How to get thicker hair- steps

1. Limit the use of chemical relaxers.
As mentioned times and times before, using chemical relaxers often and of course too soon, (6 weeks and before) will result in thin lifeless hair. Why? because chemical relaxers, or any chemical treatment for that matter, breaks the keratin bonds (protein) in the hair, which explains why our curly kinky hair is straight after the process. Such a strong process cannot and should not be done often. The continuous use of the harsh chemicals will continue to break down keratin bonds which may have not been returned to the hair after the previous process (a protein treatment should be done before relaxing to return or restore the keratin broken down previously). The effects of the overuse of this chemical is not far fetched, which includes breakage, split ends, thin hair etc.

2. Remove split ends
Thin ends or split ends, when left unattended , results in the hair appear thinner than it really is. Split ends are literally caused  when the ends of the hair actually split into strands. Split ends are caused by dry, damaged weak hair and cannot be repaired. By trimming away all split ends or damaged ends, the hair will be much thicker.

3. Use less heat
   Opt to air dry and roller setting, as continuous direct use of heat may lead to dry damaged ends.

4. Add castor oil to your regimen
Our very own castor oil, which we produce in Jamaica, may be used to thicken the hair. Whether used as a prepoo, a sealant, scalp oil, or in your conditioner, continuous use of castor oil will result in thicker growth.

5. Use products with panthenol as its ingredient 
Panthenol helps to thicken hair shaft naturally. Panthenol is also known as vitamin b5 which maybe used in hair products or may be taken orally. It may also be found in your daily hair supplements as a major ingredient.

6. Biotin intake
Biotin intake like panthenol, may thicken the hair naturally. Biotin is a water soluble vitamin, which is also apart of the vitamin b complex family, and is known as vitamin b7. It promotes hair growth and combats dryness. Therefore, opt to take biotin as a part of your daily vitamin regimen.

7. Use protein conditioners weekly or bi weekly
Protein causes the hair to swell in diameter. It also toughens the strands which makes it more resistant to breakage or any hair damage for that matter.

8. Deep Condition more often
Deep conditioning on a regular basis will of course, make the hair more resistant and stronger, by doing so overtime you will notice an increase in thickness of the hair.
