Vitamin supplements

I've been taking my vitamin supplements daily, in the mornings. My lashes are longer to the point that I don't even need to use mascara now.

Here's the list of vitamins I take that are supposed to aid in hair growth:

Silica 500 mg

Biotin 1000 mcg

One A Day Women's Vitamin

MSM 1000 mg (sometimes I take 2 of these in one day, making 2000 mg)

I drink a lot of water so the breakout horror stories I've read about haven't happened to me, but I did get a couple of tiny bumps that were barely visible. I can definitely see how the crazy breakouts can happen but I think it's a temporary thing until your body gets all of the impurities out.

I've had my hair in two strand twists for the past two weeks but tonight I'm going to be cowashing my hair because it's been too long and my hair is begging me :-)

Prior to that, I did flat iron my hair (I felt like doing something a bit different), so I've included that photo as well.

My supplements for hair growth

As you know, I'm taking a multivitamin, silica, biotin and MSM. I want to see how well this aids in hair growth. My main interest is in lengthening my hair's growth phase because the hair I do lose has white bulbs on the ends. So, with that said, I believe I have a great growth rate but am lacking in the growth phase department.

I've been chewing my MSM so it works faster (1000 mg) and hopefully I'll start to notice changes in the next month.

I've uploaded a photo of my ideal hair length at this point. Once I've reached that goal I'll upload a new hair inspiration .

Long hair, here I come!!
