Hair growth drugs are a non existant thing

I see a lot of questions on the internet that ask . “how can I make my hair grow faster, longer, fuller, etc”

The truth of the matter is. There is no great drug, or vitamin that will make your hair grow any way than its normal growth pattern. I found this article on web md about this very subject Doctor Doris Day of New York University writes :

Will prenatal vitamins help my hair grow faster?

I have a lot of patients who like taking their prenatal vitamins and they think that it helps their hair grow faster.

There is nothing in the literature that supports this. Prenatal vitamins are really just a nice mix of vitamins that support women who are planning pregnancy. They have ingredients like folic acid that women should not be deficient in when they are planning on getting pregnant, because of certain birth defects. But there is nothing special in a prenatal vitamin or any supplement that will help grow your hair.

I understand being a Cosmetologist , that hair is a very Important part of our lives. But at this point in time. It’s just not anything on the market that is a super hair growth drug.

The best thing you can do for your hair is to eat a healthy diet, drink lots of fresh water. Use the right shampoo and conditioner for your hair type, and keep your hair groomed
