“Nutrient” + “bioactive" = “Nutraceutical". Nutraceuticals are natural, bio-optimized ingredients—which is exactly what you'll find in our hair growth supplements. They're standardized to contain guaranteed amounts of bioactive phytonutrients, and tested for efficacy and healthy use in clinical studies showing specific bioactivities, health benefits, and growth improvements. We took the extra step to patent our Nutraceutical ingredient blend, too.

Not only is Nutrafol suitable for most people, but our hair growth supplements are specifically formulated to meet you where you are in life. We have 5 Nutraceutical formulas that are tailored to the bio-specific needs of men and women throughout all life stages: Women's, Women’s Vegan, Postpartum for the first year after childbirth or while breastfeeding, Women's Balance for peri- and postmenopause, and Men's.

Please note: We do not recommend Nutrafol to anyone under the age of 18. Also, while we have no reason to believe it's harmful, there have not been enough studies for us to say Nutrafol is suitable during pregnancy—so we recommend skipping it while pregnant or trying to conceive and sticking with Nutrafol Postpartum while breastfeeding. If you have a medical condition, or are taking medications (especially anticoagulant and blood-thinning drugs), please consult with your physician before taking Nutrafol.

Nutrafol products were formulated to promote hair growth and hair wellness for all types of hair. While the characteristics of hair strands may vary by ethnicity, the underlying root causes that affect hair follicles can affect all people equally.

In a recent clinical study, we examined the effectiveness of Nutrafol in African American, Asian, Hispanic, and non-Hispanic men and women. All ethnicities saw less shedding after 2 months and improved thickness, growth rate, scalp coverage, and shine after 6 months of taking our Hair Growth Nutraceuticals.

Everyone's experience is different, but in our clinical studies, women showed results in 3-6 months. It's important to remember that healthy hair growth takes time—and of course, consistency is key. If you take Nutrafol daily, here's a snapshot of what you're likely to experience:

1-3 months:Strengthen hair from within. Look for shinier hair with less shedding and breakage.

3-6 months:You may notice improvement in fullness and volume.

6+ months:Experience visible changes like faster-growing hair that’s thicker and stronger with more scalp coverage.

Commitment to Nutrafol has whole-body rewards, too. Our ingredients are shown to promote more restful sleep, less stress, better mood, and clearer skin. A little something we call side benefits.

Women's Vegan addresses six root causes of hair thinning that include: 1) Stress, 2) Nutrition, 3) Lifestyle Habits, 4) Metabolism, 5) Hormones, and 6) Biological Aging.

Stress - Ashwagandha helps to balance stress hormones in the body to support a healthy hair growth cycle.*

Nutrition - Vitamin B12, Vitamin D3 (from algae), Vitamin K2, Zinc, Selenium and Iodine aid in potential nutrient gaps to support hair health.*

Lifestyle Habits - Antioxidants, like Vitamin C and Vitamin E, fight oxidative stress that can compromise hair health.*

Metabolism - Probiotics optimize gut health to help with the breakdown and absorption of nutrients, contributing to healthy hair growth.*

Hormones - Critical nutrients like Vitamin B12, Amino Acids (building blocks of protein), and Zinc support healthy hormonal balance to help sustain hair growth and volume.*

Biological Aging - Ingredients like Dragonhead and Vitamin C naturally support the body in its own collagen production, which tends to naturally reduce with age.*

Plant-based includes a range of diets that contain reduced amounts of animal products and increased amounts of plant products such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, nuts and seeds. This includes, but is not limited to, vegans, vegetarians, flexitarians, and pescatarians.

Women's Vegan contains a number of new ingredients, making it optimized for plant-based customers. In our Synergen Plant Complex®, you can find Moldavian Dragonhead, a botanical shown to naturally support the body in its own collagen production.*We have also added in Pea Sprout Extract, Bamboo (for its silica content), Beet Root, Probiotics, Chlorella, Vitamin B12, Vitamin D (from algae), and Vitamin K2—all supporting hair health by addressing key root causes of hair thinning.*

Both Women’s and Women's Vegan formulas are clinically tested and target key root causes of hair thinning for women 18-44 such as stress, lifestyle and nutrition. However, Women's Vegan is optimized for those living a plant-based lifestyle. To create Women’s Vegan, we did not just remove non-vegan ingredients. Instead, we identified clinically effective, 100% vegan ingredients to support hair health, like Moldavian Dragonhead, which naturally supports the body’s own collagen production.*Women’s Vegan also replenishes nutrient gaps that could exist within a plant-based diet, while aiding the gut in absorption of critical nutrients—all through 100% vegan ingredients.*

Unlike other options on the market, we did not just remove our non-vegan ingredients to create Women's Vegan. We identified other clinically effective, 100% vegan, nutrient-rich extracts, including Moldavian Dragonhead, that naturally supports the body's own collagen production.* In combination with other ingredients, this formula addresses known triggers of hair thinning in the most effective way possible.

We also completed clinical testing on our Women's Vegan formula and users saw visibly less shedding, thicker volume and hair that grows faster, stronger, and longer.*

Women's Vegan is best to be taken with a meal to support absorption. Nutrafol contains fat-soluble vitamins, which absorb better when taken with healthy fat. You can get that easily with a meal, or simply a slice of avocado or spoonful of nut butter.

Yes! Seeing results is a positive thing, but a lot of the ingredients in Nutrafol need to be taken consistently to keep showing you those results. If you did not make any lifestyle changes to improve your root causes of poor hair health (like diet, lifestyle exposures, and stress), your body will require the added support of the ingredients in Nutrafol.
