To ask for your recommendations for a really good thickening shampoo?

[FrankieDoyle]

Hi all,

I suffer with Trichotillomania and it can get pretty bad sometimes. My anxiety has been increased since lockdown and this whole awful pandemic. I am home working and feel anxious most days.

I have been trying hard to stop pulling but its been extremely difficult for the last month.
My hair is very thin on top and doesn't feel healthy.

Does anyone have any really amazing recommendations for a great repair and thickening shampoo?

Thank you x

I use watermans grow me shampoo and conditioner from Amazon. It is amazing!!

Watermans Grow Me shampoo and conditioner you can get it on Amazon. A hairdresser recommended it to me x

Wash very infrequently and dry shampoo in between. It will give more volume.

Loreal Elvive Fibrology is good for mine.

I hope you can feel better soon

I use the watermans shampoo and conditioner to9 and have noticed that my fall out is a lot less with it. There is also a serum that you can try. I buy it off amazon too

My hair is dreadful and has been for years. I’ve got thyroid problems. I’ve bought so many products over the years that have promised to transform my hair but this is the only one that’s actually worked. After the first wash it looked good and I never got the disappointment I’ve got from other products when they stopped working. I’m never going to win prizes for swishy hair but it looks healthy enough now.

Thank you!

Have to use gloves to stop you’re palms going hairy!

Another one recommending Watermans. I’ve tried loads and that’s the one that really helped

The only one that works for me is aussie mega shampoo. Everything else makes my hair greasy. I have to wash it every day as it is so fine and I am allergic to dry shampoo.

Interested in watermans now though

I like the Living Proof range. The full thickening cream and the spray.

I have been using alpecin shampoo to prevent loss (I don’t pull my hair out) and regaine scalp treatment to encourage new growth

If you can afford it, Virtue shampoo and conditioner is absolutely incredible for building volume. It is the best I have ever used. So expensive though!

Thanks I will def try some of these!

I’ve ordered some of that Waterman’s shampoo/conditioner. It had better be bloody good, the price of it!

How much? It was £13 on Amazon I think

Roots from Lush is good.

Avoid shampoo with sulphates. In amazed the difference it's made to.my hair

It’s arrived. The bottles are smaller than I was expecting 🤔

I’ve also got Phytodensia which is lovely but even more pricey than the Windle one. I bought a large bottle of the Windle so although it was pricey initially it’s good cost per use.
The Phytodensia really makes my hair big .

These are all the products in teeny sizes if you want to try.

The Maui bamboo fiber shampoo is wonderful. It also moisturises hair and is cruelty free/vegan.

Oh and you can buy it in a supermarket!
