Today, our friends at Vitamin Research Products (VRP) are giving away three sets of effective products to help make your hair and nails healthier, and make you happier. A revitalizing lip balm also will be included in the VRP package. Each set is valued at $59.85. Here are the details!
Extension Hair & Nails ($19.95 for 60 capsules) is a supplement which will help promote vibrant, shining hair and strong nails, both important signs of health and vitality. Using the power of biotin (vitamin H), inositol (a nutrient to help improve hair strength on a cellular level), PABA (para-aminobenzoic acid), and other antioxidants, this formula will aid in hair and nail growth.
The supplement also will help protect against air pollutants that damage cells in your hair, which can lead to dullness and dryness. “A supplement of key nutrients will promote hair (and nail!) strength from within,” says FOFounder Geri Brin.
Healthy Hair Caps ($29.95 for 120 capsules) can be used in conjunction with Extension Hair & Nails and helps balance the levels of DHT, a testosterone hormone which can damage hair follicles. The formula includes saw palmetto and beta-sitosterol extracts, both derived from plants, to help support healthy hair growth.
Restoration Therapy Pure HA Lip Balm ($9.95) is made with 100% natural ingredients, including beeswax, olive oil and hyaluronic acid. This hydrating formula is paraben free and unscented, and will help your lips feel soft and supple, as well as reduce the appearance of lip lines.
All VRP products are made in the United States, formulated by a team of physicians, PhD’s and nutritionists, and tested for identity, potency, purity and contaminants. Learn more about these hair and nails “boosters” here.

Jet Kuhn says:
After two years short of 40 years of dyeing my hair (started greying at 16) I’d had enough and am now dye free. I almost want to dye it again to give it some thickness and body, it’s gotten so thin, wiry, frizzy, and super dry. I always had a beautiful set of strong, long nails, now they’re weak, split, and break easily (I’m so used to long nails I’ve been using fakes, old habits die hard! I’m sure that’s not helping either.)
Janice Cash says:
My hair is thin and dull, & my nails tend to break easily now.

I’m still happy with my nails. But not my hair. It’s grey so I color it, so that’s damaging it on top of just natural aging that’s making it lifeless and flat.

I’ve definitely noticed a change in my hair–dull and more fine and my nails tend to split and peel more than before.
gmcl says:
Nails are dry and brittle, hair has thinned some and skin is very dry and fragile.
luci says:
I am not only post menopausal, I no longer have my thyroid so… when my nails grow they split, and no amount of buffing shines them up. I don’t dare polish. My hair is disgusting. It has thinned quite a bit, especially where I used to have a sort of part. I always had really thick blond hair, never could see my scalp but now I can. I also stopped coloring it and am going through that awful grow out thing and my hair is dull, rough and brittle. I used demi permanent which is gentler but it was just destroying what hair I have left.
Sheree Fournerat says:
My hair just looks so dull and dreary. If it wasn’t for the ‘silver’, there wouldn’t be any shine at all.
Jackie says:
My hair has thinned to almost nothing and my nails will not grow beyond stubs. I am very sad…

