We’d all be lying if we said we didn’t want a head full of healthy, full, and thick hair! When we’re young, we tend to neglect and under appreciate having luscious locks without having to put in much effort. It’s usually not until we get older when we notice that our hair is getting thinner by the second, and it’s time to step up our hair game! 

To achieve fuller, thicker hair, it’s probably not enough to just brush, apply any kind of product, and go. It’s essential to keep the right products in your hair arsenal containing healthy and effective ingredients to reach your hair goals.

BIOTIN, BIOTIN, BIOTIN!

We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: don’t forget to incorporate biotin into your hair routine! Whether you take biotin supplements, eat biotin-rich foods, or use biotin-infused hair products, it’s one of the essential vitamins to combat thinning hair.   

The quickest way to start improving your hair texture and appearance is to wash with the Biotin & Collagen Shampoo and Conditioner and a weekly treatment of the Biotin & Collagen Hair Mask. Biotin, otherwise known as vitamin B7, not only restores hydration to give your hair a smoother appearance, but it can stimulate hair growth. 

If your hair is looking thin and sparse, you could be biotin deficient. Don’t worry; there’s nothing that a biotin-rich diet and some biotin-infused hair products can’t fix!

AVOID OVER-WASHING

Despite the first tip involving shampoo and conditioner, we also want to remind you to be careful of over-washing! Using a thickening or biotin-infused shampoo will do wonders for your hair, but overdoing anything will likely result in the opposite effect.  Washing your hair too many times throughout the week, especially on a daily basis, will strip the hair of its natural oils. You might think getting rid of your natural oils is a good thing, but over time it’s damaging to your scalp, and a healthy scalp is key to hair growth and lustrous shine.

CASTOR OIL

Speaking of a healthy scalp, if you’ve never used a scalp treatment, start using our Jamaican Black Castor Oil for healthy and robust hair. Castor oil is rich in vitamin E and fatty acids that work to thicken the hair, stimulate growth, and soothe scalp irritation.  

This product can be used in two different ways: as a daily oil or as a deep-penetrating treatment. For everyday use, either apply the oil to damp hair or on dry hair to tame frizziness and add shine. Or, use the oil as a treatment by applying it to your scalp, covering your head with a plastic cap, and sit under the hairdryer for 30 minutes. It might be time-consuming, but self-care time is always worth it!

DRY SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER

If you’ve ever gone under some serious hair training, meaning you trained your hair to produce less oils by washing it less, then you probably know and love dry shampoo! If not, then it might be your next miracle product to save your hair from looking oily as you try washing it less, and beyond that, it can give you some extra volume. 

While dry shampoo is pretty popular in the hair industry, there’s not a lot being said about the importance of dry conditioner. Using a dry shampoo and conditioner in conjunction with each other not only revives dirty hair without any water needed but also lifts your roots to create volume.  

All you need to do is give the dry shampoo a good shake, hold the can about 8-10 inches away from your scalp, generously spray to your roots, massage the product in, and brush it out. Next, grab the dry conditioner, hold it the same distance from your hair, and spray from the mid-shaft to your ends. This might become your favorite hair trick, and it’s safe to say that you’ll be thanking us later!
