What is the better hair growth supplement - Nutrafol or HR23+? 

We often get asked about hair growth supplements, and which one is the most effective. When it comes to multi-vitamin hair supplements that are effective, there aren't actually a lot to choose from. Most hair supplements are ineffective, but there are a few that can give you good value for your money.

Viviscal, Nutrafol, and HR23+ are seen as the most popular hair supplements on the market, but are they the most effective? A more specific question that is frequently asked is: What is better - Nutrafol or HR23+?

So, for the sake of this debate, let's put Viviscal to one side and focus only on Nutrafol and HR23+.  Let us try to establish which of the two is the better and more effective supplement for hair growth.

Nutrafol

Nutrafol is a hair wellness supplement for men and women.  It has two separate supplements, one for men and one for women, respectively. The ingredients are not too dissimilar, with most of the core additives in both supplements.

The product(s) is safe to use and free from any harsh drugs and chemicals.  Its effectiveness is still unclear, as there seems to be a lack of sufficient reviews and testimonials.

Nutrafol recently went through a rebrand, which may explain why these products look new to you. The ingredients are the same as previously, so long-term users should not experience any dip in performance. The website claims to be all about 'science', but upon inspecting the ingredients in this supplement, there is nothing revolutionary about this formula.  But that isn't to say it's not good.  The ingredients are good, and the majority of additives can benefit the hair hugely.

HR23+

HR23+ is a hair restoration supplement designed to help prevent hair loss and support healthy hair growth in men and women, all through one convenient capsule.  This supplement contains 23 key ingredients that contribute to optimal hair health.

HR23+ is also safe to take, and is free from any side-effects.  HR23+ is the only hair supplement that continually develops and improves its formula.

The website does not make any far-fetched claims, and like Nutrafol, this supplement is not an medically approved as a hair loss treatment. However, HR23+ can help prevent the formation of DHT and also promote healthy hair growth.

The ingredients in this supplement make it one of the best of its kind on the market, for both effectiveness and value for money.

How does Nutrafol and HR23+ compare? 

If truth be told, there are actually quite a few similarities between the two supplements. Both contain a similar core of ingredients, and both brands have a similar philosophy.  However, that's not to say they are the same thing, because both also contain additional minerals and extracts that work in conjunction with their core ingredients.


Both supplements came to market in 2015. HR23+ has the higher success rating of the two with a customer feedback rating of 89% (86% for men, and 92% for women, respectively). Nutrafol, upon last inspection, has a rating of 82%. HR23+ now distributes their product to over 100 countries worldwide. Nutrafol is only available in selected areas.  It is unclear why this is.

HR23+ is the more affordable of the two products. A single bottle of HR23+ will cost you around £55 ($66), whereas a single bottle of Nutrafol will set you back around £65 ($86).  HR23+ can be purchased at an even lower price when bought in multi-packs. 



Both Nutrafol and HR23+ contain 120 capsules per bottle, which covers you for one month (30 days). Nutrafol contains Marine Collagen, meaning it is not suited for vegan and vegetarian.  However, HR23+ does not contain any ingredients that derive from meat, therefore it is vegan and vegetarian friendly.

Which supplement works the best? 

Nutrafol and HR23+ have many similarities, and if we were comparing the two supplements back in 2015, it would be a much more closely fought contest. However, due to HR23+'s development of its formula (tweaks were made in 2018, 2022, and in 2023), along with its influx of highly positive reviews, it is difficult to look beyond HR23+ as the superior supplement of the two.
