Are you on a quest for thicker, fuller hair? Perhaps you’ve got fine hair that struggles to hold any kind volume, or you are looking to treat thinning hair or hair loss? Whatever the reason, we’re here to help you achieve beautiful hair that is full of body and texture with the very best hair thickening shampoos available.

How do hair thickening shampoos work?

Hair thickening shampoos are specially designed to work with fine hair, naturally thinning hair and anyone who has experienced hair loss.

Hair thickening shampoos work by plumping out each strand of hair to give better volume and nourish the hair follicles to encouraging them to grow stronger[1]. Many hair thickening shampoos include ingredients such as Caffeine, Niacinamide, Keratin Proteins and Copolymers to help encourage stronger hair growth.

What is the difference between thickening shampoo and volumising shampoo?

Volumising shampoo often use lightweight ingredients so that your hair isn’t weighed down which makes it look flatter. Thickening shampoo on the other hand targets the individual strands of your hair, rather than just the roots. By using the proteins mentions above, thickening shampoo plumps each strand to make your hair look much fuller.
