    You can do several things to help hair growth. The best is to take some vitamin E or increase vitamin E in your diet. Also scalp massage, getting regular trims, and some people swear by using horse shampoo and conditioner (gives you silky and shiney hair).

    No. Vitamin B-12 (aka cobalamin) is not involved in hair or nail growth, although Vitamin B-2 (aka riboflavin) is known to promote hair and nail growth. However, the previous person is right about biotin. Biotin is a vitamin-B complex that has been shown to have a strong correlation with nail and hair growth. Moreover, there are indications that it may lower blood sugar levels, for people with Type-II adult onset diabetes.

    i used a vitamin called biotin when i wanted my hair to grow longer,faster. it really worked but you have to be patient, you will notice your hair growing faster after about two to three weeks if you take it as directed. you should be able to find it at any drugstore.

    b-12 vitamins give you energy, although i suppose they would not hurt your hair. protein, and fish is good for hair.
