there are various cosmetic products available both over-the-counter or through your hairdresser that can ""thicken"" the hair by coating the cuticle with various ingredients that make the hair look fuller. some of these contain either wheat protein or other waxy residues that add body to the hair. but they only work up until they are shampooed out. men can either take fda-approved propecia (finasteride) orally each day or apply topical rogaine (minoxidil) to make their hair grow thicker. women can also use topical rogaine. in some cases women may benefit from taking oral finasteride or oral spironolactone.
how can i get thicker hair?
