Luscious Locks: Tips for Getting Thicker Hair

8. Protect hair from heat

Many fancy hairstyles require heat treatments, such as straightening or curling. Flat irons and curling irons can damage hair, which can result in broken strands and split ends that make hair appear thinner. Try cutting back on heat treatments and keeping your hair natural, and you may notice more thickness. Avoid overwashing and use heat protectant spray before styling to keep breakage to a minimum and reduce hair loss. The stronger your strands are, the thicker your hair will be. Plus, your hair will appreciate a break from all that heat.
