While FUE has proven itself to be a revolutionary treatment for guys struggling with hair loss, it's not always a viable option. Not only does the surgery come with a hefty price tag, before you're even considered a viable candidate you have to prove an established pattern of hair loss. Which means there's an awkward 'in between' phase where thinning is apparent but not chronic enough to warrant treatment. With many men refusing Propecia (finasteride) and Rogaine (minoxidil) on account of the side effects, the only option left is a thickening product that creates a temporary bulking effect. Fortunately they're a lot better today than they used to be.
If you have early signs of thinning or hair that's lost its strength, consider these innovative solutions.
Hair Thickening Fibres by NANOGENThese clever fibers cling to individual hairs, making them appear thicker. The cosmetic camouflage is made from keratin — the same structural protein that makes up hair — along with light deflecting dyes, for natural looking results. Easily one of the best quick fixes on the market, the fibers are available in 10 different shades that adapt to your exact hair color.$61.31 at Nanogen.co.uk

Thickening Spray by NIOXINBy now you've got the gist of how thickening products work: a key ingredient binds to hair shafts, creating a temporarily fuller head of hair.

Phytolium 4 by PHYTOA re-densifying treatment containing four patents for 'chronic' thinning, devised by France's foremost expert in hair care. Packed with glycoproteins to stimulate regrowth and procyanidins to protect the hair bulb, 79% of volunteers found the treatment to be effective after four months of use. Application is longwinded and requires commitment (massage a phial of the concentrate into the scalp three times a week after shampooing) but it's well worth the effort.$65.00 at Phyto-USA.com
