What is the verdict here on Biotin-- can it help your hair growth or harm it?
Also, I have a Vitamin D deficiency - would taking the pills help speed up growth?
Biotin will not hurt your hair. It will only help it. Biotin is a B vitamin and it is needed for healthy skin, nails, and hair.
If you have a vitamin D deficiency you should take your vitamin D pills no matter what.

Yes, biotin is helpful. I also take saw palmetto, MSM, and a special hair supplement containing silica. (I am unsure about how vitamin D affects hair growth.)

biotin has been a big help for me... My hair is thin on top and I've seen fresh growth - I'll never have thick hair on top, but I believe it helps grow hair and strengthen hair.
I take it daily, along with MSM and a number of others.
Does it help hair grow faster?
biotin is OK :-) verry good for hair is also virgin pumpkin oil and also pangamin /natural vitamines of B/
if you have deficiency of D-vit take it in pills or go often on sun /vit D in 80% is made of sunshine/
if you are not a vegan vit D is in dairy products
