Hair thinning is referred as losing hairs that create space between your hair strands.

However, in some cases, the hair loss is aggregated and results in more than the usual shedding of hairs, leaving a wider parting or a thinning crown. It can be caused by different factors such as hereditary conditions, hormonal changes, stress and tension, unhealthy lifestyle and food habits, excessive styling, scalp problems, and more. With products such as hair thickening fibres, it has become possible to hide the balding area of your head and create a volumizing effect on your scalp.
