I have the same issues AND the same thin, fine hair problems because of them. This was quite informative and helpful. I can't use curling irons (and have the burn marks to prove it!) and am only marginal with a round brush and a hair dryer but your "tips" made me feel like I might be able to learn. Thanks!
John Frieda makes a 1-1/2 inch hot air brush that is awesome. I started with the Revlon One Step which I love, but then I got my hair all cut off and the Revlon styler was too big so I bought the John Frieda. I love it just as much as the Revlon and you could achieve the same look as she does in the video without having to wield a round brush and separate dryer.
Hi Judy, I don't know why l have a hard time with curling iron and try a flat curler. But, good luck 🤞
I have a 50 vitamin d level and my hair is so thin I just get the clippers out and shave my head.problem dolved

At last someone with fine hair showing you how to style it Not like 99% TH-camRS with thick hair pretending it is fine because they just washed it and stuck it behind there ears.Good tips on style, products etc.
I’m glad you liked it.
Great as the previous person said you really do have fine hair like me , I also know how to create an illusion of thicker hair .
@@GlacieraBr1de No one is coming at anyone but i think if you are promoting a product it should work dont you think? what good is promoting slimming pills to someone who is anorexic and under weight.On that basis someone with thick hair would be interested in styling products for that hair type whereas it would be false advertising if they clamed there thick hair was due to some shampo rather than good old mother nature.
Hi Jennifer,
I couldn't agree more, I also have fine hair, dry shampoo is my lifeline!!
@@GlacieraBr1de : Ahhh c'mon lady! You just don't understand the trials of having thin hair 😒 GIMME A BREAK OK?
To anyone who finds their hair is thinning. Check your Vitamin D level. Vitamin D deficiency can cause hair to thin, it will even effect your eyebrows.
Calcium deficiency will too.
Check iron as well. I am both iron and Vit D deficient and have to take supplements.
Thanks for the tip. My hair is thinning and had blood work done and my vitamin D was low. I am now on supplements.
My vit d had crashed hair had stopped growing I added 4,000 iu daily and it’s gone crazy now xx
Just check the calendar. If you were born around WW2 you probably have thinning hair.
Thank God for dry shampoo! It has made my life easier. At age 72 I finally accepted my fine thin hair and I follow much of the way you do. I have a bob which works for me, try not to shampoo more than twice a week and use my dry shampoo for volume. I really think the fewer shampooing is helping. As a child I only shampooed once a week and had lots of fine hair. It is a pleasure to see someone with my struggles instead of a thick haired woman PrENTENDING to have our type of hair
Hi Judy! how're you doing?
Most dry shampoos have chemicals that are dangerous. I use talc free cornstarch baby powder and I have black hair. Trick is to use lightly and first rub it in your hands. I've recently have gotten a few monotops that give me the volume and some are human hair and the heat friendly synthetics feel nice and don't look shiny that you can tell
What dry shampoo do you like? Thanks.
Carla bobs wife here….I saw a doctor about my hair the shafts of each strand felt stripped and my hair was falling out all over the house. The doctor said I had inherited male pattern baldness from my father and there was little I could do except take hormone therapy or use romaine. I already use vitamin d. I really hate having to spend hours on my hair. I already have to shave my face every day. Does anyone have a reasonable helpful routine that does not require so much time.?
That is rogane not Romain. Rogain is a drug
Finally, a real woman with actual thin hair. All those other sites are using pictures from internet with young women with more hair. Not realistic!
I started to have hair like this at age 13. I was so young. I trust the hacks from people like you rather than younger people who don't actually have thin hair but think they do. So thank you!
It’s hard to understand unless you’re dealing with it
Thanks for sharing !💖❤🧡
Remember to also take care of your hair with nutrition… bone broth, gelatin, vitamin e, whole food vitamin c, etc…
18 months ago I was loosing hair big time. Frightening. Now I have a lot of healthy hair.
