If you’ve ever wished for longer, thicker, healthier hair—you're not alone. Whether you're growing out a bob, recovering from a bad haircut, or trying to restore volume lost due to stress or damage, knowing how to promote faster and thicker hair growth is key.

At Venelle Salon & Spa in Park Slope, Brooklyn, we help clients with all hair types develop healthy, realistic hair growth routines using salon-tested methods, products, and treatments.

In this guide, we’ll cover:

  • Natural and professional tips to grow hair longer and faster

  • What causes hair thinning or slow growth

  • The best salon and at-home products to boost hair density and strength


🧬 First, What Affects Hair Growth?

Hair grows in a cycle: anagen (growth), catagen (transition), and telogen (resting/shedding).
On average, hair grows about ½ inch per month, or 6 inches per year, but several factors can impact that:

✅ Genetics
✅ Age & hormones
✅ Nutrition & lifestyle
✅ Scalp health
✅ Hair damage & breakage
✅ Product use & hair care routine

💡 The key to growing your hair faster and thicker is to support the scalp, minimize breakage, and strengthen the strands you already have.


🔟 Top 10 Tips for Growing Hair Faster and Thicker

1. 🧴 Keep Your Scalp Healthy

Think of your scalp as the “soil” for hair. A clean, balanced scalp promotes stronger, healthier hair growth.

  • Exfoliate weekly to remove buildup

  • Use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo

  • Book a scalp detox treatment at Venelle

💬 Ask our stylists about Eufora’s Scalp Balance line for a healthier foundation.


2. ✂️ Get Regular Trims

Yes, trimming your hair actually helps it grow! By removing split ends, you prevent breakage from moving up the shaft.

📅 Schedule trims every 8–12 weeks to maintain length and thickness.


3. 🍎 Nourish Hair from Within

Your diet plays a major role in hair health. Fuel your follicles with:

  • Protein (eggs, fish, legumes)

  • Biotin-rich foods (nuts, sweet potatoes)

  • Iron (leafy greens, lentils)

  • Omega-3s (salmon, flaxseeds)

  • Water!

💊 Consider a hair-specific supplement like Nutrafol or Viviscal, available at salons and pharmacies.


4. 🧖‍♀️ Use Hair Growth-Boosting Products

Look for ingredients like:

  • Peptides: stimulate the follicle

  • Biotin & keratin: strengthen strands

  • Caffeine: improves scalp circulation

  • Castor oil or rosemary: natural stimulants

Venelle Salon carries growth-supporting brands like:

  • Eufora Thickening Regimen

  • K18 Leave-In Molecular Repair

  • Olaplex No.0 + No.3 Bond Builders

  • R+Co Dallas Biotin Thickening Line


5. 💤 Sleep on Silk

Switching to a silk or satin pillowcase reduces friction and breakage while you sleep.
Wrap your hair in a silk scarf or use a protective bonnet at night.


6. 💆‍♀️ Massage Your Scalp

Just 5 minutes a day of gentle scalp massage can increase blood flow to the hair follicles. Try:

  • Using fingertips in circular motions

  • Adding a drop of rosemary oil or peppermint oil

  • Using a scalp massaging brush in the shower


7. 🚫 Avoid Excessive Heat & Chemicals

Too much heat styling, bleach, or color can cause breakage and slow down growth.

✔️ Use a heat protectant
✔️ Keep hot tools below 350°F
✔️ Ask Venelle about gentle color services like ammonia-free glosses and toners


8. 🧘‍♀️ Manage Stress

Stress can trigger telogen effluvium, a condition where hair shifts into the shedding phase.

🧘 Try:

  • Yoga

  • Meditation

  • Scalp treatments

  • Massage or spa services at Venelle (yes, we offer both!)


9. 🌿 Use Natural Oils

Incorporate these oils into your weekly hair care:

  • Castor oil: thickens and strengthens

  • Coconut oil: prevents protein loss

  • Rosemary oil: promotes circulation and regrowth

  • Jojoba oil: mimics scalp’s natural oils

Use before shampooing or as a leave-in.


10. ✨ Try Professional Treatments at Venelle

Get a boost with in-salon hair growth services, including:

  • Scalp exfoliation and detox

  • LED scalp stimulation therapy

  • Olaplex/K18 bond repair treatments

  • Eufora scalp serums
