Try a pre-wash treatment
Boost your hair’s health with a repairing and strengthening pre-wash formula like PS… Pro Bond Pro-Repair Pre-Shampoo Treatment, £4.50, Primark. If you are somebody who has damaged locks due to heat styling or bleaching, this product will resurrect broken and fragile strands. For best results, follow the instructions to the letter.
Boost the roots
If you have fine, limp hair, then give your roots some oomph.
Massage John Frieda ProFiller+ Thickening Shampoo, £8.99, Boots, into your scalp. It contains biotin to strengthen and hyaluronic acid for hydration, to help gradually transform thinning locks. You’ll need patience, but the best things come to those who wait!
Nourish from within
‘Supplements are vital for hair regrowth,’ explains trichologist Hannah Gaboardi. ‘Often hair loss can be due to the body lacking certain nutrients, such as zinc, biotin, iron and collagen.’ Viviscal Hair Growth Supplement, from £29.99, Holland & Barrett, includes the nutrients needed to encourage hair growth, as well as an exclusive marine complex called AminoMar C. In clinical trials, 94% of users noticed more volume after six months of taking them.
Gentle tools
Using the wrong brush can tug on delicate hairs and pull them out, exacerbating hair loss. Bouclème Detangling Wet Brush, £12, boucleme.co.uk, is ideal and works on hair types and curl patterns. The soft bristles glide through hair and stimulate follicles. Also, avoid brushing wet strands as they are more prone to shedding.
Volume-boosting curls
There are so many styling tricks you can learn to make fine hair look fuller. Avoid straight styles, which can appear flat. Instead, try adding some waves with BaByliss Berry Crush Curls Curlin