Once a week I dampen my hair and then massage scalp and hair with a 50/50 mixture of coconut oil and castor oil… leave it for at least an hour and then wash and style. Finally, I sleep with a hair bonnet…
Thank you so much for these tips! Your hair is like mine! I’ve had the same baby fine thin hair my entire 51 years of life and welcome this video!
I’m 58 and losing my hair, temples receding more so quickly. I love the lift you got at the crown and the long feminine bangs. Plus my grey has the opposite texture I’ve managed my entire life, no silkiness, just dry breaking and baby fine along w the thinning. My ego is smashed, very hard on a woman.
gerstengras hilft ein wenig.....bio
I understand the feeling. I started thinning @that age, now 60 it's unbelievably disturbing. Maybe we both need to try some of theses suggestions bc I don't think Castor, Argon oils, ect. are working for me. Let's try biotin or collagen!
I’m so sorry you’re struggling with this
1). Castor oil (warm). For one (2,3) hour
2). castor oil + honey + cognac / brandy (one spoon each) + chicken egg yolk. For one (2,3) hour
(Sorry for google translate :)))))

What a refreshing change to see real results, pity I have curly hair 😭, it so difficult to style now without washing it.
Thank you, a real woman with the same real issues as I have. Your technique is doable and your style is flattering, not just another older woman with a pixie. You have *a real style with volume around the crown and over the ears* with products I already have! Thank you so much Jennifer, I think I can do this...yay!!! : D
So cool!
Love it!! I’m a hair stylist of over 20yrs and it’s so enjoyable watching others find easy strategies to style their hair at home!! Great look!!!
Absolutely beautiful, and I so appreciate your video. I have exactly the same issues and you are the FIRST video I've seen who actually has good advice and actual thin hair. How YOU style your hair makes a big difference, and the result is so beautiful on you. Thank you!
Thanks Kristen. I’m so glad it was helpful
Thanks for this. My doctor referred my thinning hair on top of my head as male pattern baldness. Not what women want at any age. Thyroid problems don't help. Be gentle with thin fragile hair.
Hi there apply violet oil
When you blow dry your hair, perhaps you can put some hair rollers on the The top, and then use the spray. Keep the rollers in for about 45 minutes. It will make your hair look thicker when you take them out.
You can always try it out.
Yes - that does work
I take every styling trick i can, practice and then go! 45 minutes to wait? LOL 😅😅
I had enough of it all and started a collection of wigs which always look gorgeous and on trend. No more bad hair days. Simple!
where did u buy your wig? I'm considering it
plz I need to know where to buy wigs
@@stephaniesibits7357 It depends on where you live. I buy from Mimo in Scotland. Try watching Taz's Wig Closet my favourite wig reviewer for inspiration.
Name brand wigs
@@lisalinch6642 My favourite is Jon Renau. It's all trial and error and does depend to some extent on where you live/what's easy to obtain.
Omg ! Same ! I’m now 39 and the last 3 years I’m thinning I’m same places as you . And I also have a “5 head “ I hate it ! Yours honestly looks fine !!! You look beautiful!
Hello Canadiagirl..
How are you doing today
What do you mean with "5 head"? English is not my mother tongue :-)
@@desifromitaly2205 sorry 5 head means you can fit your whole hand on your forehead without touching hair lol
@@canadiangirl3410 Thank you :-)
I have always had a 5 head straight fine hair that is now thin. It's silky and no matter how I do it, it never stays full
Brilliant! My hair is so much like yours even cut, length and color. I complain about it having no body but to be honest, I have stopped bothering to do it properly. Thank You for reinspiring me.
