Hair loss or noticeable thinning hair can be a real stressor.



\In 2025, the beauty industry offers many solutions, from light pulse technology to specialised anti-brittle products. However, one of the most affordable and long-lasting solutions is vitamins for hair growth.

Dermatologists note: supplements work from the inside out, creating a healthy environment for the scalp and hair follicles. Unlike external remedies, they help address the root causes of hair loss.

"It's important for us to supply the follicles with nutrients that strengthen the hair and increase its resilience," explains a board-certified dermatologist in an Elle publication piece.

Zinc, vitamins A, C, D and E play a key role.

  • Vitamin A - regulates sebum production and keeps the scalp healthy.

  • Vitamin C - a powerful antioxidant, helps absorb iron and is involved in collagen synthesis, strengthening hair.

  • Vitamin D - plays a key role in the functioning of hair follicles; its deficiency is often associated with hair loss.

  • Vitamin E - improves scalp circulation, reduces oxidative stress and promotes growth.

  • Zinc - essential for tissue repair and follicle function, prevents breakage and hair loss.

Biotin (vitamin B7) and B complex vitamins are also often recommended, as they support hair structure and accelerate growth.

Here, then, is a list of essential vitamins and minerals for hair and the products that have the most of them:
