Hair today… and tomorrow! Fuller follicles in weeks

Okay, I admit it, my hair is thinning somewhat. My maternal grandparents both had thinning hair – but that was in their late 60s. I’m only… well, not in my 60s, and already I’m seeing the signs of a receding hairline up the front, and a bit of a bold patch up the back.

Anyhoo, I was at my hairdressers recently when I came across a collection of shiny silver and blue boxes branded cerafill (postmodern lowercase lettering seemingly imperative). The packaging alone looked like serious stuff, so I questioned my hairstylist about it.

As it turns out, cerafill is a range of products created in the labs of trusted haircare brand Redken, and now being used by customers to achieve thicker, fuller hair – instantly. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing so I invested in the full kit to test it. The kit consisted of a stimulating shampoo and conditioner, re-densifying treatment, and something called ‘hair diameter thickening treatment’. That last one, I was told, would actually be working on each strand of hair to instantly plump and increase follicle thickness by up to 9%. Goodness gracious; Einstein wouldn’t have believed it!

Anyways, I am now three weeks into my regime of shampooing, conditioning, simple towel-drying, and then applying the treatments, and the results are phenomenal. It’s like my hair has grown, yes, thicker and fuller within three weeks.

There’s a reason for this apparent magic. First of all, the cerafill Retaliate Shampoo and Conditioner are infused with menthol and ginger ingredients – both of which help stimulate, invigorate, cleanse and strengthen the hair – all at once. Following up this basic haircare procedure daily with the re-densifying treatment promotes up to 1,700 new and denser follicles in a matter of months. Add to this the boosting effect of the Dense FX thickening treatment – et voila – the textured effect is even more impressive!

I kid you not, if someone had told me that I’d have fuller looking hair in a matter of weeks simply by adding a couple of new products to my grooming regime, I’d have thought they were kidding. Now I’m wanting a lifetime supply of this very good stuff.  Antonino Tati
