I. Understanding fine hair
1. Characteristics & possible causes of fine hair
Fine hair is often characterized by its reduced diameter and delicate texture. Unlike thick hair, which has a larger diameter, fine hair tends to look flat, lack volume and be more fragile. The structure of fine hair is generally smoother, which can make it more difficult to style and hold in place. It also tends to tangle more easily. Because of its delicate nature, fine hair requires special attention and care to keep it healthy.
Several factors can contribute to fine hair. One of the most common is genetics.
It's possible toinherit fine hair from one's parents, making it difficult to thicken naturally fine hair. What's more, the aging process can also play a role in thinning hair.
Over time, hair follicles can lose their ability to produce thick, voluminous hair. Hormonal changes, such as those occurring during menopause, can also lead to thinning hair.
Certain medical conditions can also be responsible for fine hair.
For example, androgenetic alopecia, also known as male or female pattern baldness, can lead to progressive hair loss and thinning.
Thyroid disorders, such as hypothyroidism, can also affect hair texture and make it thinner.
In addition, inappropriate hair care habits, such as frequent use of heated tools and harsh chemicals, can weaken hair and make it thinner over time.
2. The difference between fine and thinning hair
Although they may look similar, it's important to distinguish between fine and thinning hair.
Fine hair refers to the texture of the hair, i.e. its diameter and thickness.
On the other hand, thinning hair refers to hair density, i.e. the number of hair follicles present on the scalp.
So one person may have fine hair but normal density, while another may have thick hair but sparse density.
It's important to make this distinction because treatment approaches and hair care products can differ. To thicken fine hair, the main objective is to add volume and reinforce existing texture.
This can be achieved through a combination of proper hair care, styling techniques and a balanced diet.
II. Several solutions for thickening fine hair
1. Nutrition and supplements: nourishing hair from within
Diet plays a major role in the quality of your hair. Itprovides all the necessary nutrients to the hair fiber of the hair.
Hair is the inactive part of the hair fibre that comes to life thanks to the hair bulb located in the dermis of the scalp.
The best would be to provide vitamins, minerals, amino acids and essential fatty acids in your diet so that the bulb draws what it needs for keratin, which makes up 95% of the hair fiber: the nutrient par excellence.
Eat seasonal fruits and vegetables, vary sources of protein (vegetable, animal), vary vegetable oils (nut, rapeseed, avocado, sunflower, olive oil), consume essential fatty acids (fatty fish, salmon, tuna).

Morgann
"I'm delighted with this treatment! After several failures with other brands. For almost 2 years, I had been losing my hair by the handful (fatigue, coloring...) with the result that my hair mass was less and my fiber was thinner. I've started my 3rd month of treatment and the intensive hair loss is over. I completed the treatment with an external cure and in a few months' time I'll be continuing with the keratin capsules."
