How to thicken thinning hair.<\/b><\/h2>\n

If you have thinning hair and aren\u2019t quite ready to take the plunge and shave your head, then there are ways to thicken your thinning hair. None of them are miracles of course and eventually you may have to come to that crossroads many balding men come to. <\/span>\u201cTo shave your head or not to shave your head\u201d<\/span><\/i>, that is the question that you will one day face.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But until that day let’s go over some common questions about thickening thinning hair and the options you have for thickening it.<\/b><\/p>\n

How to make hair thicker and fuller naturally for men.<\/b><\/h2>\n

If you’re a man experiencing thinning hair and you want to make the most out of what you still have left to buy yourself some time to get used to your state of male pattern baldness<\/a>, there are ways for you to make your hair thicker and fuller naturally.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, the word naturally has different meanings for different people. However, I want to explore and leave no stone unturned in your quest to thicken and make your hair look full.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

This will include a regimen of not only proper grooming and keeping your hair and more importantly your scalp, pores and follicles clean, but will keep the bacteria at bay, which can cause ingrown hairs and and and not allow your hair to grow as thick as natural as possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This requires you to use shampoos, conditioners as well as exfoliating to make sure your scalp and hair follicles are kept clean.<\/strong><\/p>\n

You see, when your follicles start to clog, not only do ingrown hairs form, but your hair will not grow out as thick and full as it should naturally. If your hair follicles are clean and free of debris, then we are talking fuller and thicker by slight percentages.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, when you multiply those very slight percentages over the thousands of hair follicles you have on your head, it can make some difference in the thickness and health of your hair.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So keeping your head and scalp clean not only by using shampoo but also keeping your scalp clean and exfoliated, free of oil, bacteria and fungus that can all week havoc within those precious hair follicles as well<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>\n

That’s the first line of defence.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now once they are growing as healthy as possible from the hair follicles, it\u2019s time to take care of those precious strands of hair.<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n

This is where you\u2019ll want to use all natural shampoos, conditioners, serums and possibly hair treatment oils to fortify and strengthen those precious hairs you got.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Many of these shampoos, conditioners, etc. contain thickening agents like panthenol and keratin. Although most include more natural ingredients like biotin and other vitamins too.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, it\u2019s usually the keratin and panthenol that actually makes your hair thicker along with the biotin. <\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, there are other, not natural products like minoxidil and propecia that are FDA approved, which can not only thicken the hair on your scalp, but regrow some of the hair that you\u2019ve lost as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

Can hair grow back after thinning?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Hair can grow back after thinning.<\/strong> There are a few ways to not only grow back some of your lost hair but also help prevent further thinning and balding as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The sooner you catch your thinning and <\/strong>baldness and if the faster you can react the better your chances of a successful outcome in growing back your thinning hair.<\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ll include at least some of the methods mentioned above but add all existing but include some more intensive measures like derma rolling, the use of minoxidil and propecia as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Outside of those three methods is also the use of PRP for hair loss. I have a post written about it here, \u201c<\/span>Propecia, Minoxidil, Derma Rollers and PRP for Hair Loss. Do they work?<\/b><\/a>\u201d, that you can read. <\/span><\/p>\n

Short of these are more invasive medical solutions like hair transplantation surgery.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, if you want a more cosmetic and less invasive alternative to hair transplantation and you don’t want to go under the knife, there are options like hair systems or toupees that you can check out.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, short of getting a <\/strong>hair system or toupee, you can look into topical hair fillers called hair fibers.<\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n

You can use them by basically picking out the color closest to your own natural hair color and simply shaking the tiny keratin filaments over your thinning and balding<\/a> areas.<\/span><\/p>\n

These keratin fibers attach themselves to your thinning hair<\/a>, thickening them. There are downsides of course.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

First of all, they are not waterproof and if you find yourself in a wet situation, they could detach from your hair strands and run down your forehead, your neck, etc. looking like mascara streaks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Now there are holding sprays specifically made to help keep these hair fibers in place that you should use to top off your styling.<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n

The holding spray should help make those hair fibers more water-resistant and less prone to streaking.<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n

But then again nothing is guaranteed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Secondly, they may rub off onto your (or someone else’s) fingers and hands when touched. This could make for some embarrassing situations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Short or long? What is the best haircut for fine, thin hair?<\/b><\/h2>\n

I know you may be tempted to try to grow out your thinning hair. The logic being and understandably so, that your longer hair may help cover over your thinning areas of your scalp. <\/span><\/p>\n

Perhaps you are under the impression that your longer hair will distract and take away attention from the fact that you are thinning on top.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
