Is it true that putting birth control pills in a shampoo helps the hair to grow faster?

I've heard that if you put birth control pills in your regular shampoo, it will help to make your hair grow faster and thicker.

    Dear, that is ABSURD idea..No, that is not true, you can do so many things to help your hair to be healthy and strong, but not that way!

    If you want your hair to grow faster and thicker, it's best to take either a prenatal vitamin or a vitamin specifically for hair and nails. Increasing your protein consumption will also help. There is a rumor about apple cider vinegar, but if you look at the nutrition information on the side of the bottle (don't trust what websites say), you will see that there are virtually no vitamins/minerals/nutrients of any kind. Nothing you can apply to the outside of your hair will make it grow faster, it just doesn't work that way.

    Of all the insane issues that I have heard to make hair advance, this is the craziest one. you are able to't make your hair advance faster, it really is bodily no longer a threat. No weight-loss plan, pill, nutrition, oil, shampoo, no longer something will artwork. Your hair is unlike a plant. Having a sturdy weight-loss plan and protecting your self hydrated will inspire more effective powerful hair boom, yet no longer faster hair boom

    I do not know if that is true, but I do know apple cider vinegar works. It has over 93 vitamins and minerals in just 2 tablespoons. To make your drink: 2 tbls acv plus 8 oz. of water = long hair and nails. Its just pennies per glass too! Read about acv on the web. Thousands of articles packed with loads of info.

    I've never heard of such a thing, I use to make up a rosemary rinse for my hair, apparently rosemary is good for promoting hair growth... Massaging your scalp is good too!
