Viviscal Three Month Trial Wrap Up

I just finished up my three month trial of Viviscal! I couldn’t be more thrilled with the supplements and results.

Average hair growth is about 6 inches per year or 1/2 inch per month. During the first month, my hair grew an amazing 1.5 inches. The second month, I logged another inch. A month ago, my test spot measured 15 inches from root to ends.

So… now time for confession. My hair had gotten so long, I couldn’t resist a trim. I really needed to even up and add some layers. While it was healthy, the quick growth made it a little unfinished looking.

My stylist and I noted my “test spot” and measured a 3 inch trim. Man, did it feel good to cut my hair, especially with all that length to work with. My “test spot” today measures 13 inches (or 16 adjusting for the trim). Bottom line, my hair grew another inch! So, I have logged 3.5 inches in three months. Astonishing when you think an inch and a half is normal for that period of time.

My lashes and brows are fuller and longer. My hair seems healthier despite an increase in heat styling lately. And my scalp health is even improved. My body hair did grow a little faster, but the trade off was worth it.

Viviscal Report #3

 

I just finished up my second month of my three month trial of Viviscal. Just to let you know how dedicated I am, I have resisted cutting my hair so we can get a true and accurate measurement. Looking forward to evening up the ends and adding some layers now that I have this great length!

Average hair growth is about 6 inches per year or 1/2 inch per month. During the first month, my hair grew an amazing 1.5 inches. This month, I have logged another inch! My hair now is a little under 15 inches. Compared to 14 inches on August 30th and 12.5 inches on July 30th). Amazing.

My lashes and brows are fuller and longer. My hair seems healthier despite and increase in heat styling lately. And my scalp health is even improved.

I’ll check back in after month at the end of the trial for a final length tally! For more details on Viviscal, check out my first post here and second post here.

Viviscal Report #2

Average hair growth is about 6 inches per year or 1/2 inch per month. When I measured my strands for this second Viviscal update, I couldn’t believe my eyes. I had to remeasure and remeasure. Until, I finally realized: yes, my hair did grow an inch and a half. 1.5 inches. In a month. When I (repeatedly) measured at the cowlick, my hair is 14 inches long (compared to 12.5 inches on July 30th).

This drug-free formula sped up my hair growth approximately three-fold. I assume some parts of the year, hair grows faster. But even adjusting for seasonality, this is impressive results.

My hair is slightly more oily, a somewhat expected side effect. There is a component of fish oil in the supplements. But this is something I am happy to exchange for fuller, healthier locks. Actually, the change in moisture actually tamed frizz – that and my new favorite hair oil.

I’ve also heard that users find their body hair grows faster. I cannot attest to this as I am a huge fan of laser hair removal. But I could swear my lashes and brows are fuller and longer.

I’ll check back in after month two of my trial! For more details on Viviscal, check out my first post here.
