Do hair thickeners work? Yes, they do! But their effects are only temporary, and they have some limitations. Some men who are thinning use wax and pomade to make their hair look fuller. These products are the same as those that were so popular in the 1950s when the popular style for young men was slicked back hair.
In addition to achieving the slick look, these products also add extra thickness to your hair and provide the feeling and appearance of fullness. A thicker hair shaft increases the fullness of one’s hair exponentially. Even small increments of added thickness can have a major impact on the fullness of the hair. Doubling the thickness of a single hair will increase the overall bulk fourfold. So, thickening each and every hair shaft may produce four times more bulk than having more hair!
Propecia
Medications such as Propecia works so well for much the same reason. Propecia not only has the potential to grow new hair, but it also thickens tiny miniaturized hair to provide more coverage.