Hello philomena
How are you doing today
My issues are identical. I just got a blunt bob after 2+ years of being afraid to get my hair cut because the stylists are too rough on my hair. I'm definitely going to give your tips a try. Thank you and God bless
Thank you. Yes - as others have said - this is an honest video. The lady truly does have thin, fine hair - so she understands our struggles. And - how can l say...a real person - unaffected, natural - someone you know you would like - and some useful tips too! (I couldn't live without my dry shampoo either)
Nice hair style! I am 67 and have long hair and am noticing my hair is thinning quite a bit. I appreciate your idea with getting more volume and lift by hitting the cool button on the hair dryer before removing the brush...makes good sense! I have a high forehead and my hair has receded in the same areas as yours, so I depend on my bangs to hide this area. I love the way your hair falls around your face without having to resort to bangs. Refreshing and youthful look!
I do have some thin bangs just to try to camouflage those upper corners of my forehead. I can’t do big bangs because I need the volume on my sides.
Hi how are tou doing today hope you're having a good time today
Hi Mona, I am 60 years old and 5 years ago I stopt dying my hair. My hair has become thicker. I have more of a grey ash colour now. During the lockdown i gave my hair more freedom to relax it. After washing my hair, I stopt blowdrying my hair, and I stopt using hairsprays for months. I think we have to concider to give our hair some naturel freedom for a few months, without damaging our hair with blow drying and putting other products in our hair. It was my own idea, and my hair looks beautiful now.
I guess I'm not alone. In tje 70s I had long blonde thick hair. I turned around and now I'm 65 with flat hair. Thank you for this
thanks Jennifer. thyroid hair is the pits i can relate
It really is!
I now have thyroid hair plus post Covid hair loss
Watch Dr. BERGS Advice re thyroid and excess estrogen.
Thank you for your video Jennifer! Can you describe how your haircut is done? My hair is a razored layer pixie but with gray at my temples that hair in front of my ears frizzes and won’t lay flat. Feel like I need to grow it out some so it doesn’t look do extreme and short. Ty
My hair was thinning then got worse after tornado and my husband passed few mo. Later. I started taking Collagen, and a multivitamin with collagen. Its helping saw results2 mo.i was a hairstylist for yrs. This did work for me I hope it helps . Rebecca
Thankyou will tryb
@@jennymclean2323 hi I sure hope this works for you . Its helped friends and family everyone's hair grew faster and is getting thicker . Bonus, collagen helps wrinkles and I use collagen peptide serum on face and neck and chest ,I then rub any remaining into hairline.if I can send pic I will.
I have been using collagen peptides, 15000 mgs. of bioten & drinking bone broth since April of this year. My hair & nails grow so fast it is amazing. My stylest asked me what I was doing because my hair is so thick & healthy now. I am 68 years old and a widow for 2 years. When in doubt double down. Bone broth is full of collagen.
@@willo8794 I'm so happy collagen is helping you too it sure helps wrinkles too rebecca
Thank you
Finally, a video of someone who has hair like mine. Fine hair.
Other folks talking fine hair n I just don't see it
thanks. it's mother's day this Sunday, and my mum asked me to curl her hair for it. I'm at a loss. I've got the thick slightly wavy hair my mum had in her youth, but her hair is really thin and fine now, I didn't know how to style it. thanks for the tips and the walkthrough. this really helps.
Thank you for sharing. Thinning hair is a journey I wasn’t quite ready for . . . 😝. You have a great attitude and super suggestions.
It’s a real battle. Good luck
@@AWellStyledLife my hair is thin in the back crown. I can see my scalp. Teasing and hair spray.
Great video,Does anyone know the name of the hair spray and dry shampoo she said she was using?
I also have thyroid hair 😔. Love how you styled your hair! Thanks for the tips!
I lost both my thyroid glands to cancer & now my hair is receding on both sides . I have no idea how to fix or at least stop it. Does anyone have any suggestions.
Great info.
Christine, try saw palmetto for hair fall.
Me too. Thinner all the time. Was beautiful once. I'm finding that yo need to be kind to it. Get it healthy and moisturized with weightless products. Use hair mask and leave in conditioner. Careful with heat and anything drying.
Thank you for this video! SO helpful to see how you deal with this frustrating issue. I don’t want to wash and blow dry my hair every day-can’t be good for thinning hair-and have just discovered dry shampoo. I won’t hesitate now to use it all the time. Your video is empowering and encouraging. Many thanks!
