For those experiencing hair thinning or hair loss, finding a solution can feel like an uphill battle. With so many products available that make miraculous claims, it would seem that regrowing hair or restoring thinning hair is easy for anyone with a few extra dollars to spare. But product after product, promise after promise, too many women who suffer from hair loss find no resolve, quickly giving up and moving on to waste their hard-earned dollars on the next expensive product.
Hair loss is not only a physical condition, it has serious effects on self-esteem and self-confidence. Struggling with hair loss can make a woman feel self-conscious, adding to daily stress and anxiety that can lead to a build-up of the stress hormone cortisol—which has been proven to worsen hair thinning and loss.
Products that claim to miraculously restore hair growth often don’t actually provide lasting results. The problem is that hair loss rarely only has a single cause, and restoring thinning hair needs more than a single approach. To get the best results, topical hair loss treatments, dietary hair loss supplements, and changes in daily habits can work together to restore healthy, full hair.

Topical Products:
Topical hair loss products are used on the hair and scalp and work from the outside in to stimulate hair follicles. The most effective products combine conditioning ingredients, natural moisture boosting ingredients, and natural stimulating herbs that increase blood circulation to areas of thinning hair. Natural conditioners like coconut milk improve the health of hair cuticles, while natural moisturizers like jojoba and argan oils help to boost natural moisture in the hair and scalp, creating a healthy environment for hair growth. Dry, brittle hair breaks easily. Maintaining moisture and strength of existing hair enhances the appearance fullness and thickness of thinning hairlines.
Dietary Supplements:
While most of the nutrients needed to maintain healthy hair can be found in a balanced diet, some vitamin deficiencies can lead to hair thinning and loss. For example, hair loss is a primary symptom of zinc, vitamin D, iron, and biotin deficiencies. Supplementing these vitamins and minerals can prevent future hair loss, and in many cases have been proven to increase natural hair growth.
Daily Habits:
Hair loss from stress and anxiety is extremely common, particularly among women. Incorporating daily stress-management practices is an effective way to prevent hair loss. Meditation, daily exercise, and other self-care practices help to lower stress-induced cortisol levels in the body and can contribute to a healthier mind, body, and hairline.
The #1 Key to Restoring Hair:
Consistency. While there are many products that claim instant or short-term miraculous results, those who have found the greatest improvements maintain consistent, long-term use of effective products. Incorporating twice-daily use of both topical and supplemental hair restoration products over at least 30 days will surely provide noticeable improvement to thinning hair. Continued use, however, as well as maintaining healthy daily habits, increases the chances of full restoration of fuller, thicker hair. So while a two-week miracle-growth product may not work to grow hair instantly, natural products that condition, stimulate, and nourish the health of the hair and scalp work steadily with consistent use to naturally restore healthy hair.
