Mane Hair Thickening Shampoo twin pack and a single Conditioner

Product Information

If you’re experiencing significant thinning or hair loss (as in, more than a few strands in the plughole), it’s important to get to the root (sorry) of the issue first. If this sounds like you, you’re more likely to find solace in a doctor’s appointment, rather than at the bottom of a shampoo bottle. Of course, you are not responsible and you are covered, as you write it in your shipment policy, in the very bottom of the screen. We gave 700 testers — all with self-diagnosed mild to extreme hair loss or thinning — a shampoo and conditioner set to trial for between one and two months. When shopping for a hair growth shampoo, Reavey suggests you look out for vitamins E, C, and Beta Carotene, which are antioxidants. They can help to increase blood flow and nutrient delivery to the scalp, stimulating hair growth and forming a protective layer around each hair strand to keep it healthy.

Anti-breakage shampoos and conditioners: these reinforce the structure of the hair strand, aiming to prevent breakages and splitting. According to Helen Reavey, expert trichologist and founder of Act+Acre, losing around 50-100 strands of hair daily is normal, but if hair loss exceeds this amount, taking both internal and external measures is recommended to manage shedding. To combat hair thinning or loss, tools such as hair growth shampoos, stimulating serums, and dermarollers can be effective. Additionally, making changes to your diet and finding ways to manage stress and anxiety can help. Avoid hair care products with silicones and sulphates, which can hinder the hair growth cycle. Reavey also emphasises the importance of diet for healthy hair growth. She explains that if hair follicles do not receive the right nutrients during the birth stage, there is a chance they grow much thinner, making them more brittle and susceptible to split ends and breakage. There are several reasons why you might be tempted to explore the world of hair-growth shampoos, from an ill-advised home haircut (we told you not to cut your own fringe) to bleach-related breakage. Root- or scalp-stimulating shampoos and conditioners: these aim to clear away root or scalp build-up and stimulate the hair follicles to encourage healthy hair growth.

The Power of Mane Hair Health

Maintaining scalp cleanliness is crucial for reducing the effects of DHT (a hormone linked to hair loss), which is carried through sweat and sebum. Confused? Don't panic. If your hair is stringy and stretchy, like chewing gum, you are a prime candidate for a dose of protein (bottle blondes, this is probably you). I received your product on Tuesday and I am very pleased with the way the products works. It gives my hair a natural look, covers all thinning areas and I’m pleasantly surprised at how strong it stays in the hair and does come out easy even with hard brushing. So thank you for making such a great product.” Hi, my husband uses your products and loves them. It has really boosted his confidence so thanks very much!”

I have been with your company for quite some time now and as i have said ‘ the product is brilliant'” In the GHI lab, we also assessed anti-breakage shampoos by combing through hair switches that were treated with the product(s) and comparing them to untreated hair switches. The easier the treated switches were to comb, the less risk of hair breakages and fall out in real life.

How To Use

While products such as minoxidil and finasteride have been proven to help with hair loss, they can have some less-than-ideal side effects, which include messing with your testosterone levels as well as dryness and irritation. The shampoos tested here are designed to reduce thinning and give the illusion of more hair, as opposed to reversing hair loss. So, if you're not ready to go full-on transplant, these products could be just what you need to keep your hair looking its best. The sad truth is that it’s highly unlikely a 'hair-growth' shampoo, conditioner or treatment will transform thinning strands into a waist-length mane at all. Yep, don’t believe everything you see on the internet. Dear Sir, thank you for an amazing product. I am finding a marked improvement in the quality of my hair. A very good result.”

Additionally, the natural sebum we produce is not able to moisturise the hair as the molecule is too big to penetrate, so washing regularly helps to moisturise the hair sufficiently for growth.’ Just a short note to let you know that Mane has been a fantastic product that I have been using for years in helping me camouflage my Alopecia Areata. I would be lost without it. It has definitely been a life saver in a society that places such an emphasis on the way we look, people including friends, family & work colleagues dont even notice the bald spots when I use Mane.” I’ve been buying this product for years and I don’t know what I’d do without it. It’s certainly the best on the market and your customer service is excellent! Again many thanks. It’s also worth keeping an eye out for stimulating ingredients. ‘Rosemary oil, lavender, ginseng, peppermint oil, and basil leaf extract work to promote hair growth while stimulating blood flow, ultimately strengthening the hair follicle,’ Reavy explains. Being overzealous with heating tools and years of bleaching can also play a part in hair loss, especially around the hairline. Both contribute to breakage by making hair dry and brittle, eventually leading to hair fallout.

Hair loss shampoos and conditioners are formulated to target the common causes of hair loss. The main types are:

Keeping your scalp clean and at optimum health is key to achieving a fuller head of hair. Ingredients to look out for range from caffeine to peppermint oil to boost circulation, while proteins and keratin will help strengthen hair and give it more resilience. Technically, shampoos can’t regrow any missing patches of hair. However, what they can do is create the right environment to encourage your natural hair to grow as healthily as possible. With over five years’ experience in beauty and health journalism, Florence has written for ELLE, Women’s Fitness, Sister Magazine, National Geographic Traveller and many more, with a strong sustainability angle thread through much of her work.Reavey suggests daily cleansing to minimise negative effects on hair growth and thinning. ‘It really is a myth that you shouldn’t wash your hair too often,’ she explains. ‘Dead skin, pollution and sweat can all contribute to the hair shaft weakening, which causes unhealthy hair growth and thinning. To slow the hair loss process or create the illusion of more hair, consider lifestyle changes such as eating a more nutritious diet, sleeping on a soft pillowcase or discussing a new haircut with your barber. I would just like to say a massive thank you to you. I have been under going chemotherapy for the past 4 months, and in a bid to retain my hair I used the cold cap for the first 2 sessions, however I personally found this and the ensuing headaches too painful to bear so discontinued after that. Not suprisingly my hair then started to thin massively however with the use of your product I have managed to continue on my daily life without the need for either a wig, hat or scarf and it truly has made the whole process of dealing with the chemo and the cancer so much easier. I have told everyone I know about your product and rather than hiding the fact that I am having to use such a thing I have been shouting it from the roof tops in the hope that it may help someone else who unfortunately finds them self in the same position as me. So once again thank you!” Reavey recommends consuming foods rich in protein, such as eggs and Brazil nuts, and for those who follow a plant-based diet, plant-based substitute spirulina is an excellent option. Additionally, foods rich in selenium and biotin, such as nuts, seeds, and sweet potatoes, can also promote healthy hair growth.
