Hair today, gone tomorrow: 5 must-have products for thicker, fuller hair

Everyone wants thick, luscious hair – whether you’re a man or a woman. It’s normal to shed between 50 and 100 strands of hair a day, but when the situation worsens and your shower trap starts clogging, it might be a warning sign. 

Hair thinning and hair loss are caused by varying factors. The most common scenario is temporary shedding due to free radicals, which directly damage hair follicles and cells that produce hair pigment. Then there are underlying problems linked to genetics, where a simple blood test can help reveal low levels of testosterone. 

Regardless of the root problem, it’s vital to address the problem as soon as possible to minimise the damage. We’ve shortlisted a few luxury haircare products that specifically nourish your scalp and stop blocking hair follicles. That said, be sure to consult a certified dermatologist if symptoms persist.

Dede Shampoo by Davines

Sometimes, less is definitely more. Davines’ sulphate-free, foamy gel shampoo is formulated for all hair types and is designed to gently cleanse while retaining the hair’s natural moisture. It uses ingredients that are less commonly seen in the market, like red celery extract sourced in Italy, as well as mineral salts that work to keep hair balanced and clean.
