Start with a Scalp-First Routine

Healthy hair starts at the scalp. If you’re looking for a more targeted solution beyond temporary volume, the OGX® ProGrowth + Peptide lineup is worth exploring. Developed with expert trichologists, this 4-step routine is designed to support scalp health and visibly achieve 3x fuller hair after first use*.

Unlike traditional volumizing products that can clog the scalp, this system helps create a healthier environment for natural growth—especially helpful for those getting ready for a big event and want their hair to look its fullest, individuals with naturally fine or thin hair, or women who’ve experienced hair changes due to lifestyle shifts.

Tease Strategically

Teasing is a quick styling trick that adds lift at the roots. Use a fine-tooth comb or your fingers to gently backcomb small sections, then smooth the top layer. A light hairspray can help hold the volume without stiffness. Just be gentle—over-teasing can lead to breakage.

Support Hair from the Inside

Nutrients like biotin, collagen, vitamins C, D, and E, zinc, and iron all play a role in hair growth and strength. You can get these from a balanced diet—think eggs, leafy greens, nuts, fish, and legumes—or through supplements if needed. Always check with a healthcare provider before starting anything new.

Rethink Your Part

Changing your part can instantly refresh your look and add volume. A deep side part, zig-zag part, or even flipping your hair to the opposite side can create lift at the roots. Pair this with a volumizing spray or mousse for extra body.

Get a Volume-Boosting Haircut

The right cut can make a big difference. Layers add movement and the illusion of thickness, while textured styles like lobs, shags, or pixie cuts can give fine hair more shape. Talk to your stylist about cuts that work with your hair type and texture.

Focus on Scalp Health

Here are a few ways to support your scalp:

• Exfoliate: Use a scalp scrub to remove buildup.

• Massage: Stimulates blood flow and can encourage growth.

• Clarify: Use a clarifying shampoo occasionally to remove residue.

• Sun Protection: Wear a hat or scarf to shield your scalp from UV damage.

Embrace Heat-Free Styling

Heat tools can weaken hair over time. Try air-drying, braiding before bed, or using heatless curlers to style without damage. Your hair will thank you—and you might be surprised by how much volume you can get naturally.

Use Thickening Styling Products

Styling products can help create the look of thicker hair. Lightweight volumizing sprays, mousses, and root-lifters are great options. The OGX® ProGrowth + Peptide Serum Mist offers instant fullness and heat protection, making it a great addition to your styling routine.

Thicker-looking hair doesn’t have to be a mystery or a constant struggle. Whether you’re adjusting your styling habits, nourishing your body from within, or trying a scalp-first system like OGX® ProGrowth + Peptide, small changes can lead to noticeable results. The key is consistency, patience, and choosing products and routines that support your hair’s natural growth.
