Are you a vegetarian/vegan? it's a tell-tale sign of vegans to have weak, opaque hair.

You could fix that right up by eating a lot more meat.

Keto cannot function with a vegan diet. You don't get anywhere near the kind of proteins with a regular vegan gimmick, keto makes it even harder since starches are everywhere in plants.

I would suggest biotin or just eating more meat. As an above poster pointed out, many vegans and vegetarians suffer from thinning hair and wrinkled skin because they are deficient in biotin. Getting nutrients through food rather than a supplement is generally superior.

The downfall of keto is a compound of less fiber and retards assuming you're only eating meat and butter. Add spinach and other dark green leafy veggies to the diet, restrict your caloric intake. I'm rolling around 2 meals a day on a 1.4k cal limit (at least I try my best to be under it) and supplement the fiber with Fibersol-2. And water. Drink water. The amount you're drinking? It's not enough, drink more.

I did keto for a couple months a few years ago and yep, most people do it wrong. Also gotta be careful what fats you're eating since too much butter and other things like that are really bad for you. I did a ton of olive oil, olives, almonds, fatty fish, some ground beef, spinach, eggs. Also lots of salt is good to avoid the keto headaches.

im not sure what it might do for your hair or nails, but from what ive read it doesnt seem to translate to dermal collagen for anti aging purposes, so a lot of it is hogwash at least for that intended use.

don't take biotin it worsens acne and breaks you out and i don't know if it's even proven that it helps with hair growth

biotin deficiency is very rare and apparently it is absorbed through the same pathway vitamin B5 is so they compete with each other so when you take biotin as a supplement it lowers your vitamin B5 absorption which causes getting acne
