Are there any supplements for hair or nails which really work?

I am trying to grow my hair and nails - I dye it blonde (not stopping ever) but have stopped straightening or blowdrying it. Is there anything else I can do to help it grow faster and or healthier? Cutting my hair regularly on the advice of hairdressers did not help at all.





My nails are also not very strong - I take calcium but is there anything else?Are there any supplements for hair or nails which really work?
To be honest, almost any multi will work. I used to take the Ultranourish Hair from GNC. (it has the same ingrediants as a pre-natal vitamin does, but, I didn't want to have ';pre-natal vitamins'; lying around my place b/c if anyone saw them, they would think I was trying to get preg.)But, since I'm buying a house now %26amp; cannot be spending allot of extra $$, I decided to switch to taking Centrum and also some extra biotin pills. (I get a big bottle of the Centrum from the wholesale club %26amp; you can get the biotin anywhere....doesn't need to be anything fancy, just try to take between 3000mcg %26amp; 5000mcg of biotin a day) And, to be completely honest, my hair and nails are growing at the EXACT same speed %26amp; same strength/quality as when I took the one's from GNC.





You do not need to cut your hair, unless you have slpit ends. Remember, hair grows from WITH-IN you, so, cutting it won't make it grow faster. Just get a trim whenever you see you have split ends. Oh, and make sure you are eating enough protein (hair is made up of protein) and drinking enough water (if you are dehydrated, you hair will be dry %26amp; could cause split ends)Are there any supplements for hair or nails which really work?