Thanks for the inspiration! Once I was a Brek Shampoo girl.....now I am going bald from thyroid issues. I appreciate the product tips too.
Be well 🙏
Thanks for sharing. I've learned that a messy look increases the perception of more volume in my hair. I now spend less time trying to make it look perfect.
Yes!!!
I prefer a "messy" look!
Thank you for your top tips Jennifer. I have had fine, long hair my whole life but, in my 50's it also become thinner. I am now 60 and finally ready to take the plunge and get a shorter hair style. Something like yours is great and doesn't seem to be to difficult to manage.
Thank you for the good tips on fine thin hair! I'm just getting over Covid and lost so much hair! Bald in spots also! I'm now 86 years young and thinking that a wig is probably what I'll do! I have always had perms which were so helpful but no chance of that damage! But after a little bit linger maybe I will try your styling tips!
Yes, buy a wig and wear it when it gets cut to fit your face and head. Wigs don’t come custom cut but most people try to make it work, and then they get turned off by wigs.
I went through a lot stress when my late husband was sick and I lost a lot of hair. Now I hate the pink of my scalp showing not terrible but it still bothers me!! I’m 79!! My daughter 44 was also losing hair from Covid…..
Thanks so much! I will definitely try this - 65 and hair is thinning all over!
Be sure to try the dry shampoo. It’s really helpful
Thank you for not insisting that we all get a pixie haircut. This was a useful video on how to use products effectively, without the hard sell for particular products.
Guaranteed super volume for fine hair - crimping underneath layers, where it cannot be seen. As well as that, I use volume powder at roots, then tease, then setting spray those same layers. The top layer is left straight to smooth over all that work. Takes some practise to get it personalised, but absolute massive volume. And stays that way for days unwashed.
Can you tell me the names of the products you use. Sounds like you have great results.
@@florencelinderman3797 Just your regular appliances. Schwarzkopf volume power (though I’m wondering if dry shampoo might work), teasing comb/brush, firm hold hairspray. Really whatever you usually buy at the supermarket. We want thickness underneath (crimping, teasing, setting) and a smooth overlay. Knowing what you want and practising is key. Hope that helps.
It literally takes me 10 to 15 seconds to crimp the tiny hairs at my crown. And it makes a big difference……You lift up your top layer and grab a few little sections underneath crimp them and then lay the flat hair on top it just gives you a little bit of volume
Your hair looks beautiful the way you style it!!! Mine is falling out, due to menopause. I gave myself a mullet, following a tutorial. I did a pretty good job! But the layers only make my hair appear thinner...so now I'm going to grow it back out. I kinda regret cutting it now. 😕
I am so appreciative of this video! For the first time my post menopausal/post BC hair looked normal without frying it to death! Thank you.
I am 61 and have fine hair. You are so right abt letting it cool, I use that technique and it Works well for me. I have never tried the dry shampoo but I will try that and the other tips that you show thank you so much!
I have exactly the same hair and mine goes a bit flat in the afternoon too and I push mine behind my ears as well.Thank you for sharing.
My pleasure
This has been my hair all my life. Stick straight, fine, thin, and absolutely no body. Getting thinner on top now at age 74 and have hypothyroidism.
I am 82 and I find dry shampoo is amazing wish I could find something for my non existing eye brows xx
I'm 55, and have had thinning hair for decades (and I never had super thick hair to begin with) due to too much male hormone...and possibly other issues. Anyway, now during meno, it's suddenly gotten dramatically thinner. I'm freaking out. Like you, I have a lot of thinning in the temples (and for me, also in the crown). I just started on rosemary oil on my head at night as I've seen/read GREAT testimonials from both men and women who need to block DHT in their scalp.
From medical trials rosmary oil has shown to be as effective as monoxodil 2%.
For aggressive genetic pattern baldness they recommend 5% monoxodil.
