Shaz and Kiks/ Ceremonia

Growing your hair long doesn't happen overnight—it takes time, patience, and care. We can't really help you with the first two things, but when it comes to care, we can point you in the direction of the best hair growth products (including these shampoos for thinning hair).

Of course these aren't magic fixes—and it will take time to see results—but the shampoos, conditioners, serums, masks, oils, and head massagers in this gallery were created to help you obtain and maintain longer, stronger tresses. Many of the products are packed with ingredients that stimulate hair growth such as biotin, rosemary oil, and vitamins. They also aim to add volume to thin hair, keep your scalp healthy, nourish your hair follicles, add shine, and fight culprits like breakage and split ends.

Use these products regularly and they may help your hair grow longer and stay that way, keeping it strong from root to tip. And even if you don't notice an increase in hair growth, you may find your hair looks thicker, which can go a long way in making you feel confident. Once you've found the best product for you, why not experiment with a new style? Check out these royal family-inspired 'dos and these fun ombre looks.
