One woman revealed the shampoo she used to level up her locks, calling it "the best".

She added that she is "really happy with this shampoo".

Hair re-growth FAQs
Anabel Kingsley, Consultant Trichologist and Brand President at Philip Kingsley spoke exclusively to Fabulous.
How long does it take for hair to grow back?
Hair grows, on average, half an inch a month. You cannot speed this up.
Do rosemary oil and scalp massages work?
Oils do not promote hair growth. In terms of rosemary oil, the current trend stems from one small study carried out on 50 men in 2015. No women were involved, and the study compared the effects of 2 per cent minoxidil to Rosemary oil. 2 per cent minoxidil doesn't do much for
male pattern hair loss anyway, so the results were not very impressive. Oils do serve a purpose in conditioning hair treatments though. They help add shine and smooth the hair cuticle to lock-in moisture and improve combability. Scalp massages alone won't cure hair loss, but it can help relax you, aid in lymphatic drainage, exfoliate and help topicals penetrate.
Are there any products or foods/vitamins you recommend someone using or eating to help with hair regrowth?
To support healthy hair regrowth, if you are experiencing hair thinning we'd recommend our Density Preserving Scalp Drops clinically proven to help slow hair loss with continued daily use within three months.
Telogen effluvium (hair shedding) due to nutritional deficiencies can often be simply treated with changes to your diet, and nutritional supplements such as our specially formulated Density Healthy Hair Complex and Density Amino Acid Booster.
Iron and Ferritin (stored iron) in red meat, dried apricots and dark, leafy greens. Vitamin B12 in animal products and fortified plant-based foods. Protein from oily fish, lean meat, cottage cheese, tofu, nuts, chickpeas, and beans.
However, there may be an underlying cause for their hair loss and rather than this being masked by using an off-the-shelf product, they should be encouraged to seek the advice of a specialist such as a Trichologist.
Other customers shared their experiences with the product in the Boots review section.
"I like it, [it has] pleasant, non-chemical scent, does not strip hair nor make it greasy," wrote one shopper.
"This shampoo is the best I've ever used. My hairline has changed for the better! It's also probably the cheapest I've used. Great product!" said another buyer.
"I was delighted to find this in Boots at a very reasonable price so bought the shampoo and conditioner. Smells lovely, lathers well, I will definitely buy this again," commented a third person.
"Great shampoo, very good [for] sensitive scalps, leaves hair clean and healthy-feeling without weighing it down," said another Boots customer.

Eye-watering cost of ADHD handouts in Scotland revealed – and experts warn it'll only get bigger
The next year there was a 28-times increase to almost £14million 'BALLOONING' BENEFITS Eye-watering cost of ADHD handouts in Scotland revealed – and experts warn it'll only get bigger Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ADHD handouts are set to hit £100million just three years after the payments were introduced. Social Security Scotland handed out £500,000 in 2022, after taking over the benefits. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 The cost of ADHD handouts have skyrocketed to £100million in three years Credit: Getty 2 Liz Smith said Scotland's benefits bill is "ballooning out of control" Credit: Alamy The next year there was a 28-times increase to almost £14million. This ballooned again in 2024 to £35million, while this year the figure is predicted to top £50million. And experts warn the bill for sufferers from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder will only get bigger. Scottish Tory social security spokeswoman Liz Smith said: 'Scotland's benefits bill is ballooning out of control. 'While it is essential that adult disability payments support the most vulnerable, it's also essential there is a strong focus on getting as many people as possible back into work.' Scottish Lib Dems leader Alex Cole-Hamilton added: 'The system is broken. We should be spending far more to prevent and treat mental health conditions.' In the past three years, 13,896 adults have applied for ADHD payouts, with 8,204 approved. Those on a standard rate get almost £4,000 a year, while the average claimant has received £8,000 since the system went live. Around two to four per cent of adults have the condition and new Government stats show a surge in benefit applications. Claimants do not need a formal ADHD diagnosis for approval but must have supporting information from medical specialists. New sinister threat issued in ongoing Scotland gang war It emerged this week that firms are offering a 'no-win, no fee' service to help with ADHD claims. John O'Connell, from the TaxPayers' Alliance, said: 'The surge in claims for certain conditions calls into question the whole benefits system itself, which is designed to help people in need. "Politicians must ensure only those genuinely deserving receive support.' But Bill Colley, chair of the ADHD Coalition Scotland, said: 'Awards are made not on the basis of a simple diagnosis but on the severity of symptoms and thus impairment, particularly where ADHD leads to complex mental health difficulties.' Since disability payments launched, SSC paid out £2.9 billion, with £1.2 billion going to new applicants and £1.6 billion to those transferred from the DWP. The Scottish Fiscal Commission recently warned of a cash crisis, predicting ministers will be spending £2.2billion more on benefits than they receive from the UK Government by 2030/31. This would see the total welfare bill balloon to £9.4billion, about 15 per cent of the total Scots budget. A SSS spokesperson said: 'Social security is a human right. We are committed to ensuring eligible people get the support they deserve. 'While a diagnosis is not required to apply, we do need supporting information from a professional such as a doctor or psychologist who knows how the person's condition impacts their daily life.'
