Whether from stress, diet, ageing, lifestyle shifts or neglect, thinning hair is a problem we would rather avoid. Here are tips to restore healthy locks and achieve enviable crowning glory
Hair has held various symbolic meanings since time immemorial. Ancient Egyptian pharaohs made and wore elaborate wigs or headdresses to signify their status and power, and among Native American Plain tribes, long hair was a symbol of strength and courage. Today, sporting a shaved head may be a style symbol for some men (and even women), but there is no doubt that having a luscious head of hair is a sign of beauty, youth and health. According to research by Scandinavian Biolabs, British men are more afraid of losing their hair than their job! If thinning hair is your concern, it may be wise first to visit a trichologist to understand any root causes. Beyond diet, lifestyle, hormones and ageing, though, the condition of our tresses can be improved with the right products. Here are some recently launched stars to find space on your bathroom shelf.
