As we age, it's normal for our hair to grow more slowly, feel less full, or lose some of its bounce. But don't worry, slowing hair growth and thinning strands are not a lost cause! With the right products and routine, you can give your hair the boost it needs to look thicker and fuller.

Here is Nicole's expert breakdown of how to combat age-related hair changes and how to stimulate growth.

'

Step 1: Stop "Bad Collagen" with Genesis Serum

As we age, β€œbad collagen” can start to build up and harden in our hair follicles, making it harder for hair to anchor and grow. That’s where Genesis Serum comes in. This powerhouse formula helps prevent that collagen from hardening, keeping your follicles healthy and supporting strong hair growth.

Key Ingredients:

  • Edelweiss Native Cells – protect the scalp from oxidative stress and strengthen follicles
  • Ginger Root Extract – stimulates blood flow for healthier, more active hair growth
  • Aminexil – helps prevent thinning and hair loss by keeping strands firmly anchored

Step 2: Boost Hair Density with Densifique Cures

As we get older, the growth phase of our hair, the time when each follicle is actively producing hair, starts to spread out. That means not all hairs are growing at the same time, making your hair feel thinner and less dense.

Enter KΓ©rastase Densifique Cures. These treatments contain Stemoxydine, a clever ingredient that essentially β€œtricks” your follicles into hitting the growth phase together. The result? Hair that looks fuller, thicker, and more vibrant across your scalp.

Key Ingredients:

  • Stemoxydine – Mimics stem cells' optimal environment that awakens dormant follicles.
  • Yang Complex – Helps reduce the dormant phase & boost the growth phase, helps create visibly thicker hair.

Step 3: Fill and Strengthen with Première Serum Filler

By this stage, we’re focusing on the hair strands themselves. Over time, tiny gaps can appear in the hair cuticle, which makes hair feel thinner and look less smooth. That’s where PremiΓ¨re Serum Filler comes in. Packed with peptides and nourishing ingredients, it fills in those gaps, strengthens each strand, and helps hair look fuller, healthier, and more resilient.

Key Ingredients:

  • Peptides - short-chain amino acids help refill and smooth the hair's surface, making it look and feel healthier and shinier
  • Glycine - rebuilds the inner structure of the hair. Works deep within the fibre to support long-term strength and resilience
