As we age, just like our skin, our hair goes through changes. You might notice a loss of colour, reduced fullness, or a different texture. That’s why it’s important to adjust your haircare routine over time. Here are our top three expert-recommended ways to care for your hair and maintain strong, healthy locks.
1. Routine Scalp Massages Are Exactly What the Doctor Ordered
Scalp massages are a simple yet effective way to support healthy hair growth. If your hair has started to thin or feel less voluminous, regular scalp massages can make a real difference. Whether done professionally or at home, giving your scalp a few minutes of gentle attention encourages blood circulation and stimulates hair follicles.
For an extra boost, incorporate essential oils such as rosemary oil, which is known to help prevent hair fall and promote growth. Since it works on the hair follicles rather than the strands, it’s suitable for all hair types. Warm the oil slightly and massage it into your scalp using circular motions for best results.
2. Switch Out Your Shampoo & Conditioner
Just as your skincare evolves with age, your hair benefits from targeted, clinically advanced formulations that provide hydration, strength, and volume. Mature or thinning hair often requires extra nourishment to maintain fullness and manageability — the right shampoo and conditioner can make all the difference.
For stronger, healthier-looking hair, try the Augustinus Bader The Shampoo, which gently cleanses while supporting scalp and follicle health. Follow with Augustinus Bader The Leave In Hair Treatment, enriched with TFC8® technology to hydrate, strengthen, and revitalise hair from root to tip.
For enhanced thickness and resilience, incorporate the Revitalash Thickening Shampoo, which nourishes strands while reducing breakage, and pair it with the Revitalash Thickening Conditioner. This lightweight yet deeply hydrating duo restores shine, smoothness, and manageability, leaving hair visibly fuller and more voluminous.
3. A Balanced Diet Goes a Long Way
Healthy hair starts from within. Eating a nutrient-rich, balanced diet supports growth, strength, and shine. Including key vitamins and minerals in your meals — especially those that boost protein, zinc, magnesium, and vitamin B — can make a noticeable difference in hair thickness and overall health.
For optimal results, try adding more of these hair-loving foods to your diet:
- Eggs
- Berries
- Spinach
- Fatty fish
- Sweet potatoes
- Avocados
- Nuts
- Seeds
- Lentils
So, stock up on those nutrient-rich foods (eggs, nuts, leafy greens, and lentils) and give your body the building blocks it needs for stronger, shinier, and fuller hair.
