Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted February 15, 2019 Administrators Share Posted February 15, 2019 Usually, slicking your hair back makes your hair look thicker, but it depends on where the hair loss is located. If you have most of the hair loss primarily in the hairline, then slicking the hair back will expose the hairline and thus, expose the hair loss more. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

But also have very slight thinning i think in the front also. So id say i got some crown thinning with very slight diffuse thinning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted February 15, 2019 Administrators Share Posted February 15, 2019 It just depends on where the hair loss is concentrated, for most they slick their hair back to cover up a bald spot or thin area. But this depends on the length of the hair etc. In some cases, a slicked back hairstyle may highlight the hair loss even more, it just depends. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Pete-from-Farjo Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 (edited) If you've just got a bit of thinning going on you should try using concealers. They can work wonders.

Senior Member gillenator Posted March 8, 2019 Senior Member Share Posted March 8, 2019 I also brush in a front to back style which helps create added illusionary volume...and my hair is dry when doing this. Phillyman, is your hair wet or dry when you do the brush back? Gillenator Independent Patient Advocate I am not a physician and not employed by any doctor/clinic.

Use natural and home remedies for hair loss problem. Eat a healthy diet. use onion juice. Massage your scalp with oil twice a week. Wash your hair with cold water avoid warm water to wash hair. Reduce stress. Avoid chemicals and heating products. Yeah....except that none of the stuff you mention in your post actually works to combat hair loss.

Senior Member pkipling Posted March 12, 2019 Senior Member Share Posted March 12, 2019 Experiment with different products as well. Using a gel can make it look thinner, particularly with this hairstyle. But pastes/fibers/etc. can add volume and density. Using a blowdryer as Gillenator suggested is also helpful.
