12 Best Hair-Growth Products for Thinning and Shedding, According to Experts
11. Body Proud Exfoliating and Cleansing Body and Scalp Brush
One of the easiest (and cutest) items you can incorporate into your routine, Body Proud’s adorable little scalp brush won’t just look good in your shower—it’ll feel great too. Simply apply shampoo to your hair as you normally would, then let the little silicone brushes massage your scalp. Trichologist Angela Onuoha notes that most people don’t spend enough time properly cleansing their scalp, which can be one of the biggest causes of hair loss. “This brush works to increase blood circulation, which is important for optimal hair growth,” she says.
Pros: Affordable, easy to work into a routine; good de-stressing exercise; can be used on the body as well.
Cons: Some say the rubber nubs are a bit aggressive.
12. Nioxin Ultimate Power Serum
If you haven’t experienced tons of shedding, consider yourself extremely lucky, rare, and probably also genetically blessed. For the rest of us, trichologist Abbey Yung recommends Nioxin’s Ultimate Power Serum. “It helps keep strands locked into your head instead of prematurely shedding,” she says. It’s meant to be applied and left in hair, and the nozzle spray allows for easy application to targeted areas if you have specific places you’d like to focus on. Apply 15 pumps every day, and Yung says you should see results in eight weeks. The water-like formula is superlight, so it won’t mess with your style either.
