Products for Thinning Hair - Australia
Treating thinning hair has two parts. Firstly, you want to make hair stronger, thicker and prevent hair breakage. Secondly, you want to thicken the hair and improve volume.
What Causes Thinning Hair?
Thinning hair can be caused by various factors, including genetics (male pattern baldness), hormonal changes, stress, poor diet, or even certain medications. Age is also a common factor, as hair naturally becomes thinner over time.
How Can I Tell If My Hair is Thinning?
Signs of thinning hair include more noticeable scalp in certain areas, hair falling out more frequently, or a gradual reduction in hair volume. The hairline may also begin to recede, and hair at the crown of the head may thin first.
Can Thinning Hair Be Reversed?
In many cases, thinning hair can be managed or slowed down, but reversing it entirely depends on the cause.
Should I Brush or Comb Thinning Hair Differently?
Use a wide-tooth comb or a soft brush to gently detangle thinning hair. Avoid aggressive brushing, especially when your hair is wet, as it can cause additional breakage.
What are the Best Styling Products for Thinning Hair?
Light hold products like creams and texture sprays can add volume without weighing down the hair. Avoid heavy products like gels or waxes, which can make thinning hair appear flat. Sea salt sprays or volumizing powders are excellent for boosting texture and fullness. Consider using Shear Revival’s Gleodream Texture Powder which adds impressive volume to the hair. While Patrick’s M1 Pomade contains ingredients that instantly swell the hair shaft, giving it a thick appearance.
Are There Shampoos for Thinning Hair?
Yes, especially shampoos with medicated ingredients can help strengthen hair and stimulate growth. These shampoos also improve scalp health, which is key to maintaining thicker hair. Patrick's SH+ Ultra Thickening Shampoo Plus, is designed to help men with thinning hair by addressing both hair strength and scalp health. It contains ingredients - a unique recovery complex - that stimulates the hair follicles and is formulated with active thickening agents that plump the hair strands, creating a fuller appearance after use. Fortifying ingredients strengthen the hair.
