The best vitamins, minerals and other supplements to take if you suffer from nutrition-based hair loss (or in any case, to help your hair) are:
Vitamin A great for skin and scalp conditions per se and because of its good anti-oxidant properties (which clear your skin and scalp of toxins, excess oil and even bacterial affections); always result the recommended doses as you must never overdose on Vitamin A. However, some dermatologist do designate high doses of Vitamin A for a little duration of time (always checking the inpatient often enough) to 'boost' hair follicle nutrition. If you are buying over the counter Vitamin A (pure, not from Carotene), make sure you understand what's a safe, daily dose by reading the instructions on the label. At the same time, if you are already taking a multi-vitamin supplement you need to take it into consideration, since they all have small amounts of Vitamin A.
Supplements for Hair Loss
Vitamin C and Iron: this is particularly the case for pre-menopausal women, whose iron levels are often lower than recommended. Vitamin C helps the absorption of iron and together they conduce to a salutary blood supply to your hair follicles; vitamin C is also a great anti-oxidant (see explanation in the Vitamin A section).
Vitamin E, often taken with Vitamin A, as they work well together to promote scalp health; an additional one great anti-oxidant.
Biotin. One of the most commonly 'recommended' Vitamin against hair loss is biotin or vitamin H. Biotin has been considered to somewhat preclude hair loss, as well as preclude inordinate or premature gray hair, to a positive extent. Biotin is part of the Vitamin B complex; however, some people should not take added Vitamin B complex supplements since some are susceptible to the 'negative' effects that Vitamin B6 may have on Dht and a greasy scalp (as we are!). If in doubt, ask your dermatologist. Ours told us not to take too much Vitamin B6.
