Biotin Results? Worth It?

So I'm just curious I know a lot of people recommend biotin, if you take/took it how long was it before you started seeing results. Did your hair take a Long time to start growing?

I've heard that multiple times and that scares me :( like.. I want to try it to restore and help my hair and nails but not if my face will break out.. Hmm.

I took mine for about 2 months and my hair got shinner and looked a lot more healthy. But then I noticed my back face and chest was breaking out so I had to stop taking it. Some people just can't take what in biotin. I have sensitive skin so thats why.

Any vitamin will do that. It was a game changer for me, in a good way. Its inexpensive, I say give it a shot!

Not everyone will break out from it.

Okay! I think it's worth a shot if I see any breakouts I will just stop taking it (: thanks girls. Angel did I make your hair grow faster? When did you start seeing results?

Not faster, but way stronger. I noticed less breakage. Your nails will show you how fast your body accepts the vitamin, ( provided you have natural nails!) I know taking a b- complex/ HSNvit helped me deal with sun exposure last summer too.

I added it to a list of vitamins I take and a vegan list of hair products, within two months my hair can grow 6inches. I take 7,500mcg and I have not noticed any difference in my acne. I started seeing results after two months, maybe three because unless you are mesuring your hair its hard to tell. its deff growing faster than when I wasnt taking it. :} silica is also good for great hair.

I recommend a smaller dosage! May take a little longer to see results but at least you won't be breaking out, I take 1000mg instead of 5000mg, and I only notice a very small amount of bumps on my jaw, hope this helps!

I love it!! You break out at first because it us trying to force the bad out of your skin. Staying faithful to it fir about a year and the results are amazing!

The doctor actually told me it doesn't really help your hair grow faster but helps it get strong, its for people with thin hair, I don't know that's what he said, hope this helps.

I have been taking it since December (everyday) and I have noticed a HUGE difference in my hair. I have not broken out at all since I started using it, I have dry skin. My hair has gotten much longer than it has been in over two years. I highly recommend it.

Biotin is a water soluble vitamin plus it needs an activator. while taking biotin you need to drink lots of water to help break it down. if you don't that's what causes acne. also if you take it it combination with a b-complex vitamin you shouldn't break out. I take 10000 mcg everyday and my hair has grown 2 1/2 inches since January

Personally it didn't make my hair grow faster but it improved my hair in texture and oilliness. My hair is healthier (I never curl or straighten it). I have thought that it broke me out before but I think it was just because I was on my period. Give it a shot!

I think it depends on how sensitive your face is I broke out a little but it made my hair grow and made it very healthy an my nails were growin like crazy.

I didn't know biotin can make you break out! Oh my gosh...I went through a whole bottle but I saw zero results. (My hair barely grows ever.). Shortly after I began taking it I started breaking out on my chest and back; even my face did too a little. I think the biotin is what made that happen for me, but I can't be 100% sure. :(

I take biotin daily. I have skin that is prone to breakouts (I took prescription acne meds for a while) but if anything I saw improvement in my skin. I can't speak for anyone else, but I only saw positive results. I have have shiny hair and strong fingernails now. I suggest you try it, along with a balanced diet and LOTS of water. If you break out just stop taking it, but it works very well for me.
