Being the scientist I am, I want to do an experiment to see if me taking a Vitamin B supplement has any effect on my hair growth (I'm particularly interested in what Vitamin B3 can do).
So, here's the plan: I will take my Spring Valley Super B-Complex daily for 3 months or until I run out (but I shouldn't run out since certain factors dictate that I need to take them). Each month, I will do a length check to see if there are any drastic differences in hair growth. Hopefully, it will help you guys to decide if you should believe the hype regarding supplements!
How funny - I just started taking B-Complex this week as well, but I'm taking it because I'm having trouble with my memory! More specifically - I'm studying for a standardized test and I just need to ensure that my overall brain function and memory are in top shape! I was told that B-Complex will help with this. Getting some hair benefits would be an added bonus that I'll gladly accept!
ReplyDelete@FEG That's exactly how I feel. I'm taking B-Complex to help with my energy levels. I'm definitely interested to see what effects it will have on my hair!
