Age-Related Hair Thinning: Understanding the Causes and How to Support Healthier, Fuller Hair

As we age, it’s completely natural for our hair to change in texture, density, and growth rate. Many people begin noticing thinning, shedding, or reduced volume in their 40s and beyond.

The good news? Age-related hair thinning is common, gradual, and — with the right support — can be effectively managed. At Unveil, we believe that understanding why these changes happen is the first step to restoring strength, fullness, and confidence.

Why Hair Thins with Age

Each strand of hair follows a natural cycle of growth (anagen), transition (catagen), and rest/shedding (telogen). Over time, biological and lifestyle factors can disrupt this cycle, leading to slower regrowth and finer strands.

Common Causes of Age-Related Hair Thinning

  • Hormonal shifts: Decreasing estrogen and increasing DHT (dihydrotestosterone) can shrink hair follicles, causing finer regrowth.

  • Nutrient depletion: Lower levels of iron, biotin, and amino acids can weaken hair structure and reduce elasticity.

  • Reduced circulation: With age, scalp blood flow may decline, limiting nutrient and oxygen delivery to follicles.

  • Oxidative stress: Free radicals and environmental damage can impair follicle function.

  • Lifestyle and health factors: Stress, medications, diet, and hormonal changes all contribute to thinning.

Over time, these factors lead to hair that grows back shorter, weaker, and less dense — especially around the crown and hairline.

 


 

Signs of Age-Related Hair Thinning

If you’ve started noticing changes in your hair’s volume or texture, you’re not alone. Common signs include:

  • A wider part or more visible scalp at the crown

  • Loss of volume or fullness, especially around the hairline

  • Slower regrowth after shedding

  • Hair that feels dry, brittle, or fragile

  • Fewer new hairs in the regrowth cycle

These shifts are gradual and natural, but you can help support your scalp and follicles with targeted care — both inside and out.

 


 

How to Support Hair Health from the Inside Out

1. Nourish from Within — Unveil N°5 Hair Nutrition Supplements

Healthy hair starts from within. As we age, our bodies become less efficient at absorbing nutrients that support hair growth.

N°5 helps to:

  • Promote thicker, stronger strands from within

  • Support scalp and follicle health

  • Defend against oxidative stress and environmental damage

  • Bridge nutritional gaps that can contribute to thinning

With consistent use, N°5 helps restore balance and resilience — promoting hair that looks fuller, shinier, and healthier at any age.
