Ageing hair can sometimes be brittle and thin due to a lack of hormones that promote good cuticle health.
Fortunately, many of these changes can be prevented with a little help from natural products, if used correctly.
Vicky Derosa, a beauty influencer in her late fifties, claims she used natural oils to undo years of damage.
In a recent TikTok clip, the content creator said her hair started showing signs of struggle when she entered her golden years.

But thanks to coconut oil and hairline concealer, Derosa restored its shine and vitality in just a few weeks.
She recommends using the oil as a mask to enjoy the ingredient's conditioning properties for the scalp and hair.
Although the oil doesn't contain any nutrients that provide specific benefits when applied topically, it has a protective effect on the scalp.
The barrier created by oil blocks bacteria and irritants from causing more damage.
When maintaining colour, Vicky refrains from using dye but instead opts for hairline concealer to fill in her hairline.
"I decided to go on this journey of really getting my hair super healthy," she told followers.
"I decided that what must have been hurting my hair was all the chemicals on it.
"I started using coconut oil twice a week, sleeping with coconut oil and then washing my hair."
This secret weapon allows Vicky to create the illusion of thicker hair without having to use a single chemical.
By eliminating harsh products and replacing them with natural ones, the beauty fan slowly noticed her hair thicken and grow.
Hair concealer comes in various shades and can be applied straight to the root. It can be applied with a blending brush for an extra-natural finish.

"That’s what I did. No heat, just these two products, keep away from the chemicals for a little while, and your hair will actually look fuller, thicker and stronger."
In a previous clip, the beauty influencer shared that she occasionally uses castor and rosemary oil as a hair treatment.
She said she uses the remedy at least once a week, claiming it has made a big difference to the quality of her hair.
