Has anyone tried this to achieve thicker hair?

My hairdresser told me of another couple of clients who have had good results but I'm a bit wary of trying it. My hair is very fine.

I have been using the shampoo for a couple of weeks now. Think there may be a marginal improvement but nothing exciting.

Which one, sodapop? This one?

I'm just bumping this in case anyone else wants to see it.

Alpecin - other shampoos are available smile

I use Nioxin. I think it makes a bit of difference.

Apparently a product called Minoxydil is good.

Mine's short with highlights and I put hair powder in if I get desperate.

It doesn't stop the thinning though - just looks better.
