Do you tend to wash and go when it comes to caring for your hair? If so, it’s time to upgrade. All the powerful ingredients that are good for your skin can also help it. And while we’re not suggesting that you should use all these products for a complicated, multi-step regime, investing in the right formulas for your hair problem could be just what you need for healthier, shiny locks.

Collagen for thickening

Occurring naturally in our bodies, collagen is vital for healthy hair growth and supple skin. But as we age, our natural levels deplete, and our hair can thin and skin can slacken. Collagen supplements help to boost both of these from the inside out. While creams enriched with it help smooth and tighten the skin, shampoos and conditioners with collagen can also have benefits for the hair, especially if you find that yours is thinner and weaker than it used to be. Maxine Laceby Absolute Collagen Thickening Shampoo & Conditioner Duo, from £28, absolutecollagen.com, contains a potent collagen formula that wraps around each hair shaft to help thicken and nourish thin, flat hair with a 20% improvement in volume and thickness in just eight weeks.
