 How to Make Hair Grow Thick
 
  • The emphasis is laid on the importance of healthy diet. For thick and healthy hair, you need to have an intake of healthy and balanced diet. Try taking a balanced diet that contains nutritious food and do not skip meals. Make sure your diet contains enough proteins and include fresh vegetables, eggs, fruits and nuts in your daily intake.
  • Take a multi-vitamin every day. More often than not, it so happens that our body is not able to get the desired vitamins on a daily basis. A good multi vitamin tablet that provides essential vitamins for overall development should suffice.
  • Do not wash your hair daily as it leads to breakage of hair and weakening of the roots. If you have extremely oily hair, consider washing on alternate days and minimize the use of shampoo. If the scalp is too dry, it leads to hair thinning as the naturally produced oil is essential for the hair to grow.
  • Avoid brushing or combing your hair when it is wet. Let it dry naturally and untangle with your fingers or a wide-toothed comb to get rid of the stubborn tangles and then comb gently.
  • Massage definitely works and gently massaging the scalp with your fingertips for 10 minutes daily will ensure your hair grows thicker. Massaging promotes increased blood circulation on the head that will lead to healthier and faster growth of hair.
  • Do not treat your hair to harsh chemicals like hair colors or perms or straightening solutions. This tends to deteriorate the quality of hair and makes it all the more weak and thin. So be happy with your natural hair and try to make it healthy for that gorgeous shine!