@@ChickPeaChannel I am now 6 months in using rosemary oil mixed with a little EVOO (as the carrier oil) every single night. I have little hairs all over the place! There are "baby bangs" along my entire forehead and in my temples area. I do probably need to be on 5% minoxidil though...but I hate big pharma.
@@Atheria444wow, that's great to hear and gives me hope. I have lost so much hair with the menopause and it's so obvious I feel like hiding away x
I love your attitude about thin hair…I have it, too…and your routine will definitely work for me…thank you😊
My pleasure
The more I mess with my hair the more it falls out. Blow drying and styling products stress mine out. Your hair looks amazing. Love it. ❤
Thanks for the advice
I will try the dry shampoo I am 75 and
Thin hair. I don’t mind getting older, but my hair used to be really thick
im 59 menopausal an my hair has thinned its made my forehead very big wide i never thought id do this i bought my self a wig bangs as there called and i feel my confidence soar again it was getting that way i didnt even wanna go shopping or go out thank goodness for wigs ladygodiva wigs ladies try it
My daughter suggested biotin and it’s really helped my hair and nails. Went through an annoying stage as all the new baby hairs grew, but holy cow (!), I have a bit more hair. I’m 63.
Finally, someone with my hair!! Thanks for the tips!
Hurrah a real person with real thin hair. This was great advice would never have thought about dry shampoo shots
Your hair is just like mine. Drives me mad. Tried so many styles over the years. Thank you. Sally, Suffolk, UK xx
It’s a challenge for sure
Thank you soooo much for this excellent demonstration. It’s so good to know how to conceal thinning hair.
Loreal men's thickening cream is a god sent for me. its a black tub, and there's one called matt & paste too that's extremely similar if not the same
I so agree with you that men's thickening products give superb results. Some claim to be crash helmet proof!!! Take note, fine haired sisters....ditch women's products & you will see results. A little goes a long way, so very economical. Go for it !!!!!
How do you use the Loreal men's thickening cream?
@@birdkitty6817 i have fine/thin hair so i use just a pea size and rub it in both hands to activate it and itll look like white paint on hands and apply all over untill its off your hands and whiteness disappears
oh i also use it on soaking/right out of shower hair
@@cutepoiisonn Thank you for explaining your technique and taking the time to do so... So appreciated!!! I think I may try this. Sounds promising.
Salt spray helps my texture, flatness, and static electricity. Dry shampoo too often is so drying. I still use the Kenra texture spray I read you use. Also use Drybar Southern Belle root volume mousse. My hair stylist has thyroid trouble, at age 36 she is having thinning hair. She recommends rosemary essential oil about 20 drops in an 8oz bottle of shampoo. Smells wonderful, not sure it helps. I could always improve my diet.
It is drying. I love the smell of rosemary. Interesting idea
Im so happy I found you. Im over 50 and always had fine hair..got covid and had alot of hair loss. Im sooo lost I dont know what to do or what products to use. Love this vid..
Hi Lisa! how're you doing?
Thank you! My hair is baby fine and thin, my styling routine is very similar. I use a root lifter and Vita-E hairspray. Finding a stylist that understood my hair and how to cut it has been a struggle. Thank goodness I recently got a cut from a stylist I had years ago, she’s great and understands my hair. I am forever grateful.
Would you please share the root lifter you use? Thanks.
Thank you! Finally someone that addresses fine hair. Mine is similar to yours, probably even a little more fine and I’m tired of videos of people with much thicker hair in styles that I could never do.
Thank you for this great video. My hair is just like yours - except curly (I hate the curls because it looks stringy, so I blow dry and straighten with a very large round brush). But I never heard of using dry shampoo! I just put some in my Amazon cart and can't wait to try it!
One thing I just want to add... last year I purchased a "hair topper" (like a partial wig that just snaps on and gives me thicker bangs and crown) and I have gorgeous hair in a second! It's really comfortable too - and unlike a wig, I can wear it all day if I want. I don't use it for regular everyday wear because that's my preference. But on bad hair days and special occasions - I love it!
