AFTER transforming her thinning hair to long luscious locks, one woman shared her secret weapon.
She revealed the two-step process she swears by for reversing shedding, and the Amazon buy that made all the difference.
In her viral video, TikTok user Sofia (@sofiahairhealth) showed her followers what her hair looked like before and after she switched up her routine.
She pulled back her locks to show the gaps that had formed, making her scalp clearly visible.
According to Sofia, this issue was most noticeable when she went out in sunny weather.
She eventually found out that she had a condition called androgenic alopecia.
At first, the TikToker thought it would be “impossible” to regrow her once thick locks.
However, she developed a two-step haircare routine which eventually did the job.
Sofia explained that she consistency is key when it comes to re-growing your hair, revealing that it took her a minimum of a year to complete transformation.
For her first step, she used a derma roller on all the areas of her scalp where she had noticed thinning.
You can pick up a Derma Roller measuring 0.5 milimetres for just £4.38 from Amazon.
Derma rollers help to stimulate collagen production and blood flow to the scalp.
