Quick Fixes That Work Instantly

Some hair hacks take months to work. These? They work right now.

1. Get the Right Haircut & Styling Tricks

Your haircut plays a huge role in how thick your hair looks. If your current style is making your hair lie flat against your scalp, you’re not doing yourself any favors.

• Go for layers – Layers add movement and volume, making hair appear thicker.

• Consider blunt cuts – Blunt ends make hair look fuller compared to wispy, over-thinned ends.

• Side parts = instant lift – A deep side part creates the illusion of volume at the roots.

• Tease strategically – A little backcombing at the crown can add instant height (just don’t overdo it!).

2. Master the Blow-Drying Technique

A good blow-dry can mean the difference between meh and whoa, is that a wig?

• Start upside down – Flip your head over while drying to create root lift.

• Use a round brush – This helps create volume as you dry.

• Cool-shot trick – Blast your roots with cool air to lock in lift.

• Volumizing mousse or spray – Apply it before drying for extra body.

3. Root-Lifting Powders & Sprays (And Their Downsides)

Root-lifting powders, texturizing sprays, and hair fibers are lifesavers—but they come with drawbacks.

• They add grit – Great for texture but can dry out your hair.

• They build up fast – Too much can make your hair feel stiff or dirty.

• Not waterproof – Humidity or sweat? Say goodbye to your volume.

• Fibers can shift – While they create the illusion of thickness, they can move or rub off if not set properly.

4. Hair Concealers: The Game-Changer for Instant Fullness

If you’re dealing with thinning hair, root sprays, fibers and powders only do so much. proTHIK’s waterproof hair concealer is the real game-changer.

• It coats each strand, making hair appear thicker instantly.

• It’s waterproof, so sweat, rain, or humidity won’t ruin the effect.

• It lasts all day, unlike sprays that wear off.

• No crunchy texture – Just natural, full-looking hair.

Pro tip: Apply proTHIK to dry hair, then lightly brush through and style for a seamless blend.

What Not to Do (Common Mistakes That Make Hair Look Thinner)

Sometimes, it’s not about what you do, but what you avoid.

🚫 Over-conditioning at the roots – Makes hair too soft and flat. Keep conditioner on the ends!

🚫 Using too much oil – Oils are great for moisture but can weigh hair down and make it look thinner.

🚫 Ignoring your scalp – A healthy scalp = healthy hair. Avoid build-up, keep it clean, and make sure to wash your hair regularly to maintain volume and freshness.

🚫 Skipping regular trims – Split ends can make hair look straggly instead of full.

Best Long-Term Hair Thickening Habits

Want lasting volume? Incorporate these habits:

✅ Eat hair-boosting foods – Protein, iron, and biotin-rich foods help hair grow strong.

✅ Use thickening shampoos – Look for formulas with keratin and biotin.

✅ Scalp massages – Stimulate blood flow to encourage healthy growth.

✅ Protect against heat damage – Over-styling leads to breakage and thinner-looking hair.

✅ Choose the right pillowcase – Silk pillowcases reduce friction and prevent breakage.

✅ Protect your hair at night – If you wear a scarf while sleeping, make sure to tie your hair properly but not too tight to prevent breakage and discomfort.

If you want instant results without damaging your hair, proTHIK is your best bet. Unlike root sprays or fibers that fade, proTHIK delivers a waterproof, long-lasting, natural-looking fullness—without the crunch.
