What You Can Do to Achieve Thicker Hair 

Find a Hair Product That’s Right for You

Many hair products are designed to help men grow thicker hair. Some shampoos contain biotin, an essential vitamin that helps the body break down various substances, such as fats and carbohydrates. In addition, biotin produces a protein known as keratin which helps keep your hair and nails healthy. Without proper biotin in the body, men may find themselves failing to have their desired thick hair. If you’re interested in trying a product with biotin, consider speaking with a stylist at HoneyCuts to determine what’s right for you. 

Eat a Healthy Diet

Most individuals know that eating a healthy diet benefits their overall well-being. The nutrients found in certain foods help contribute to hair growth. Protein, antioxidants, essential vitamins, and omega-3 fatty acids can help grow thicker hair. Here are some suggestions of foods that may be helpful to incorporate into your diet:

Protein

• • Eggs 
  • Greek Yogurt 
  • Poultry 
  • Beans 

Antioxidants/Essential vitamins 

• • Berries 
  • Sweet Potatoes 
  • Almonds 
  • Spinach 

Omega-3 Fatty Acids

• • Salmon
  • Pumpkin Seeds
  • Avocados 
  • Olive Oil 

This list is intended to be used as an educational reference, and individuals should consult a healthcare professional before modifying their diet.

Quit Smoking

Studies have linked smoking to both hair damage and hair loss. Experts suggest that cigarette toxins can interfere with natural hair growth and damage your body’s circulation. Quitting smoking can help your body receive vital nutrients needed for hair growth and repair any hair loss that occurred while smoking. If you currently smoke, a healthcare provider can help you understand your next steps and provide you with any necessary resources. 

Consider Taking a Supplement/Medication

Many vitamin supplements and medications contain ingredients that promote hair growth. For some men, adding a supplement to their daily routine can significantly help them to grow thicker hair. In addition, some men succeed with medications that slow down hair loss and promote new hair growth. Always consult a healthcare professional before beginning a new supplement or medication.

Avoid Drying Your Hair

It’s not uncommon for men to dry their hair with a towel or use a blow-dryer after washing. However, this common practice can damage hair follicles and cause your hair to become dry and brittle. Consider letting your hair naturally dry after showering. If you must use a blow-dryer, be sure to use a cool setting and avoid holding the dryer too close to your head.
