Many women want long, beautiful hair, but with so many chemical shampoos and hair products on the market, it can be difficult to obtain long and strong hair. Luckily, taking certain vitamins can encourage strong hair cell growth.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C boosts the immune system and protects the scalp and hair follicles from disease.
Vitamin A
Vitamin A helps the body produce more skin and hair cells, leading to thicker hair.
B Vitamins
The B vitamins are usually taken in a single supplement, and help create stronger hair shafts and follicles. The B vitamins that are most effective at this are B5, B1 and B9.
Biotin
Biotin, also known as vitamin H, helps encourage amino acids to produce proteins, which can strengthen hair.
Vitamin E
Vitamin E helps hair follicles receive more oxygenated blood, which is necessary for hair growth. Vitamin E also can be applied directly to the hair shafts to maintain shine and strength.
