well worth it and I will keep the small bumps if it means no more hair lost! However, I have a thin, dry to normal skin, so it is no big deal and doesn't disfigure me! I am not sure it comes from the supplements but the timing coincides. It is worth giving Maxi Hair a try!

Nail has started to grow again, they are harder to break

So I made the change of removing my individual hair extension at the start of this year. My hair had so much damage I decided to not get them reinstalled. I am a model and during my peak season I would style my hair every single day with straightening, curling, etc. The only care I would give my hair is an egg and avocado hair mask treatment once a month. However, that would matter anyway as part of the initial guidelines given to me when I first got hair extensions is to NOT put conditioner on my roots, because they would lubricate the links that kept my extensions in. So my actual would never, ever get any love. I even shampooed less to save my extensions from drying out and not realizing that my scalp was suffering! So this bring me to the reason I bought this. When I had my extensions removed I was distraught at the state of my own locks. They were dry and brittle. They seem to be suffering from so much damage. So I decided to just purge myself of the issue. I got my hair cut to my chin... But as a girl who was used to having 22" extension hair, I felt nostalgic. A Makeup Artist referred this product to me when I complimented her hair during a shoot. Thank goodness I remembered what she said, because I needed help. I was a bald baby girl, and my hair naturally grew very slowly. One of the "joys" of being me. :( So I decided to buy this and try it out. I figured i had nothing to lose. In one month my hair grew a little MORE than an inch. My hair has NEVER shown that kind of growth rate in my life. Now that I have been out of this product for another month... I've noticed the decline. It has grown about half as fast as last time. I can't wait to buy another bottle. I think I will try the time release one i saw at Whole foods. It's just very pricey for how fast it went for me. (Twice a day?! The stuff just didn't last.) If you have concerns about your hair... these work really well. I was skeptical, but believe that this supplement will help with more than just growth. It has ingredient that improve the health of your hair and what girl doesn't feel sexy when her hair is!? UPDATE: Hello! It's been a year since I've started using MAXI HAIR. I've had about 3 routine trims since then. My chin-length hair now falls to the bottom of my chest area. My hair is thicker now as well. I found this out, because I like wearing single-sided updos secured with bobby pins, and now, I use twice as many pins to keep it up. I've even got my mom using MAXI HAIR as well, although we do agree it is pricey. I believe it's worth it though. My hair is so healthy now and I can't wait to see where it is by the end of the year. :)

This is the 3rd bottle of this hair supplement I have purchased and it, along with the collagen I take, is helping my hair. My hair began falling out a year ago because of Covid, my hairdresser said that he saw it all the time. So thanks Covid for taking a head full of hair. I was taking another supplement prior to this one but I had to find one without Vitamin D in it and that proved to be more challenging than one would think. I finally found this one and have been taking it ever since, I think it is working better than the other one I took. The aftertaste and smell are that typical multivitamin smell and taste. But it doesn't linger if I rinse my mouth out after swallowing so I can live with that. So yes, I do believe it is helping my hair regrow stronger and faster than if I took nothing. I can feel the fullness coming back little by little. The effects you see will not be immediate, it takes hair a long time to grow back in but I do believe that this has sped up the process somewhat.

After reading a lot of the reviews I decided to try this to help with my hair, bad hair cut I'm trying to grow out and it's also falling out at a rather alarming rate. Like several people said this is almost a multivitamin in itself, and since I already take a multivitamin I decided to only take one instead of two of these a day because i didn't want to get too much of the iodine and copper. About 4-6 weeks in I did notice an difference. I lad a lot less hair going down the drain, and my eyebrows were thicker, both of which were good. Unfortunately at week 7-8 all of a sudden my skin started reacting, all over my arms and legs I had these little water blister like things on the surface of my skin. Also I got a huge number of tiny red bumps appearing on my face and chest. Needless to say I'm one of the many who react to this product. I stopped and switched to another vitamin B supplement (most of this is B), and within a week the blisterlike things are gone, and most of the bumps are as well. Good luck.

These actually work my older thinning hair is noticeably thicker. You can't expect results for several months until your hair grows out about an inch or 2 but if you stick with it I guarantee you will see results.

Last early fall at age 32, my hair was thinning near my temples due to what I think was a hormone imbalance. I found this and it had all the ingredients I was looking for and I started taking it with garden of life bovine collagen and my hair is even thicker and healthier than before. Someone later recommended nutrafol but I discovered that this has the same ingredients but for way less. It does make me feel a little nauseous if i take it on an empty stomach, and it does make my pee bright yellow. I’ve gone down to taking one a day as maintenance along with the collagen. I find the combination of both supplements work best instead of one or the other. I also prefer this one over the “plus” version. I feel that was has an excessive amount of biotin. I definitely recommend this product, my hair, skin and fine lines have notably improved
