Everyone wants and desires a full head of hair. However, few will ever attain such a mane that others will envy. Yet, there are a multitude of shampoos claiming a user will experience these benefits with continued use.

Countless beauty magazines sport numerous advertisements promising results almost entirely too good to be true. These products, of course, are consumed by millions of consumers hoping to realize these false gains only to be disappointed in the aftermath. What, then, if anything will help a lifeless mane gain strength and vibrancy for such consumers?

As a consumer prepared to spend your hard earned money on shampoos and conditioners, doesn’t it stand to reason that investing a few minutes of your time to learn about the anatomy of hair will serve you well into the future? Of course, that is why we have written this article, to enlighten you so that you will forever more be a consumer armed with knowledge. Let us first discuss the anatomy of hair and later move on to gain a greater understanding of exactly what types of vitamins and/or nutrients will help you to enjoy faster growing hair. Additionally, what of faster growing hair? Shouldn’t your primary goal be to grow healthier hair?

Anatomy of Hair

Our hair is very much like our skin with the exception being it is no longer living. Instead, hair is hardened protein no longer living. It is composed of 88 percent protein. Even after the last breath of life has left our body, our hair continues to grow. In general, human hair grows about 6 inches per year. This is the equivalent of about a half inch per month. Since hair is composed primarily of protein, it requires vitamins, amino acids, and minerals for nourishment. If a person has an insufficient amount of nutrients, it will definitely result in slower than average growth. So, the fast and effective way to make a hair grow faster is to feed the body adequate amounts of nutrients to both fuel the body and nourish hair. This, of course, is only half of the equation. Hair also requires nourishment externally in order to maintain health.

Vitamin shampoos work for the external vitamin needs of your hair while the vitamin pills provide the internal needs for feeding of a strong mane of hair. To propel faster-growing hair, be sure that your vitamin shampoo and vitamin pills are composed of these important nutrients for best results:

· Vitamin B12. This nutrient prevents more hair loss.

· Vitamin B6. This also prevents hair loss and also helps producing more melanin which provides better hair color.

· Pantothenic Acid or Vitamin B5. Also prevents hair loss, as well as, graying of hair.

· Niacin or Vitamin B3. This helps promoting a healthier scalp.

· Inositol. It keeps your hair follicles at a cellular level, making it healthier.

· Biotin. It produces more keratin and prevents hair graying and hair loss.

· Vitamin E. This is an antioxidant that makes your scalp healthier.

· Vitamin C. This is also an antioxidant that maintains your hair and skin healthy.

· Vitamin A. Helps in creating healthy hair sebum for the scalp.

· Other nutrients like Beta Carotene, Silica, Nettle, and Flaxseed oil.

Also, avoid consuming caffeine-rich food, alcohol, and nicotine. These substances hinder and impede these vitamin shampoos and pills. Just as the human body works as a collective machine, so must your beauty regimen act as a system if you are to realize the greatest results possible.

The importance of the vitamins and proper nutrition to the hair should not be underestimated; however, many women and men may suffer from a very real problem that inhibits hair growth. Poor circulation is the primary reason why many people can not grow hair. Without adequate blood flow there is little chance that the necessary nutrition will be pumping into capillaries and eventually nourishing each hair follicle. The solution for those who suffer from poor circulation is exercise. With increased exercise blood flow increases and ultimately reaches the hair follicle. A healthy heart, then, is the secret to beautiful healthy hair along with proper diet and maintenance.
