Guide: How To Get Thicker Hair From A Professional
The ONLY advice you will ever need if your trying to grow your hair.
Hormones and health play a role in achieving thicker hair.
Your hair makes such a difference to how you feel. It isn’t a shirt you can change or a skin spot you can conceal. It’s not an impulse buy that you can return either.
We have what we were born with and our job is to help you make the most of it.
Thinning hair is a problem as we age and when stress or hormones get out of whack. But there are incredible ways you can minimise the affects.
The team of professionals at Absolute Hair can help.
Factors including hormonal imbalances, thyroid issues, poor diet, and insufficient scalp circulation that increases the likelihood of not having thicker hair and losing it before you need to.
We really care that you have beautiful glossy healthy hair so here’s our list of ‘must dos’ and ‘try to dos’ to help you achieve the thicker hair that you love and deserve.
Here is a little more detail….
1 Get Enough Essential Fatty Acids
2 Ramp Up Collagen Production With Vitamin C
As we age collagen breaks down, causing hair to be more vulnerable to breaking and thinning. Boost collagen by getting more vitamin C for thicker hair.
Enjoy citrus fruits, strawberries, and red peppers. Supplementing with Vit C can help boost collagen production and it’s great for your skin.
3 Boost Bioton
Biotin, a water-soluble vitamin B encourages hair and scalp health. Dietary sources of biotin include nuts, brown rice, and oats.
A B-complex supplement that includes biotin and vitamin B6 can reduce hair thinning by increasing scalp circulation and rejuvenating hair follicles.
4 Boost Keratin Production with MSM
Methylsulfonylmethane aids in the production of keratin, the hair protein while doing double duty to strengthen hair follicles. Green vegetables, like Swiss chard, cabbage, alfalfa and watercress, contain a small amount of MSM.
Raw veggies are best but try cooked asparagus or beets. Also cow’s milk, meat, seafood, fruits and even coffee, tea, and best of all chocolate! (the dark kind of course)
MSM supplements are sold in health food stores and some pharmacies so check them out.
5 Get Your Iron
Iron is essential for hair growth so red meat, green leafy veg, leeks, cashews, dried fruit, and berries are your friend. You need vitamin C to fully absorb iron from your food so follow that steak with a juicy tangelo or Lemon Drizzle Cake
6 Give Your Hair A Mineral Boost
Minerals, silica, and zinc are critical for hair growth. You can supplement but cucumber, mango, greens, beans, celery, and asparagus are good sources.
Natural Organic silica is also found in horsetail herb. Foods high in zinc are pumpkin seeds, oysters, brazil nuts, eggs, and pecans.
7 Add The Herb, Saw Palmetto, Into Your Diet
Historically, saw palmetto has been used by herbalists for hair loss in both men and women. It works as a hormone balancer. Recent research has shown this herb to help with hair loss. Worth investigating.
8 Address A Possible Underactive Thyroid Gland
Hypothyroidism can cause thinning hair. Add sea vegetables like kelp, nori, dulse, kombu, and wakame, all of which are rich in iodine and may help to balance this condition.
9 Prevent Breakage With Vitamin E
Vitamin E nourishes damaged hair and prevents breakage. It helps the body to manufacture keratin. Foods high in vitamin E include sunflower seeds, almonds, pine nuts, dried apricots, spinach, and olives.
10 Boost Scalp Circulation With Rosemary Essential Oil
Rosemary essential oil has been traditionally used to increase circulation to the scalp.
Add a few drops of rosemary to coconut oil and massage your scalp then shampoo with our Energising Shampoo for a stimulated scalp tingling sensational experience.
Hair Treatments can help with scalp stimulation, to prevent breakage, and plump up your hair.
Without these little helpers, your hair can still feel lack luster and flat. Make the most of what you’ve got.
Olaplex it, Re-plump it, and Energise it.