Laurie Strebe says:
My hair is dry and dull. Wag!!!
stellaferraiuolo@yahoo.com says:
While I’ve never had a thick head of beautiful hair or long, strong fingernails – my hair & nails have gotten worse with age. At 57, I’m cursed with thin, brittle hair & nails no matter what products I use. These specific vitamins might just do the trick. Crossing my fingers! ????
jules mcnubbin says:
my nails are ok but my hair is white and coarse ( i have it colored)
Nancy Jachcik says:
My nails are terrific except I am noticing ridges I never had before. As for my hair it is now grey and frizzy and thin with a lot of broken strands
Kim McDonough says:
I am 53 years young, and I had spine surgery about 14 years ago and ever since than my hair has gotten so thin and my nails are really soft. And I take supplements but they don’t seem to be making a difference. So I’d really love a chance to try something new.
Diane Popper says:
My story sounds quite similar to Jammer26 (see below). My hair has always been my pride and joy. Even at 66, my hair is very long. Now, however, gone is the shine, the natural curl, the waves and the thickness at the top of my head and along the hairline. But it certainly does get frizzy. The hair has no life to it and lays flat on my head. Thank God for hair products! My hair recedes totally at my temples so now I have to be careful where I place my part. I’m afraid to cut my hair short for fear that my scalp will show through. Funny that people still comment on how much hair I have and they are right…at least in the back. I’m hesitant to back comb it a bit to get some height because I don’t want to do anything that could cause harm to my hair. I’ve tried all the suggested vitamins and special shampoos with out any significant sucess.
My fingernails, which at one time were kept at a longer, now break off right when they reach about 1/8 past my finger. My toenails are always chipping(not talking about the polish!) and have awful grooves and ridges. I’ve tried all the suggested vitamins and special shampoos
Sheila Totten says:
Having problems with nails with ridges.Although I use mosturizer my skin on hands and arms still seems dry and I use Argon Oil infusion shampoo and conditioner on my hair but it doesn’t seem to shine.Also a lot thinner than used to be.Would love to try these products to see if they would make these conditions get better especially my hair.
Carole says:
My nails are dry with ridges and my hair is thinning.
Cynderma says:
My nails are dry with ridges. My skin is dry. I have to use 2 moisturizing products because my hair is dry. Would really like to try the products to see if they improve the condition of nails, skin and hair
Chris says:
I’m not coloring my hair anymore.. texture is different, but so is everything else as I age, like my skin and nails. Even when we do all the right things, some of the effects of aging are not pretty. I intend to fight the good fight!
Cindy L says:
Unfortunately, I have had to add a cancer diagnosis last year to tell you how terrible my “new” hair is and how my fingernails have been totally destroyed. I am using biotin to help with my hair, skin & nails but I’m hoping that your products will help restore what used to be….
Sherry Ittel says:
My hair has always been fine and thin, but it is getting worse. Considering a wig.
elisse says:
My hair was always fine to begin with, but it does seem to be both finer and thinner now. My fingernails, however, are somewhat thicker and better than they were when I was younger; for most of my life they were paper-thin and always tore at the quick; now they actually get long enough sometimes that I can put polish on them!
christine p says:
I am 57. 56 was a bad year. I lost probably 1/3 of my hair. But I am still happy to have what’s left of it. I wear clip in extensions, a spiky blonde scrunchie, even tap in extensions to mask the loss of hair. I have tried the topical solutions and vitamins. Nothing seems to work. I would love to give VRP a chance. My nails would never grow, even with biotin and zinc. So, I’m used to that! The things we women go through~
brooklyn says:
Stress and thinning, dull, dry hair! Misery really does love company…
Meredith Peters says:
I’m 57 and noticed my hair thinning from the time I turned 40. At this time in my life I am just finishing up radiation and will be finishing chemo soon for uterine cancer. I have been looking around for products that will nourish my scalp, hair follicles and hair once its ready to grow back in a few weeks. This line of products from VRP look like just the ticket!
Celeste Crago says:
A couple of months ago, my hands suddenly looked fragile and boney, I was in shock! My hair is baby fine, and now it’s so dry and dull, very unattractive. Bummed.
DEBI OTERO says:

gingerpye says:
Dull hair and dry brittle nails.
Mommyofone Shanna says:
Very thin and fine =(
Its so depressing
jammer26 says:
My hair woes have been leaving me increasingly more depressed. My hair used to be so thick it was difficult to put up in anything but the thickest of barrettes or hair bands, and now it has become so thin I am always paranoid that someone is looking at my increasingly more visible scalp through my thinning hair. My hair used to have a lot of natural wave and curl to it and I have noticed that not only has my hair become thinner, but it has lost much of it’s natural bounce, body, volume, shape, and texture. I have always had a little bit of a widow’s peak at the hairline on my forehead and temples, but now it has begun to full on recede. My nails are thin, weak, growing more slowly, and getting ridges in them. It is all incredibly depressing and has me not wanting to go out in public, or to see people that knew me before.
Jo-Ann Brightman says:
My hair was always thick and glossy. Now it has become thinner, especially in the front and has less sheen. My nails are also thinner and more brittle.
Becky Beer says:
My hair was the thick; the kind that needed to be thinned… Not any more! In the last 5 years My hair no longer grows where it should… only where it shouldn’t… like my lip, face, and those other places.
Now my scalp shows, and what if I get a sunburn now? I Have to wear a hat!
SO please tell me hair restoration is Real!… better yet : Prove it to me!
barbc824 says:
Hair is thinner…yuck

I have a receding hairline & my nails split more! Help!
inkchick says:
My hair isn’t as full as I’d like it to be.
Suzanne Carter says:
About 16 years ago, I had numerous hospitalizations and that’s when my hair began falling out in clumps and nails broke off. Although I was able to grow back some, my hair just doesn’t have the thickness and sheen it once had and my nails are still fragile. I am 62 years old and would love to boost the health of my hair and nails with these products.
Fran Hoagland says:
My hair is drier and lacks shine after I stopped coloring it. I have had some hair loss due to a thyroid condition, so I could really use some help.
eddyrobey says:
My hair has thinned, but nails have thickened
