New products for fine or thinnning hair
Plump up the volume with our edit of the best new beauty products to boost growth and add thickness to fine or thinning hair.
Swell 3-Step Advanced Volumizing System, £23.50
Hairdresser Andrew Bidwell who specialises in working with clients who have fine or thin hair says that preparation is key when it comes to successfully blow-drying fine hair.
'I only shampoo the hair roots and apply conditioner just to the ends. After towel drying I suggest using a root boosting product like Swell Root Nutrient Complex, £32, to give a long-lasting hold and using a round barrelled brush to ensure air gets right to the root of the hair.'
Our tester was also a huge fan of the Swell 3-Step Advanced Volumizing System, £23.50, which made a visible difference to the texture and look of her hair.

Viviscal Volumising Hair Fibres, £19.95
Formulated with keratin, a protein naturally found in hair, each fibre in the loose powder in Viviscal Volumising Hair Fibres, £19.95, has an electrostatic coating that binds it to the hair shaft, instantly creating density and making the scalp look less visible.
All you do is shake it along partings or into sparse areas and leave it. It looks natural and doesn't budge until you shampoo it out, plus it comes in six shades, from black to grey, to blend in with your natural colour. Genius!

L'Oreal Professionnel Serioxyl from £25
Our tester tried out the new L'Oreal Professionnel Serioxyl range for six weeks to see if it really delivered.'Although my hair is still very thin and fine, it feels much stronger and less brittle, and I think its appearance has improved dramatically.
I tested all 5 products from the range but the stand-out one for me was the Thicker Hair Serum, £25, which immediately improved the appearance of my hair. It separated the strands and made them look bouncy and full of body.'
