No. Only if you feel that a normal diet is not providing you with all the essential amino acids (which make proteins), then a supplement is alright to use. I used protein rich foods after lifting weights and it made a significant and noticeable difference in the muscle growth. I ate canned tuna, poultry, and red meats after a workout. If you want to bulk up and build muscle, then try a supplement of protein for one month. If you feel that the supplement did not help make your muscles bigger, then do not use and waste your money. If you eat a varied diet, supplements and unnecessary.
