When it comes to my hair care routine, I’m pretty lazy. I just use shampoo and conditioner on a daily basis, and when I’m feeling a bit fancy, I’ll spritz a leave-in conditioner afterward. But that’s as far as I’ll go.
Lately, however, I’ve noticed a bit more hair-shedding in the shower and sparser areas near my temples. Whether it’s due to getting older or being a mom (or both), I’ve been searching for a low-maintenance solution to add thickness back to my strands—and this Briogeo Destined for Density Shampoo might be it.

The Briogeo Destined for Density Shampoo is packed with hair-enhancing ingredients, including caffeine: A stimulant that provides antioxidant protection and increases blood flow to the scalp. This can lead to “an increase of growth factors and nutrients being recruited to the hair follicle,” Gary Linkov, MD, a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon and hair-restoration expert, previously told InStyle.
Another star ingredient? Zinc, which cleanses the scalp to create a healthy environment and “is a vital mineral for the structural integrity of hair,” Mamina Turegano, MD, FAAD, a triple board-certified dermatologist, previously told InStyle.
While I have yet to try this formula myself, InStyle editors named it one of the best shampoos for thinning hair, with one tester saying that it added volume, smoothness, and shine to their fine, dry hair. Amazon shoppers also agree with one fan noting that “after one use, I can tell a difference in my hair length,” while another who once “struggled with thin hair” said that after “two washes,” their hair is “thick, full, and bouncy.” A final fan with “hair-shedding and volume loss” called it a “game-changer,” not only having noticed “new hair growth,” but “shiny and smooth” strands as well.
