Are your fine, silky locks lacking volume or texture, appearing limp? This could be indicative of low-density hair. Hair thickness refers to the circumference of each individual hair strand. To test it on yourself, simply take one and compare it against a thread – if yours is thicker, that indicates thick hair!
Haircuts
Haircuts can have an immense effect on how your hair appears. From short styles like the pixie cut to longer ones with luxurious locks, there are an array of breathtaking and stylish cuts for you to try out.
For curly locks, consider opting for a longer wavy shag with loose layers and face-framing bangs that highlights your gorgeous curls while providing a sexy and seductive appearance. Or you could try something casual such as a texturized and texturized layered bob with extra volume and dimension that instantly creates interest in your locks.
Styling
If you have thin hair, getting it thicker may seem an impossible feat. Even after trying thickening products and lifestyle adjustments, your locks may still appear flat or limp with lackluster volume. Luckily, trichologists, scalp experts, and hairstylists share their secrets for creating thicker strands.
Staying creative with your hair styles can add extra texture and dimension. A simple half up, half down style is easy to achieve and works especially well if you have bangs. A bandanna or headband piece adds some flair, or perhaps try a top knot, high ponytail, braid or any number of updos; just remember to use heat protection products before styling any updo.
Home Remedies
No matter the thickness of your locks, home remedies exist that can help increase volume and make them appear healthier. The first step should be selecting volumizing products that are cruelty-free, vegan and sulfate free; such products contain polymers, starch and talc which add thickness to strands.
Use natural ingredients like onion juice, coconut oil and castor oil to stimulate the scalp and encourage hair growth. Apply these remedies weekly until you see tangible results.
However, it should be remembered that not all these techniques will work for everyone as your hair follicles are predetermined by genetics and hormones – no product can completely change their structure. If thinning or hair fall persists despite best efforts at treatment, medical assistance should be sought immediately as this could indicate serious health conditions.
Diet
Diet can have a significant impact on the appearance of your hair. While it is impossible to change the thickness of natural thin follicles, a healthy diet and nutritional lifestyle can improve their appearance by adding protein-rich meals that supply vitamins and minerals necessary to thicken thin locks.
