A hair specialist has highlighted the importance of optimal scalp health for proper growth

Hair growth is a widespread challenge, particularly for women facing an onslaught of hormonal fluctuations.

With perseverance and the right techniques, however, most people achieve the desired results.


A hair specialist believes selecting a shampoo with the right ingredients is imperative for hair growth.

Jen Ronzitti, known as JenRonFit on TikTok, told her viewers: “You can have thicker hair… even at 40! But how? The secret is in your products and how effectively you stimulate and nourish your scalp.

“Scalp massages are a great start, but if you want noticeable results with thicker hair and less shedding, what you put on your hair—and your habits—need to support that goal!”

“As we age, it’s important to focus on our scalp—the source of growth! But… not just any shampoo or treatment will do! The products I’ve been using have been clinically tested and formulated for maximum results.

“The results have been mind-blowing—not only for me but also for my 1,400+ personal clients. Everything I use contains active, naturally based ingredients like melatonin, caffeine, and Capixyl."

One potential effect of melatonin is that it could extend the anagen phase of the hair cycle, which is the active growth phase.

Capixyl, on the other hand, is a natural compound believed to help stimulate hair growth by targeting hair loss on multiple levels.

It may do this by strengthening hair follicles and potentially reducing DHT-related hair thinning.

Similarly, caffeine may stimulate the hair follicles and improve circulation, encouraging healthier strands.

Melatonin is a hormone naturally produced by the body to regulate sleep-wake cycles. It also has antioxidant properties that may contribute to hair growth.

“This powerhouse blend of ingredients is not only infused into my daily thickening serum but also into my shampoo and conditioner," explained Jen.

“With the perfect blend of active ingredients and consistency, dormant follicles will get the jolt they need to wake up and perform.

“You’ll see up to 92 per cent less hair fall, less breakage, thicker, denser, and fuller hair, a faster growth rate, and longer, stronger strands!”
