5 products to invest in to reverse hair thinning

I often have this question: How is one supposed to wake up fresh, happy, and ready to take on the day when you see a design created by your hair strands on your pillow? Can you relate? Do you also have a tough time keeping your hair attached to your head? Has the volume of your hair taken a massive hit over the years? If you're vigorously nodding, just know that you're not alone in this rickety boat. Hair thinning is one of the most common concerns. However, that doesn't mean there is no way to breathe some life back into your hair and bring back some of its former glory.  

There are many reasons for hair thinning including stress, lack of oiling hair care, and smoking. But the two most common reasons are genetic hair loss and ageing—over the years, our hair just grows much finer and weaker. This makes it seem like we are losing volume by the minute. Whichever category you fall into, there are things you can do to crawl out of this hair-thinning hole. We've curated a list of products that work like a magic spell on your hair. Take a look!