You could be my twin ...fine, thin, curly, receding hair. I also have never heard of using dry shampoo but am going to try it - especially since I now only wash my hair -1 to 2 times a week now. I also bought a hair topper last year and it is awesome! I wear it on special occasions and bad hair days when I want to look nice. It's been a game-changer for me! No more baseball hats!
Hi Jennifer,
I can't get over how beautiful and perfect your haircolor is on you! I tried letting my hair go grey, because I lost almost half my hair from menopause and then Covid. I realize now that haircolor made my hair look thicker and shinier, so want to color it again. I believe you live in Northern California, like me. Would you be willing to share your hairstylist and color information? Thanks so much!
The worst part is having to spend more time on my hair to get half the results. I have never had great hair but menopause is killing me.
I have thyroid hair as well. I wear a wig if I go out anywhere, but work with my few strands while at home. Thank you for sharing.
I started to notice thinning in my temple area at age 52. I was so nervous. Now I'm 64 and there is little hairs in that area. I lost the hair there. So if I pull my hair away from my forehead, you can see the no hair part. I used to part my hair to the side but now I can't because of the hair loss. So I have to cover it by putting my hair in the middle. It freaks me out when I'm blowing my hair dry. You do still have hair up in that area. I don't know your age, but mine just kept going away. You look very pretty.
Mine was so thin I started using Rogaine and it’s really helped.
I'm 60 and now really losing so much every day😟. Freaks me out.
Hi...apply violet oil
Your vid popped up out of nowhere and I’m so happy it did! I will start trying these techniques, thank you.
Great job :) you know your hair and what it likes to get the lift. Its great to share these tips, with other women :)
I just had haicut for mu fine thin hair . I'm 64 so she cut it like yours I style it by doing beach curls it looks good. I'm living with it all you can do.
Thank you for your tips. My hair is thinning as well. I use dry shampoo but I haven’t thought of using it in this way, also the drying tips were very helpful.
It’s a game changer for me
Thank you for your helping us through our tough beauty problems
Love the step by step demo! Easy to try now. Also thanks for mentioning the products used, how much to use and when to use.
Your hair is very straight, try this. Wash your hair and leave it to dry naturally. I recommend you then use rollers and a small amount of a setting product on dry hair. Then, use a hairdryer to dry, keep it on a low setting or go up, as long as it's hot and pointing across and all over on top of the rollers.. Then put the Hairdryer on cold , and give your head a cold blast for as long as you can bear it, or for at least a minute or two. Leave the rollers in, and do something else. You see, when doing your hair and drying it, it feels dry. It's NOT dry really, your scalp is still a bit damp. This is something that people either forget or don't even realise. This is often the reason why people feel let down after paying a lot of money in a Hair Salon only to find their beautiful hairstyle has begun to unravel.
I know rollers are looked on by some as a bit old fashioned, but many Salons still use them. You could have your hair permed but only on the crown, This will give you some body on top for ever day . You can use the upside down drying, you know, blowing your hair when your hair is upside down. Buy a set of electric rollers if you want. I still have a set given quite some time ago, and they are great for those times when you're in a hurry. I don't think using a dry shampoo every day is a good idea. What did your hairdresser say about that ? It's not necessarily good for your hair every day, but that's up to you.. Good luck!
This morning I washed my hair and copied you! It is perfect!
That’s awesome!
Thank you for these super helpful tips!! My hair has never been thick, and I've only stuck to a few styles to hide that over the past few years.
The cut is so important
I went to a hairstylist a long time ago and the woman was flabbergasted when she noticed thinning hair on the top of my scalp. She acted as if that is the worst thing in the world and kept saying: well, there is nothing we can do about that.
Lady, I did not ask you to do anything about that, but I would think a real professional hairstylist could at least give suggestions like this lady in the video does.
