Why the parting gives it away

In women, thinning usually spreads across the top of the head while the front hairline stays. A parting that was once fine starts to look wider, especially under lights.

Factors often involved

Family history, hormonal change such as after childbirth or around menopause, stress and constant pulling from tight styles are often mentioned. Usually more than one factor is at play.

Styling tricks that help

Switching the side of your parting, a zig-zag parting or a little volume at the roots can make the top look fuller for now. See hairstyles for thin hair.

Options at Anggun

Simulation can make the parting look fuller on the same day, with privacy for women who wear a tudung. The scalp check decides whether it suits you.
