Keep your scalp and tresses happy with these gentle but effective elixirs
There isn’t one hairstyle that works for everyone, but there is something that we can all definitely agree on – nobody wants thin, lacklustre hair. However, sometimes our hair can look a little on the sparse side, no matter how much we want it to be thick and healthy.
There are a number of reasons this can happen, and sometimes it’s just luck of the draw. Genetics can play a part – as you age, your hair can become thinner, sometimes resulting in hair loss. Add factors like stress, pregnancy and hormones, and even the thickest hair can sometimes lose its fullness.
Our lifestyles can also affect our hair – pollution, hard water and sun can all weaken locks, leaving them prone to breakage. Plus, regular colour or chemical treatments, and heat styling won’t do your hair any favours – even regularly wearing your hair in certain tight styles might cause it to fall out.
When it comes to reversing these factors, some are easier to change than others. Unfortunately there’s no instant cure for hair loss, or a quick way to make short hair become longer.
However, a good haircare ritual can create the best conditions for hair growth, and protect the hair that is already there. Investing in the right shampoo is a great way to start your journey towards thicker, happier hair.

We tried these shampoos over nearly two months, using each for at least three washes. They needed to be gentle enough to use regularly and promote hair and scalp health, creating the perfect conditions for hair growth.
The shampoos that impressed us the most provided a deep clean, plenty of foam and the added bonus of a pleasant scent. Our hair was left looking soft, shiny and plump, while our scalp felt cared for rather than stripped of its natural oils.
The Grow Gorgeous intense thickening shampoo is a delight to use from start to finish, strengthening every single hair and promoting beautiful volume. For a lower-priced option, opt for the Regrowz thickening shampoo, which is packed with natural goodness. And, if you want to splash out on a luxury product, then the Venn synbiotic polyamine shampoo is the ultimate beauty treat.
