How to Choose the Best Men's Hair Product for Fine Hair

As a brand dedicated to the cause of healthy hair, we want to help you make informed choices about your crowning glory. Today we will spill the tea on the best men’s hair products for fine hair. Let’s get started.

What is Fine Hair?

Fine hair actually refers to the texture of your hair, not its density. You can easily find out if you have it or not by comparing a strand of your hair with a thread. If it’s thinner in diameter than the thread, you definitely have fine hair.

Having fine hair is not a bad thing — lots of men (and women) have fine hair.

However, without proper care and maintenance, fine hair can often look limp and flat. The good news is that it can look voluminous and great with the correct hair care products.

What to Consider When Choosing Men’s Hair Products for Fine Hair?

You need to be aware of the needs of your fine hair and pick products that are made for it. The wrong product can weigh your hair down, making it look flat and lifeless.

So, consider the following factors before taking your pick:

1. Scalp Health

Those with fine hair are usually prone to oily scalps. It’s because your scalp has more hair strands per square centimeter compared to those with thick or medium hair. Each of these strands is connected to sebaceous glands in your scalp that secret natural oils, giving you a greasy head.

To combat excessive oil secretion, go for a low-pH shampoo. Even vitamin-infused shampoos work wonders for greasy hair. But if you want to go that extra mile, opt for  shampoos that work for both your scalp and strands.

2. Hair Goals

You also need to be conscious about your hair goals. Sure, you can fix fine hair by styling it. But we recommend investing in products that have long-term benefits.

Start with a good haircut that gives you the illusion of volume. Pair it with hair care products that are lightweight and non-greasy, especially if you prefer to use them every day.

You may have the habit of using gels or pomades for styling your tresses. While there’s nothing wrong with it, try matte volumizing sprays or thickening serums instead. These products will show better results.

3. Ingredients to Choose and Avoid

While the common perception is to steer clear of products containing sulfates and parabens, sulfates, in small amounts, are essential for cleansing your scalp. You just need to ensure that the shampoo you’re choosing has other ingredients beneficial to your hair.

Do avoid products containing alcohol. Alcohol can be drying and damaging to your hair.

Include ingredients like biotin, keratin, or essential amino acids in your hair care routine. These can strengthen the shafts of your hair and prevent them from breaking easily.
