Although we cannot change our genes, and some medically-related hair loss can’t be reversed, there is much we can do to improve the look of fine and thinning hair. Some solutions can be long-lasting, such as serums, hair transplants, and laser therapy and their results can be excellent, even though they might take some time to make a full effect. But there are DIY ways to disguise thinning hair and achieve a fuller and healthier look.One of the easiest and fastest solutions to create a fuller look is getting a short and layered haircut which will usually result in a healthier and more voluminous look. Another solution is getting some light color or highlights. Hair color swells the hair cuticle and lends hair more volume and a tone a few shades lighter than your natural one will disguise parting that has become too wide or patches of scalp.
Using a volumizing shampoo that does not contain sulfates, as well as a volumizing mousse or spray when styling are also good ways of helping fine hair look thicker and fuller. Remembering to use a round brush, blow drying hair in the opposite direction of the way it falls naturally helps with volume too.
Hair fibers, which are tiny pigmented cellulose threads, can be applied to large hair parts. These fill the gaps in a natural looking way as they bond to the hair resulting in a thickening effect. Choose a plant-based formula that will be gentle to the scalp.
And a little piece of additional advice to save your strands: wash your hair every two days to avoid product buildup, avoid very hot showers and scorching blow drying temperatures, and eat a healthy protein-based diet.