Thinning hair comes along with aging for a lot of us. Menopause changes our hair completely and we need practical help.
I know your challenge! Mine is truly find also. I find spraying my hands with spray and working just where I want helps! If I just spray my hair it flattens out again! Do love your cut!
I’ll have to try that
Thank you for you insight and truly showing us how you do your hair. Much appreciated.
Did a good job, looks nice. Instead of even brushing it lightly just tousel it or pick it. I have thin hair also, blondes have thinner, finer hair but actually more hair. If we have more hair even though it's thinner you'd think it would look thicker but no it doesn't. Like I said I have blonde, thinner hair but wavy, curley. I just tousle it after i shampoo it and pick it a little with a comb and let it air dry. I never comb it, it would take the curl out and just look like a big dried out mess. Also some layers help puff it up
thats exactly how I used to style my fine, thin hair. The other tip was only shampooing it once a week. Now...game changer...I finally got K-tip hair extensions. couldn't be happier. Your video was perfect!!
I’m 47 and my hair has thinned drastically over the past year… it’s such a confidence killer.
Same it's lost it's shine and it's flat and lifeless. I used to enjoy washing my hair but it's not like it was since half my hair fell out. Its thin but was fine up to the last few months
Same. It's so bloody depressing. I was OK until I hit the menopause x
Very good and instructive tutorial. Until my hair turned grey it was thick. Now it’s of a different texture and flattens very quickly, and is straighter (it was frizzyish before!). I’ve been a slave to my hair all my life - slept in rollers when young so hair would be straight 😮. Thank the lord for straighteners. Have a good day.
Thank you I am 64 and getting thinner I never thought to use dry shampoo 👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰
Great job. Your hair looks full. I just watched another video about a blunt bob on hair like ours. The stylist also has thin hair. Her advice for a cut was NO LAYERS, NO POINT CUTTING. My stylists have always told me I had to have layers and shaggy ends. When they were done I figured that was as good as it would ever be. After seeing the video I was convinced. After I let the layers grow out I'm getting a new stylist who will give me a blunt bob.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I hae had health issues as well and my very thick hair is thin in places and this really helped.
Love this! Looks awesome. Thank you for jumping right into it and being specific.
Many thanks for this video. My hair has recently starting thinning and good to see how you styled your hair.
Hi Suzanne! how're you doing?
I thought I'd end up with thinning hair as I get into 40ish, but since I changed my diet to meat only/carnivore, I can't believe how much new hair growth I've got, I even grow my hair longer.
I have thinning hair and thyroid issues, too. Great video. New subbie.
I always had thick, wavy hair, but for the past year, my hair has been thinning like crazy - receding at my temples and I'm starting to get a bald spot at the back of my crown. I'll be 60 in 3 months. Thank you so much for showing us how you style your hair...beautiful
Same, same, same. Where did all that thick wavy hair go?! Love these tips. I find applying mousse to the crown and round brushing over the cow lick/thin spot really helps.
Same with me. It's always been thick with curly parts and wavy parts and cowlicks. Now it's thinning all over but noticeable at my temples with some bald spots in the back. I'm 62.
You manage your hair type very well. It looks very pretty.
This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank You for the style tips!
Wow!! Will try the dry shampoo! Thanks for this video ❤
My thanks for your encouraging how-to video!!!! I love your look,, Pretty Lady.
Thanks for the tips . A good haircut doesn't hurt either !
Wonderful video tips. You look beautiful. 🤗 I also the got the thinning of my fine hair dilemma when I reached 55. Hormones and genetics. I did find, too, in my arsenal of hair products, shorter length, and reduced washing and heat, that Rogain or Minoxidil 5% has been a game changer. I used it daily to start and now am down to three times a week on my scalp with particular attention to the temple area. It speeds the growth process and absolutely has created more hairs!
Love your sense of humor!
Nice look! I to have the dreaded hole at the back of my head. I didn’t realize it was actually a cowlick, but I’m always trying to cover it up. I don’t use a lot of product I found for myself. It tends to weigh my hair down, but I am taking in the tips that you’ve provided.
