Re: New Beauty Section?

Fibre thingies what are they?
Thinning hair - Sorry no cure, but there are ways to enhance.
I am drinking tonight, but tomorrow I promise to post some really good tips.
This IS a very good thread.

Re: New Beauty Section?

Just a passing thought, we are not talking fibre in our diets are we.

It feels horrible and looks naff

Ooer, can't see that working very well.
Does it all brush out everytime you brush your hair I wonder? Must look like dark dandruff.
Bet it makes a mess on the pillow too.

Advertisers claiming all this rubbish.
I hate them for it.
I promise to be sensible tomorrow.
BTW drinking lots of water is always good.
Even though I am drinking wine.

It makes the hair full of static and just looks flat matt. There's also a spray to keep it in, or you can probably use ordinary hair spray.
Yes, it would make a mess of the pillow. I used it once and washed it out asap.
Then I found a spray one and that was equally bad.

Think I'll get a wig, 'cept that would look wiggie.
Maybe I could find a rich bloke and he'd pay for me to have a hair transplant.

Dad was bald, his brother was bald, my male cousin is bald. Mum's hair was thin, her mum's hair was thin as was her sisters.
I've had thyroid probs (have none now). Thyroid problems can cause thinning hair. Bad diet. With age you can lose hair...
Tis no wonder I have thinning hair

Goodness, my sweet cheer up.
Dolly Parton wears a wig and Cher.
Yes, hormones are to blame for lots of things.
I bet you have a lovely complexion.

Re: New Beauty Section?

Hi

The boring scientific view.

This stuff works, minoxidil.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minoxidil

You can get the generic stuff, but unless you feel confident messing around with it, Regaine is available from Boots or online.

Notice the price difference between the 5% strength for men and 2% for women.

You ladies are getting ripped off.

Re: New Beauty Section?

For shiny hair try eating lots of almonds
I eat them for my health not beauty .
One of the side benefits is thick silky hair.
I eat about 500g a week.
