AFTER struggling for years to grow out her locks, one woman shared the secret to her hair transformation.
Using a budget-friendly buy available from Asda, she perfected her tresses, leaving them longer and thicker than ever.
AmazonA woman shared her hair transformation after using a budget-friendly shampoo[/caption]
AmazonThe woman explained that she had struggled to grow her hair for years before discovering the haircare item[/caption]
The woman revealed that her hair had become badly damaged over the yearrs.
Her locks even “snapped badly” at one point in her haircare journey.
“The first picture was about a year ago, I couldn’t get my hair to grow and it snapped badly in one place,” she explained.
She went on to say that she had “tried everything” to tackle the problem.
“I have used two bottles of this and in the last few months my hair has grown so well and got much thicker,” the reviewer continued.
Hair re-growth FAQs
Anabel Kingsley, Consultant Trichologist and Brand President at Philip Kingsley spoke exclusively to Fabulous.
How long does it take for hair to grow back?
Hair grows, on average, half an inch a month. You cannot speed this up.
Do rosemary oil and scalp massages work?
Oils do not promote hair growth. In terms of rosemary oil, the current trend stems from one small study carried out on 50 men in 2015. No women were involved, and the study compared the effects of 2 per cent minoxidil to Rosemary oil. 2 per cent minoxidil doesn’t do much for male pattern hair loss anyway, so the results were not very impressive. Oils do serve a purpose in conditioning hair treatments though. They help add shine and smooth the hair cuticle to lock-in moisture and improve combability. Scalp massages alone won’t cure hair loss, but it can help relax you, aid in lymphatic drainage, exfoliate and help topicals penetrate.
Are there any products or foods/vitamins you recommend someone using oreating to help with hair regrowth?
To support healthy hair regrowth, if you are experiencing hair thinning we’d recommend our Density Preserving Scalp Drops clinically proven to help slow hair loss with continued daily use within three months.
Telogen effluvium (hair shedding) due to nutritional deficiencies can often be simply treated with changes to your diet, and nutritional supplements such as our specially formulated Density Healthy Hair Complex and Density Amino Acid Booster.
Iron and Ferritin (stored iron) in red meat, dried apricots and dark, leafy greens. Vitamin B12 in animal products and fortified plant-based foods. Protein from oily fish, lean meat, cottage cheese, tofu, nuts, chickpeas, and beans.
However, there may be an underlying cause for their hair loss and rather than this being masked by using an off-the-shelf product, they should be encouraged to seek the advice of a specialist such as a Trichologist.
“Just had to share the progress as I have been trying for about three years to sort my hair and this appeared to work so well for me.
And while she recently purchased the brand’s matching conditioner, she pointed out “the shampoo seems to work great on its own”.
“The smell is amazing! It’s worth a try,” she told her fellow Amazon users.
Her pictures backed up her statement, showing the increased length of her locks since using the shampoo.
Manufacturers recommend regular use of the product to maintain results.

According to gossip site Deux Moi, the pair enjoyed their passionate moment on a balcony in Venice during a recent trip to Italy.
Billie, who has been in the public eye since 2015, has seen her love life in the spotlight too.
She previously dated rapper Q, singer Jesse Rutherford and actor Matthew Tyler Vorcein the past.
Yet now The Fault In Our Stars actor Nat appear’s to be her new squeeze.
It came after rumours of her relationship with the Los Angeles native started last year.
At the time, a source close to the pair insisted they were “100 per cent a couple.”
In the new images, the pair can be seen enjoying a glass of fizz each before taking a series of images against the stunning Italian backdrop.
Ocean Eyes hitmaker Billie even donned an almost identical outfit to her partner, opting for a pale T-Shirt and jean trousers.
She left her raven locks in a naturally wavy style and went make-up free for their special vacation moment.
In September, Nat and his brother Alex were the support act for Billie on her Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour, before Nat starred in her CHIHIRO video.
They were then linked in March after leaving the iHeartRadio Music Awards together.
OPENING UP
Birds Of A Feather songstress Billie previously opened up on her sexuality – before accusing a reporter of outing her.
In December 2023, Billie was the cover star for Variety magazine. In the spread, she said: “I’ve never really felt like I could relate to girls very well.
“I love them so much. I love them as people.
“I’m attracted to them as people. I’m attracted to them for real.”
She later confirmed that she didn’t mean to come out publicly at Variety’s Hitmaker event on December 2.
She said, “I kind of thought, ‘wasn’t it obvious?'” I didn’t realize people didn’t know. I just don’t really believe in [coming out].
“I’m just like, ‘Why can’t we just exist’? I’ve been doing this for a long time, and I just didn’t talk about it. Whoops.”
Billie then continued, “But I saw the article, and I was like, ‘Oh I guess I came out today.’ OK cool.
“It’s exciting to me because I guess people didn’t know, but it’s cool that they know.”
Although she seemed cool and composed during this red carpet exchange, Billie later accused Variety of outing her on Instagram.
On the social media site she wrote: “Thanks Variety for my award and for also outing me on a red carpet at 11 am instead of talking about anything else that matters.”
The post continued: “I like boys and girls leave me alone about it please literally who cares.”

THE first ever home charging scheme for electric vehicles a has been rolled out in Ireland.
The pilot phase was produced through a partnership between EasyGo, Ireland’s biggest electric vehicle charging network, and the Department of Transport.
easygoThe pilot aims to tackle off street parking barriers to EV charging[/caption]
easygoIt’s hoped that the move will help the country reach climate goals[/caption]
It’s been labelled the Shared Charging Network.
The initiative aims to reduce what they claim is one of the biggest obstacles to EV driving – a lack of off street parking and home charging.
Under the scheme, homeowners can share their private EV chargers with neighbours and other members of the public.
This can be done through the EasyGo platform, which aims to create a community-powered solution to charging accessibility.
The first phase of the scheme has been launched as a pilot and is only accessible in a few areas.
Participation is currently coming from homeowners in Dingle, Co Kerry, as well as Finglas, Phibsborough, and Stoneybatter in Dublin.
Organisers said that anyone interested in partaking in the scheme can apply for the website.
From there, their location and property is taken into consideration.
Successful applicants are given an EasyGo EV charger for free, and can then share access to the private charger via the EasyGo platform.
They said that it’s an ideal practical solution for those who don’t have access to off street parking.
The pilot will run for the rest of 2025.
It aims to gather data to inform future EV policy and infrastructure planning.
Those behind the scheme said: “Shared charging models have shown promise internationally in helping reduce pressure on public networks, promoting sustainable transport, and strengthening local community ties.”
CEO of EasyGo, Ollie Chatten, said: “We are delighted to officially launch the Shared Charging Initiative.
“This scheme has the power to reshape how communities think about EV infrastructure – enabling people to participate directly in Ireland’s low-emission future.
“It’s a meaningful step toward inclusive, scalable charging access.”
And the initiative was welcomed by the transport minister, who said the move would help the country to achieve climate goals.
Minister for Transport Darragh O’Brien said: “This innovative pilot reflects how local action can support national ambition.
“By enabling homeowners to share access to EV chargers, the Shared Charging Scheme taps into the power of community to close infrastructure gaps, accelerate EV adoption, and help achieve our climate goals.
“It’s a practical, inclusive, and forward-thinking initiative that strengthens the resilience and accessibility of Ireland’s charging network.”
