NCOA looks at the Best Vitamins for Hair Growth

In NCOA (National Council on Aging), Dr. Green was quoted in “Best Vitamins for Hair Growth in 2026, Researched and Tested.”  She noted that “the best supplements will have gone through clinical trials to verify their safety and effectiveness for hair growth. If an underlying medical condition causes hair loss, vitamins might not be able to fix it, as vitamins are generally not powerful enough to fully grow and keep hair on their own. But, they can be beneficial when used alongside other medications and treatments to help promote hair growth.”

Several supplements are commonly marketed for hair growth. Nutrafol was highlighted as the best overall option due to its blend of vitamins, minerals, and plant ingredients designed to address factors like stress and hormone changes. Happy Head was noted for its value, offering ingredients such as biotin, collagen, and vitamin D at a lower cost per serving. Hims & Hers Multivitamin Gummies were chosen as the best gummy option for people who prefer chewable supplements. Key nutrients often included in hair-growth formulas include vitamin D, zinc, biotin, saw palmetto, collagen, and ashwagandha, though evidence varies and results typically take three to six months to appear.
