Strictly Come Dancing star Amy Dowden has credited a £32 hair growth serum for helping her achieve 'thick and full' hair following chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer. The UKLASH Hair Growth Serum, which typically costs £40, is currently available with a 20% discount using the code SUMMER20, bringing the price down to £32.
Why Hair Loss Happens
Hair loss can affect both men and women due to various factors such as age, stress, hormones, medication, and medical treatments like chemotherapy. While there is no instant cure, many users have reported significant improvements with over-the-counter serums.
UKLASH Hair Growth Serum: A Best-Seller
The UKLASH Hair Growth Serum is reportedly the UK's number one bestselling hair growth serum. It was so popular upon its 2024 launch that it sold out twice. The lightweight, non-greasy formula is created by biologists and contains AnaGain (pea sprout extract) to stimulate growth at a cellular level, along with turmeric and lemon fruit water to protect and strengthen hair follicles.
Amy Dowden, 35, shared her results in a sponsored Instagram post last year, showcasing impressive shoulder-length blonde hair. She said: 'After losing my hair, I just wanted to protect and look after my hair as much as I possibly can and my hair has never felt so healthy.' She described her hair as 'thick and full' and noted she is 'very proud to say it is all my own'.
Customer Reviews
The serum has over 1,600 reviews and a 4.4-star rating. One user shared: 'Had a patch of hair loss last year and with patience using this product, the patch is completely gone. It is quite remarkable.' Another said: 'After a traumatic event, I lost so much hair. I decided to try the hair serum and I'm blown away with how amazing this is working.' A third reviewer called it 'life-changing', adding: 'I was experiencing hair loss at the age of 22 from stress. My scalp was literally see through.'
Other Options Available
For those seeking a budget-friendly alternative, The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Serum for Hair Density costs £13.50 for 30ml at Cult Beauty. Another option is the Chāmpo Pitta Growth Serum at £34, which uses caffeine, creatine, and red clover extract to target thinning and shedding.
However, not all users saw results. A three-star review noted: 'I have menopausal hair and was hoping to gain some body to my hair however I have not seen much improvement even though I have been using the serum for three months.' Despite this, the majority of customers praise the product, with one 74-year-old user stating: 'It really works. Just using the small bottle, the result of strong regrowth was noticed also by my hairdressers.'
The serum is vegan, fragrance-free, and sulphate-free, making it suitable for sensitive scalps. Its easy pipette applicator allows for quick daily use.
