kelp to make your hair grow???

about 5 months ago i had my head shaved for charity,i should have done a bungee jump but due to my medical state the surgeon said no as i would end up back in hospital my next idea was to get my head shaved raised loads of money and my hair is now about 2" long i am getting impatient waiting for it to grow back (it is taking forever ) and my friend said that they heard kelp tablets would make your hair grow faster anybody know if this is true.i am that desperate for hair i have even looked at wigs well at least the charity got plenty of money

Photos please! No, seriously.There is a supplement called hair, nails .... and something else ,that is supposed to make hair grow. Hope it grows ok! If it works let me know, I am trying to grow my hair and it must be the slowest growing in history! People at work have grown thiers long and had it cut in the time that I have grown a bob!

My hair all fell out during chemo....I asked lots of people, and everyone said there is nothing to take to make it grow back quicker!!

Mine is below my shoulders now, and has taken 2 years to grow back to this length

Hi Griff

Hair growth is a good indicator of how well someone is - usually those who are suffering from an illness the hair will take longer to grow. Vitamins can in some cases aid growth, and or condition of the hair

If your body is in good health, you can maximize your genetic growth cycle through taking the proper blend of amino acids and B-vitamins, this includes B-6, biotin, inositol and folic acid. Certain minerals including magnesium, sulfur, silica and zinc are also very important toward maintaining healthy hair. Beta-carotene is also essential to hair growth. Beta-carotene is found in green and yellow vegetables and fruits.

I would recommend that you seek medical advice before taking any form of vitamin supplement.

Logically yes Kelp contains natural iodine (and many trace elements) which is supposed to be good for hair and nails so yes it could make it health and strong and therefore aid growth.
I love the hair Griff it looks great...
