I've been taking Biotin for about a year now and when I started my hair was short, brittle and thinning. Over time my hair has stopped falling out, has grown really fast and long, holds a nice shine and has never been healthier. My nails are growing back fast and hard too, but even I can't keep long nails for long without breaking them. As with all supplements nothing happens over night, so patience is key here.

I read dozens and dozens of reviews on biotin before actually purchasing this product. The reason for my purchase is because I wanted to grow out my hair - and based on my research, biotin seemed to do the trick. I take two 5,000mcg per day, and I have now been taking biotin for a little over 2 months. And honestly, it actually does work! My hair grows EXTREMELY SLOWLY. I am half african american, half filipino - with course, dry, curly hair. After the first month of taking 10,000mcg of biotin everyday, I saw results. It could've been because of the high dosage that I was taking but I'm pretty sure 5,000mcg would probably produce similar results as well. Now after taking it for 2 months, my hair has grown about 2 1/2 inches, which is CRAZYYY! I definitely do recommend taking biotin if it's for hair growing purposes. I didn't break out in any crazy, dramatic way. I have naturally sensitive, acne-prone skin already but taking biotin didn't worsen it at all. Just drink more water as a precaution though. With my nails, I've always had fast-growing nails so... I can't say that this product affected them at all.<br /><br />Overall, this is a great product for growing out your hair!

Bottle has been used... There was an odd label on the bottle. Underneath that label is another label!!! I used for 2 weeks (10 days) Not happy with results at all and I broke out...Back to my old brand of biotin. Do not take chances with bottles that look like this. Spoke to my doctor about this and she advised me to stop taking immediately.

Take this in addition to Swanson's Gelatin and Silicon for significant improvement in your fingernails. It took less than a month for me to see results.

So nice I can almost paint them but instead will open the back of my phone. I couldn't do THAT before!!!

Despite being gel caps these are very small thus so much easier to swallow than regular gel caps. And the quality is great, along with the price, and I noticed improvements within a week of starting. Swanson proved to be a good choice.
