It took five months for me

I'll say give it about 3 months for you see real hair growth on your scalp, before then you'll see little fuzz hairs growing
I noticed it in five months. I'd say don't give up the ship in three months. At five not only me but friends noticed it, too.
Hilarious, based on studies is even moreso
Since I always look for medical journal studies before I "try" something, my Dad calls me a "Walking Enclyclopedia with a Sense of Humor," so thanks.
The tocotrienols DO have a published placebo-controlled trial and that's why I feel like it's worth talking about.
The same is true of Nizoral shampoo, and iron deficiency being associated with hair loss, as well with some weaker data on taking biotin.
The fatal question is "Does it have published data that supports it?"
Which of course means, "Does it work?"
Toco-Sorb - I take four a day

I started with two a day, but it's known to be quite safe and actually has what we might call "anti-aging' effects, such as lowers cholesterol, protects the prostate from cancer, etc...
So I upped it to three a day, because my hair grew thicker. And whoever said it makes a beard grow faster is right. Damn, I hate having to shave more...
Then four a day, because after reading on the www.michaelmooney.net/hair.html that his hair got darker - I figured why not take a bit more.
Looking at the science, tocotrienols are far more potent in some portions of metabolism than vitamin E, as far as protecting tissue from damage, so I see them as helping keep me younger.
