How to take it
Two capsules daily with food, not within an hour of other medication. Hair grows roughly half an inch a month, so give it 90 days before you judge it. It contains 14.5 mg of iron: if you’re past menopause and not iron-deficient, ask your doctor before adding iron. Compare labels with any multivitamin so you aren’t doubling vitamin A, iron or zinc. Keep well out of reach of children. Iron overdose is dangerous for under-sixes.

Where it fits
Same formula. Different mirror moment.
Pick the one that sounds like you and we'll tell you what to expect, and when.
You noticed it in a photo before you noticed it in the mirror.
Gradual thinning at midlife is usually a mix of hormones, stress and nutrition. This covers the nutrition part. Before you spend on anything else, ask your doctor for iron (ferritin) and thyroid blood tests. Those two explain more shedding than any supplement fixes. This formula includes 14.5 mg of iron, so if your ferritin is already fine, tell your doctor you’re taking it.
They used to be the one thing that was easy.
Nails show nutrition faster than hair. Biotin and zinc are the usual suspects; new growth from the base takes about six weeks to reach the tip.
Moisturiser isn’t landing like it used to.
Oestrogen loss thins skin and slows oil. Vitamins C, E and D support it from the inside; what you put on top still matters. Think of this as the floor, not the ceiling.
Three months after the hard year, your hair started falling.
Shedding that starts two to three months after illness, surgery or a brutal stretch of stress is common and usually temporary. Nutrition helps the regrowth phase; time does the rest.
What's in it, and why
Hair and nails are made of keratin. Keratin is made of this.
Biotin, zinc and the B-vitamins are the raw materials for keratin; vitamin C is required to make collagen; vitamin D sits in the hair-cycle pathway. If you’re short on any of them, hair and nails are the first place it shows.
And if you’re not short on them, the effect is smaller, which is why we tell you to check iron and thyroid first, why we flag the iron in this formula for anyone past menopause, and why we don’t charge $88 for a bottle of vitamins.

Before the cart
The questions women ask first.
If yours isn't here, email us. A person answers.
How long until I see anything?
Nails: six to eight weeks. Hair: three months minimum, because that’s the growth cycle. Anyone promising two weeks is selling you something else.
Should I get blood work first?
Ideally, yes: ferritin (iron), thyroid and vitamin D. If one of those is low, fixing it will do more than any supplement, and this will help the regrowth that follows.
I’m past menopause. Do I want the iron?
Maybe not. Once periods stop, most women no longer lose iron every month, and extra iron without a deficiency isn’t helpful. Ask for a ferritin test; if it’s normal, tell your doctor you’re taking this and let them decide.
Can I take it with a multivitamin?
Compare the labels for vitamin A, iron and zinc so you’re not doubling up. If your multi already covers them, you may not need both.
Anything my doctor should know?
Three things. Biotin can interfere with certain lab tests, including thyroid and some heart markers. Stop a few days before blood work if they ask. It contains 14.5 mg of iron. And the botanical blend includes fo-ti (Polygonum multiflorum), which has rare reports of liver irritation. Stop and call your doctor if you notice yellowing skin or dark urine.
