8 tips on how to thicken your hairs appearance

When you're having a great hair day you feel great. You know that you're looking great and therefore this feeling transmits to your inner and outer feelings.
Here at TenT we are all about the idea that if you look great you feel great and with that in mind here are 7 tips on how you can help thicken the appearance of your hair:
  • Proper Nutrition: A well-balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and proteins can contribute to healthier hair. Include foods like fruits, vegetables, lean meats, nuts, and seeds to support hair growth and strength. It is also worth adding a hair supplement to your regime to ensure your body is supplied with enough nutrition to help the hair. The body has a tendency to tier nutritional importance, with hair often the last to receive the necessary nutrition.
  • Avoid Heat and Chemical Damage: Frequent use of hot styling tools (e.g., flat irons, curling irons) and chemical treatments (e.g., perms, relaxers) can damage your hair and make it look thinner. Minimize heat styling and opt for gentle, natural hairstyles when possible.
  • Thickening Shampoo and Conditioner: Look for products specifically designed to add volume and thickness to your hair. These formulas often contain ingredients that help to stimulate the roots and fight DHT.
  • Avoid Heavy Styling Products: Heavy styling products like waxes and creams can weigh down your hair, making it look flat and less fuller. Opt for lightweight products that can add volume, like a sea salt spray (our sea mist spray will do a good job).
  • Blow Drying Upside Down: If you have longer hair flip your head upside down while blow-drying your hair. This technique helps create lift at the roots, adding volume and the illusion of thicker hair.
  • Use a Wide-Toothed Comb: When combing or detangling your hair, use a wide-toothed comb instead of a brush. This reduces breakage and prevents unnecessary pulling, which can make hair appear thinner over time.
  • Choose a Suitable Hairstyle: Opt for a haircut that adds volume and texture to your hair. Shorter hairstyles tend to make hair appear fuller, while longer hairstyles can weigh hair down and make it look thinner. If you’d like to keep it longer consider getting a layered haircut. Layers can create the illusion of thickness and add movement to your hair. Speak with your barber or hair dresser to discuss the best options for you.
  • Flip your hair while drying: A superb tip it you really want to thicken your hair is to dampen hair take a brush (or comb), form a side parting (ideally on the opposite to your normal parting) and brush while drying in direction of the hair. Once done, flip the parting to the other side and do the same. Do this one more time on each side and you hair will feel and look extremely thick and full.
