My hair started thinning after 40, and I spent almost two years and an embarrassing amount of money trying to grow it back. This is everything I actually tried for my thinning hair, what genuinely worked, what was a gorgeous waste of money, and the exact four-step plan I'd use if I had to start all over.

Things I Mentioned: Topical minoxidil (the one I use) Nutrafol (the hair-growth supplement I take) My hair regrowth peptide serum with Capixyl™ My multi-peptide hair-density serum (budget option) The scalp oil I love (with rosemary) Air dry cream that leaves my hair shiny without the heat Ketoconazole shampoo The laser cap I landed on My silk bonnet My boar-bristle brush Budget brush option I love The scalp massager I use with my minoxidil My clip-in extensions made specifically for thinning hair
This one is for every woman watching her part get wider and getting told to just accept it. I'm a skincare founder and a Certified Clinical Nutritionist, and I spent almost two years and a stupid amount of money figuring out what actually regrows hair after 40 and what is a complete waste. First, I get into why your hair is really thinning after 40, because hair loss is not one problem with one fix, plus the one question that saves you the most money before you buy a single thing. Then I walk through everything I actually tried, from the topical that made me shed even more before it worked, to PRP, microneedling, red light, ketoconazole, rosemary oil, and the supplements that earn their spot versus the ones that are a scam. I get honest about biotin, the shed that actually means it is working, what a good hair-growth serum needs on the label, and the one gadget I have zero proof does anything and refuse to stop using. And I close on the part most women will not say out loud, why losing your hair after 40 hits so much deeper than just hair, and why you are allowed to fight to get it back.

Under-eye filler was the wrong fix for almost everything I was actually trying to fix, and I found that out after years and a stupid amount of money spent on my own face. What most people call under-eye aging is really five completely different problems, hollowing, darkness, crepey skin, fine lines, and true bags, and filler is only built for one of them. This is exactly what I do instead now, and how to figure out which under-eye problem is actually yours before you spend a dollar. Things I Mentioned: Rewritten Show The Face Up serum My eye retinol My peptide eye cream My at-home radiofrequency device
If I had to start over at 40, knowing everything I know now after spending $1.3 million on beauty, these are the ten things I'd do first, in the order that actually works. This is the anti-aging roadmap for women over 40 I wish someone had handed me, and no, Botox isn't one of them.
