5 Ways To Achieve Thicker & Fuller Hair

5 Ways To Achieve A Thicker & Fuller Head Of Hair

Ever seen a friend put her hair up and think, “My God, how do you have so much hair? What makes your hair thicker and fuller”?

Some of us don’t have naturally thick hair. Others may have health issues that cause overall hair thinning. 

No matter the reason, most of us long for thicker, fuller hair.

Is it possible to grow thicker hair?

There are a few things you can do to help encourage hair growth and kick those hair follicles into high gear.

Let’s go over a few hair-thickening tips you can try.



5 Ways to Achieve Thicker & Fuller Hair Naturally



1. Hair scalp massages. 

Daily scalp massages have been proven to stop hair loss and thicken hair density. 

Scalp massage gently increases blood circulation to hair follicles. This encourages these follicles to sprout new growth.

In a 2016 study, participants saw a significant increase in hair thickness after massaging their scalp for just 4 minutes every day for 6 months.

How to get thicker hair? Daily scalp stimulation can be a game-changer.

2. Stop over-washing your hair.

Run-of-the-mill shampoos are excessively drying.

They're stripping the hair’s natural oils and proteins every day. They're damaging. 

This can lead to hair being dry and easily broken. The scalp needs those natural oils for a healthy hair growth cycle.

Opt for sulfate-free shampoos that clean away dirt, grease, and grime but don’t harshly strip the hair.

Sulfate shampoo feels like an assault on the hair. 

Nourish and support your hair growth with gentle products instead.

3. Brush hair carefully to reduce breakage.

Brush your hair gently. 

Start at the bottom and work your way up to reduce friction on your scalp. 

This will help avoid hair breakage and pulling out hair that's hard to untangle. 

You wouldn't want to damage your hair follicles.

Be gentle to your scalp.

4. Get your hair vitamins and minerals.

Greens, fats, and proteins are incredibly linked to hair health.

Make sure to get adequate protein, healthy fats, and omega-3s to help support new hair growth. 

Vitamins you want to focus on for hair health are:

  • Biotin
  • Vitamin D
  • Vitamin C
  • Omega-3 fatty acids
  • Vitamin A
  • Iron
  • Zinc


5. Address any hormonal imbalances.

Often, when we experience hair loss it’s because of hormonal imbalances or hormonal sensitivities. 

Hair loss can be due to:

  • pregnancy
  • childbirth
  • pre-menopausal or menopausal
  • thyroid conditions
Sex hormones imbalance, such as excessive androgen levels can also cause hair loss.

If you are experiencing hormonal imbalance, home remedies to make hair thicker and fuller aren’t going to help fix the root cause. 

Talk to your doctor about the hair thinning symptoms you might be experiencing. 

Seek hormonal treatment if necessary. 

When hormonal imbalances are corrected, your hair growth should return to your baseline.

Fake it 'til you make it

Increasing hair thickness or reversing hair thinning takes time and consistent intervention. 

In the meantime, fake it 'til you make it.

Using volumizing products and staying away from heavy hair ones can help give the illusion of thicker hair.

Ask your hairstylist about haircuts for thin hair to look thicker. 

A more blunt cut can generally help give that thick-as-possible illusion.

Do you have natural thicker and fuller hair? What do you do to achieve it? 

Wait! I've got more stories for you...