Thank you Jennifer .. very useful video..I have similar hair type except mine is frizzy rather than straight. Unfortunately there are not many volumising products I can use even in moderation that do not make my hair oily. I do like dry shampoo and hairspray.
Ive notice SO many women who haven't seen the back of their hair and have HUGE balding spots....where my scalp shows thru, I apply brown $2 eye shadow to the actual scalp with my fingers..darker roots hide the thinning..no need to pay more
Creative idea! I noticed this cowlick/thin area over the last year. If I apply mousse and then round brush the area, it all stays in place.
But especially in exercise class, where you see the back of everyone’s heads - I notice this is a fairly common problem in gals over 50.
Just went and tried it works ,thanks for the tip.
Love that particular dry shampoo. Sometimes go back to cheap one and …nope. Too heavy Thx for sharing
I had the same issue about 5 years ago with thinning hair only on the left side of the top front of my head as well. I also had a dime size ball spot on the top front of my head, but I tried Mielle Organics Rosemary Mint Strengthening Hair Growth oil and my hair grew back. It also helps with shedding. It definitely strengthens the hair. Going through menopause was rough for my hair, but Mielle Organics Mint oil helped tremendously. I still use it to this present day.
Hi ... I just picked up the Mielle Rosemary Mint oil a few months back but felt it was not working and coincidently used it last night thinking I would try again. How often do you use it? And how much? After washing my hair this morning, I felt hair looked and felt weighed down - a bit stringy.
@@ehayes7849At the beginning I used it in the morning and at night for about 2 to three weeks and then I started using it only at night maybe for a month. Now, I use it every other day. You have to really massage it into your scalp every time you put it on. Give your head a good massage about a minute or two all over. After I wash my hair once a week and before styling I put it on my scalp. I can’t wash it more than once a week because I can feel some dryness I guess do to aging, but that’s ok. I also wear a satin scarf at night. My hair is definitely growing! I started using the oil because my hair was shedding not for length. My hair is already long. It started growing more.
@@ehayes7849Take a before and after picture. It may be a little growth at the beginning, but you can see from the pictures if there is real growth. Also, when my hair was thinning I used OGX Thick & Full + Biotin & Collagen Shampoo & Conditioner (before I stopped using sulfate & silicone products) and it worked to thicken my hair.
@@Essence12012 Thank you, Lisa - I GREATLY appreciate your telling me your experience. So just the scalp? - I soaked my ends and all over so that must be why it looked so oily after washing my hair - a bit of overkill. On my first times using, I did not use every day and night b/c afraid it would look too oily going out so will use less and just on scalp. Will get me a silk cap.
Thank goodness for my winter weather and wearing cool looking beanies, all the time. sigh ...
So glad you got my message. take care.
@@Essence12012 Yeah! tks again. You must be psychic. I was just beginning to check out hair products for collagen - and wondering if I could find a biotin supplement. Hesitant b/c so many scams out there. Thickened hair would take a miracle - I just want top of my scalp to not show thru. I notice a lot of damage to hair that is on top of my head. New b/p medication not helping. much appreciate.
Thanks for the tips. My hair is baby fine, stick straight, and thinning due to thyroid disease. I am always trying to make it look thicker. My favorites are Kenra 25 volume hair spray and dry shampoo. Since I live in hot and humid Louisiana, I have to watch what I use because some products turn to glue in our climate. These two don’t.
Thanks for your suggestion… as I’m more than dewy here in FL, lol and hate how humidity makes products feel heavy n sticky
You look fabulous, naturally pretty! Thanks for sharing!! Go Volume!!💙
I love this video. An older real woman I can relate too. Thank you.
Hairdressers alwaystell me the brush/roll technique is a good one. But i am really uncoordinated and can’t seem to do it 😣😣😣
A hairdresser also advised me that using dry shampoo to often can dry hair out and lead to damage.
