I’m a Leo, and a friend once told me that Leos care about their hair so much because it’s like their mane. To that I say: oh absolutely. Now if only my mane would cooperate!
I’ve always had light, thin hair. Over the years, age hasn’t done me any favors. Recently, I decided to give my hair the boost it’s always needed by taking a biotin supplement.
In my research, I came across two of the most popular biotin supplements out there: MyBiotin ProClinical and Sugarbear Pro. I wanted to be sure I was taking the most effective supplement, so I tried both.
Here are my thoughts:
For stronger hair from the root up…MyBiotin
I set out on this journey for one reason: to manifest thicker hair. With MyBiotin ProClinical, I came to the right place. MyBiotin is built around a clinically studied and proprietary form of biotin called MB40X™ that’s 40 times more soluble than regular old biotin.
It's also important to note that it contains 10,000 mcg of biotin – to put that in perspective, Sugarbear contains just 3,000 mcg.
Probably due to its smaller dose of biotin, Sugarbear gave me less of a noticeable change over time when compared to MyBiotin. However, Sugarbear also contains 8 other vitamins and nutrients, making it more of a hair-centric daily multivitamin.
While that might be great for some people, I already have a daily multi that I love and was more focused on achieving thicker, healthier-looking hair—which is why I’m calling MyBiotin ProClinical the winner in this category.
For naturally glowing, dewy skin…MyBiotin
Of course, a multivitamin like Sugarbear is going to help round out your wellness when paired with healthy habits—that’s the point!
But as someone who has their general nutrition and exercise routines sorted, I’m specifically focused on maintaining and elevating my hair and skin as I mature. That’s why the inclusion of the potent compound Astaxanthin in MyBiotin ProClinical is so clutch.
Astaxanthin delivers supercharged antioxidant power while protecting against environmental factors that stress skin cells and tissues. Along with the MB40X, this means that MyBiotin can help promote skin elasticity and help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles—making it the winner in this category.
For a lil’ treat every morning (that’s also vegan)…Sugarbear
I’m in the treat yourself club, so you’d think the fruity-flavored turquoise Sugarbear Pro gummy would be something I’d look forward to! Unfortunately, I was underwhelmed by the taste. I’d rather save the gram of sugar and 10 calories for a treat of my choosing, anyway!
Still, if you’re looking for a gummy that’s vegan (plus gluten-free, gelatin-free, dairy-free, soy-free, nut-free, egg-free, and/or wheat-free) this could be a good option to consider!
MyBiotin ProClinical only contains the supplement you signed up for—plus it’s vegan, sugar-free, gluten-free, and free from the top eight allergens. While it may not be as sweet as Sugarbear, I’m more than happy to pop it every morning with a sip of water (no meal necessary) and save my treat allowance for a better time! Plus, the serving size is only 1 capsule a day, and they’re super easy to swallow!
For real results in 3 weeks…MyBiotin
I was ready for thicker hair to be a waiting game—so I was amazed when I started to see thicker hair in under a month. That’s MyBiotin ProClinical for you. I’m even told my results will continue to improve in the 9 weeks to come, so I’m not stopping now (or, maybe, ever)!
Speaking of “forever,” I subscribed to recurring shipments of MyBiotin ProClinical so it arrives on the reg, which brought my first month's cost down to $27.95 from $39.95 + shipping for a one-time purchase. Extremely worth it, in my opinion!
Sugarbear Pro gummies, comparatively, cost $29.99 for one month and $28.49 when you subscribe. It’s a little cheaper—then again, Sugarbear didn’t cause my jaw to drop because of my noticeably thicker hair and smoother skin.
The Results: MyBiotin has my Leo mane looking stellar!
I knew biotin was a supplement that supported hair and nails, but I didn’t anticipate how effective MyBiotin ProClinical would be in making the magic happen!
It was noticeably fuller and thicker hair after only 3 weeks that made me a believer—to say nothing of my healthier skin! This supplement truly is the stuff of dreams.
