What To Do About Thinning Hair?

We all love thick, full hair and want it for our very own. Watching celebrities, we often envy their hair. It's long, luscious, thick and just perfectly styled. 

We may have had beautiful hair when we were younger, but as we age so does our hair. It thins, becomes brittle, breaks, splits and turns grey. But knowing why and what we can do about it the start. Firstly, anyone over 30 will eventually have thinner, finer hair. But keeping hair follicles healthy is the first step.

Many solutions and problems can be traced back to diet. Eating foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids like salmon and flaxseeds, as well as dark green vegetables, which are strong sources of vitamins A and C, needed by the follicles to produce sebum, which is hair’s natural conditioner. Also, eating eggs, beans and poultry are all foods that help with healthy hair. Eat high-protein, low-fat, low-carb foods, as well as taking the recommended 5,000 micrograms of biotin (a B vitamin) daily had been shown to help promote healthy hair growth.

Keratin Smoothing treatments are a great solution for thinning hair. This procedure coats your hair with the same protein that our hair and nails are made of. This leaves the hair stronger, smoother and less prone to damage and splitting. You can still color your hair with Keratin treatments, so no need to worry about gray.

Using Protein-laced styling products are another great option. As your hair thins, it gets weaker and less able to support its own weight, leading to breakage and loss. "Protein fortifies the hair shaft. It can actually stick itself into hair and pull splitting sections together. 

Keratin Treatments are a great way to smooth and tame the hair. Curly and Wavy hair will still keep its texture but it will be more manageable. Frizziness and humidity will not wreck havoc on your style. Your blowdry time will be practically cut in half and your hair will be gorgeous. We offer Brazilian blowout and Keratin Complex as options in our Salon. We've found that ladies with extremely over-processed, damaged and unhealthy hair have seen immediate results.

Lastly, hair extensions. Hair extensions are an immediate fix. They will replace lost strands and thickness the same day. As you take other measures to regrow hair, you don't have to feel self-conscious about your hair loss. Hair extensions are a great non-damaging way to add length and fullness to thinning hair. A number of techniques exist so you don't have to worry about them showing. There are quite a few available options.
