The best shampoos for thinning and hair loss.

Ever feel like your hair seemingly thinned overnight? One day, it’s full and bouncy; the next, it looks a little sparse around your hairline. Hair loss is entirely normal, we are all preprogrammed to lose hair but how fast or how much depends on genetics (age/hormones) and lifestyle factors (stress, diet and vitamin deficiencies).

While hair loss is partly predetermined, you can take steps to create ideal conditions for hair growth, such as using a shampoo specifically formulated for thinning hair. The right shampoo can exfoliate  the buildup of excess product and sebum on your scalp, minimise shedding, promote growth, nourish follicles, and support overall hair health.
