Question : is biotin for hair growth best in pill form or in shampoo
Brief Answer:
by mouth
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for your question.
Biotin for hair growth and brittle hair is best taking internally in the form of a tablet or capsule. It is regarded as safe if you use it only in the recommended doses. There is not solid evidence that it will improve hair growth, but it is worth a try and generally considered safe.
Good luck to you,
