A member asked:
Got round brush stuck in hair, which required losing several chunks of hair to get it out. anything i can do diet/supplement-wise to help hair grow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Relax. Comb or brush hair over thin areas. Hair will grow at 1cm a month. There is nothing you can do to speed it up. Minoxidil topical may stimulate thicker hair. Oral finasteride [dutasteride is stronger] is even better.
