There are many factors that can cause hair loss and thinning, from ageing and health to medication, stress and even heat. But shoppers of all ages have been blown away by an 'outstanding' shampoo from renowned hair brand Philip Kingsley that leaves users seeing 'new growth' thanks to healthier hair that feels 'thicker'.
One shopper in her early 70s shared her experience, saying, "I have fine, naturally blonde hair even though I'm in my early seventies, but just lately, it has started thinning. Philip Kingsley Density Hair Thickening Shampoo and conditioner have really helped, and they are a joy to use."
The Philip Kingsley Density Hair Thickening Shampoo is more than your average shampoo - costing £32 for a one off payment, or £25.60 (on sale) when subscribing - but its results and the reviews prove that it's worthy of this price tag. Specifically formulated to prevent hair shedding, the shampoo has a few hero ingredients that ensure hair is nourished, hydrated and smooth. Not to mention sensitive scalps soothed.
Key Ingredients and Benefits
Designed to cleanse the scalp and strengthen each strand, the Philip Kingsley Density Hair Thickening Shampoo helps create lasting volume and a fuller-looking appearance, making it an ideal choice for those with thinning hair. Its formula is enriched with hydrolysed pea peptides, known for their antioxidant, moisturising and smoothing benefits, helping to leave hair looking healthier and more resilient. Alongside this, the shampoo contains Hyper-Branched Polymers (supporting structural repair, reportedly) and Strengthening Molecules, and is Trichologist Approved.
Study Results and User Feedback
While the reviews for this shampoo are glowing, a study carried out by the brand supports its claims. It found that, when used in conjunction with the Density Conditioner and Protein Spray - something the brand recommends for optimal results - 92% of participants reported their hair felt more textured, while 25% observed increased volume after just one use. Shoppers can get the shampoo and conditioner as part of a set which is currently reduced to £56.32 from £64.
For a more affordable alternative, the Noughty Get Set Grow Shampoo and Conditioner Duo Bundle (£17.98) delivers impressive volumising benefits without the premium price tag. Formulated with a blend of organic pea sprouts, green robusta coffee beans, piroctone olamine and hydrating hyaluronic acid, it helps leave hair feeling smoother, healthier and visibly fuller. Elsewhere, Absolute Collagen’s Thickening Collagen Complex Shampoo (£18) is reportedly the 'UK’s first collagen complex formulation shampoo that works to nourish, thicken, and volumise thinning hair, while maintaining that all-important lightness'.
Customer Experiences
With a 4.5 star rating out of 5, the Philip Kingsley Density shampoo is loved for helping reduce breakage and making hair feel stronger. In fact, one reviewer shared her journey with her hair and praised the formula for bringing her hair back to how it was 'in my 20s'. She said: "During the menopause my hair was coming out and breaking, however two months of use of the Density thickening shampoo and conditioner my hair is thicker and fuller like when I was in my twenties. Love the products will always purchase from now on. Even my hairdresser asks what am I doing to my hair as it looks so healthy. I have recommended to many of my friends and they will now see the unbelievable difference in just a few weeks."
Someone else remarked: "I noticed the difference after the first use. My hair looked noticeably thicker. Even other people noticed. I have since purchased more and will continue using it. I am really pleased with it and recommend it to anyone with fine hair." Another user shared how transformative adding the shampoo into their routine has been. They said: "The Density range has been an absolute game changer for me. I lost a considerable amount of hair a few months after a serious bout of Covid - it was shocking and depressing. Over the past year I have used this range consistently with seriously impressive results. Thank you!!"
Although one person stated in one review how the concoction is 'hard to lather', they raved: "Really worth the effort when used with the conditioner as hair appears and feels thicker and more voluminous." However, not all reviews were quite as positive, with one dissatisfied having a mixed experience. They explained: "So far, I am not convinced it helps. Shampoo makes my hair greasy and lank." For the most part, however, the shampoo has been a hit. One shopper echoed this and said: "The Density Thickening Shampoo and Conditioner already seem to be working on my thinning, shedding hair. The scalp is less visible, and the hair looks healthy. I am delighted."
