1. START WITH CARING FOR YOUR SCALP

Healthy hair grows from a healthy scalp, so various scalp issues like dandruff, product build-up, physical damage or skin medical conditions may disrupt the hair growth cycle Therefore, you need to care for your scalp, just as you would for the skin on your face. If you are practicing skincare and investing in products for your face, your scalp should benefit from the same treatment. Here's what you can do to take better care of your scalp:

  • Wash your hair regularly with gentle products that won’t strip the scalp or the hair from the oil that keeps it moisturized. Here’s how to figure out how often should you wash your hair
  • When shampooing the hair, massage your scalp for a couple of minutes. This will stimulate the blood to the scalp and hair follicles, helping hair growth
  • If you are dealing with dandruff, or a dry scalp, use dedicated products that will treat the issue
  • Get a scalp peeling once in a while to remove build-up and deeply cleanse. Our Scalp Dermabrasion Treatment is great for that because it’s basically like a facial for the scalp!

2. EAT THE RIGHT NUTRIENTS

Our hair needs the right nutrients to grow, so if you want to get thicker hair, one area to investigate is your diet. A healthy hair diet needs to be rich in protein as well as iron, omega-3, zinc, selenium and vitamins like biotin. You can get enough of these if you have a balanced diet, but if you are struggling with hair thinning, you can take hair supplements formulated to support growth.

3. PRACTICE CORRECT HAIR CARE

If you want to get thicker hair your hair care routine is very important. This is where you can make a big difference, simply by using the right products and addressing a few ‘bad habits’ that might damage your hair. First of all, if you have thinning hair, use hair care products that are formulated to specifically target that. Our Nioxin System Kits contain three products designed to address the signs of thinning and contain:

  • a cleansing shampoo that will gently clean the scalp and the hair
  • a conditioner that nourishes both the scalp and the hair
  • a targeted scalp treatment

The System Kits address the needs of different hair types, and you can find the right one by using our Consultation Tool. Getting thicker hair takes time, but until then you can make your hair look thicker and fuller with the right styling products and hairstyles. We have a range of thickening styling products that are easy to use whilst caring for the hair and scalp, but also a few hair styling ideas and tips for different stages of hair thinning. Additionally, don’t hesitate to ask your hairdresser for the right haircut that will make the hair look fuller and emphasize what you’ve got. You can also make your hair look thicker through hair color: subtle highlights through the hair are a great way to add dimension. Also avoid causing more physical damage to the hair by using heat styling tools or brushing the hair when wet for example. If you do need to use heat to style or dry your hair, make sure to apply a heat protectant product before.
