Many women have to deal with hair loss, with common causes being hormonal changes, ageing, genetics and medication.
It can make women self-conscious about their appearance, but there are ways to combat it.
Consultant dermatologist at The Lister Hospital Dr Angela Tewari spoke exclusively to GB News about ingredients to "promote thicker and longer locks".
She said: "I recommend incorporating key ingredients that nourish and strengthen the hair from root to tip. One of these is minoxidil."
The dermatologist recommended minoxidil to stimulate growth
GETTYDr Tewari explained that minoxidil at two or five per cent is "a clinically proven treatment to fight against hair loss".
She advised: "It stimulates hair growth and improves density by extending the hair's natural growth phase."
Aside from minoxidil, topical preparations containing "niacinamide, turmeric and zinc" are very good choices.
Dr Tewari advised: "They support hair strength, reduce breakage, and thicken up the hair shaft, making hair appear fuller over time."
When it comes to products, the dermatologist recommended using a caffeine-based shampoo to "aid hair growth".
She said: "It works by stimulating the hair follicles and improving circulation, encouraging healthier strands."
Peptides and keratin are also good choices for women, as they work by "strengthening the hair shaft".
Dr Tewari advised: "They reduce damage and enhance thickness for a healthier overall look."

When washing your hair, use "lukewarm water instead of hot" and prioritise your scalp health.
The doctor explained: "Scalp care should also be a priority, as a well-nourished scalp provides the foundation for healthy hair growth.
"Regular exfoliation, the use of scalp treatments, and avoiding product build-up can all contribute to healthier, fuller hair."
Another woman who reversed her receding hairline credited her transformation to one product, which produced "amazing results".
