9. Thappink 5% Minoxidil Biotin

Both Kingsley and Dr. Rapaport rave about Minoxidil being the gold standard for hair growth, and this topical treatment contains biotin too. “For female pattern hair loss/thinning, I recommend using daily topical drops containing minoxidil,” says Kingsley. “Minoxidil is the only FDA-approved topical treatment for female pattern hair loss, and it is very effective.” This ultra-affordable formula doesn’t just have the approval of experts—it has thousands of five-star reviews. Besides Minoxidil, it contains nourishing ingredients like vitamin E and squalane as well as clarifying rosemary. Just make sure that you don’t wash your hair for at least four hours after applying it.

  • Pros: Affordable; strong ingredients list, thousands of five-star reviews
  • Cons: Can leave hair feeling greasy.

 

10. Ranavat Mighty Majesty

Infused with jasmine, alma, and sunflower oil, Ranavat’s hair serum is made with Ayurvedic-based ingredients that also happen to smell heavenly. The brand is inspired by ancient Indian royalty, so chances are that this is the most luxe hair-growth product out there. “I had tons of stress-related hair loss while I was in grad school, to the point at which I had literal chunks of hair falling out of the back of my head,” says contributor Neha Tandon. “I massaged this into my scalp one or two times a week and started noticing new hair growth after just a month. Years later, my hair has never been thicker or fuller than it is today.” The serum has more of a thick, oil formula, so just note that you’ll want to wear this overnight or save the treatment for a day when you’re going for a sleek bun look.

  • Pros: Good floral scent, cruelty-free formula; helps with frizz.
  • Cons: Pricey for the size
