I struggled to grow my hair until a 88p hack made it super long in just one month – I can't believe it

The Sun2 days ago

A WOMAN who struggled to make her hair grow for two years revealed that she was able to make her locks long and luscious thanks to the help of an 88p Temu buy.
Hannah Beau revealed that after using the budget buy, her hair grew super long, in just one month.

Taking to TikTok, the brunette beauty raved about her hair transformation.
"I've accidentally come across the best product for hair growth," she said.
"I'm lowkey p**ssed I didn't know about this two years ago."
Hannah, who said she was "baffled" by the transformation, showed viewers a picture of her shoulder length hair in January.
She then showed a snap of it three months later, not looking much longer.
"And this is today", she said, sharing a picture of her locks tumbling down her back.
Hannah revealed that there was just one month between the second and third pictures.
Sharing her secret, she explained that there were only two things that she had changed about her hair care routine.
The first was using a scalp brush, which you can pick up from from Temu for as little as 88p.
Scalp massaging increases blood flow to the scalp, which can make hair grow faster and healthier, and increase hair thickness.
My hair is so shiny you can see your reflection in it - it's all thanks to an 84p product that lasts up to 10 washes
The second thing she started using was a scalp oil from Kitsch, priced at £20.
"It's been doing a bloody good job," she said.
"I'll have waist length hair by Christmas".
The TikToker also said she thought the warmer weather may have helped her hair to grow.
Hair re-growth FAQs
Anabel Kingsley, Consultant Trichologist and Brand President at Philip Kingsley spoke exclusively to Fabulous.
How long does it take for hair to grow back?
Hair grows, on average, half an inch a month. You cannot speed this up.
Do rosemary oil and scalp massages work?
Oils do not promote hair growth. In terms of rosemary oil, the current trend stems from one small study carried out on 50 men in 2015. No women were involved, and the study compared the effects of 2 per cent minoxidil to Rosemary oil. 2 per cent minoxidil doesn't do much for
male pattern hair loss anyway, so the results were not very impressive. Oils do serve a purpose in conditioning hair treatments though. They help add shine and smooth the hair cuticle to lock-in moisture and improve combability. Scalp massages alone won't cure hair loss, but it can help relax you, aid in lymphatic drainage, exfoliate and help topicals penetrate.
Are there any products or foods/vitamins you recommend someone using or eating to help with hair regrowth?
To support healthy hair regrowth, if you are experiencing hair thinning we'd recommend our Density Preserving Scalp Drops clinically proven to help slow hair loss with continued daily use within three months.
Telogen effluvium (hair shedding) due to nutritional deficiencies can often be simply treated with changes to your diet, and nutritional supplements such as our specially formulated Density Healthy Hair Complex and Density Amino Acid Booster.
Iron and Ferritin (stored iron) in red meat, dried apricots and dark, leafy greens. Vitamin B12 in animal products and fortified plant-based foods. Protein from oily fish, lean meat, cottage cheese, tofu, nuts, chickpeas, and beans.
However, there may be an underlying cause for their hair loss and rather than this being masked by using an off-the-shelf product, they should be encouraged to seek the advice of a specialist such as a Trichologist.
Hair grows faster in the summer due to a variety of reasons, such as increased blood circulation due to warmer temperatures and increased vitamin D production.
Hannah's (@hannahbeauc) video has likely left many people impressed, as it has racked up over 873,000 views on the video sharing platform.
TikTok users raced to the video's comments section to share their thoughts.
One person said: "Scalp massagers deffo help because you're stimulating your hair follicles."
A second person said: "Wow! I think it's because you're stimulating your scalp."
A third person said: "Your hair journey has been so beautiful, I'm so happy for you!"

Robbie Williams, Murrayfield Stadium, review: The most spectacular end-of-the-pier show ever seen

'Allow me to reintroduce myself!' yelled the squat, muscular, tattooed, silver haired 51-year-old, standing on a runway in the centre of the vast Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh, Scotland, a tiny, isolated figure in the midst of a 70,000 strong crowd. 'My name is ROBBIE! F______! WILLIAMS!' And the crowd roared back with a gusty, noisy delight to match the star's own. He's back, folks. To be fair, I am not sure how far he ever really went away, but Britain's self-proclaimed 'King of Entertainment' is on the march, determined to reclaim his crown. Oasis mania is about to be unleashed once more in the UK, as the biggest band in Britpop returns to the stage next month. Cheekily stealing their thunder, they are being preceded around Britain's stadiums by the biggest British hitmaker of the 1990s and 2000s in a show mischievously entitled Britpop, filled with buzzing guitars and mighty singalongs. Mind you, that's where any resemblance to the fiercely dour and belligerently stationary Oasis ends. Because Williams throws everything he's got at his audience – special effects, jokes, choreography, stunts and, mainly, himself – in a relentless, almost desperate desire to please. His spectacular show opened with a gasp-inducing high dive from a giant winged platform suspended above the stage and ended two hours later with fans singing the choruses of Williams's beloved ballad Angels louder than the giant PA, whilst the star of the occasion looked on beaming with emotional delight. I am not sure who was more moved by Williams's relentless antics – the woman named Debbie from Dundee openly weeping as Williams clambered into the crowd to serenade her with a version of She's The One, or Williams himself as he basked in the glow of love and acceptance. A neurotic neediness is at the heart of Williams's appeal but is crucially wrapped up in songs with meaningful lyrics, flowing melodies, snappy hooks and huge choruses that the audience seem even more eager to sing than the performer. Indeed, it is not really a criticism, but Williams talks as much as he sings, frequently interrupting his own emotional performances with silly jokes and overexcited chatter. 'I'm s_______ hits all over the place!' he shouts in the middle of an otherwise gorgeous A Love Supreme and makes a lewd penis joke during his most vulnerable anthem Come Undone. A Robbie Williams show is a lot to take in. It's an end of the pier cabaret routine staged with the firepower of a Hollywood blockbuster; a cheesy pop extravaganza infused with darkly witty postmodern irony; an exposed bundle of raw human neuroses transposed into monster pop anthems interlaced with old fashioned showbiz comedy patter and interrupted by scatological stream of consciousness babble. He makes unscripted comments about age ('I'm 51,' he repeatedly shouted in self-amazement), anxiety ('I've been s_______ myself for weeks, old feelings from Take That, PTSD'), his family ('my mum has dementia, and my dad has Parkinson's, I feel like I'm in sniper's alley'), and sings the showbiz standard My Way in a pink suit and boa with all the feeling of a man who can't quite believe he's made it this far. He's 51, you know. There is a theme to proceedings, roughly hovering around the question of 'what is entertainment?'. Williams offers himself as the answer to his own question, to which the crowd offer noisy validation. From the riotous bombast of Let Me Entertain You to the vulnerability of anthemic ballad Feel, Williams arrived fully armed with the singalong hits that his massive audience have already taken to heart. In his natural element on stage, he put them across with a combination of ridiculous humour, raw humanity and powerful musicality that proved irresistible. We let him entertain us. I suspect from his gurning delight that the experience was mutual.

Duke of Sussex ‘asked Diana's brother if he should change his family name to Spencer'

Prince Harry asked Princess Diana's brother about changing his family name to Spencer, according to reports. During a rare visit to Britain, Prince Harry is said to have sought advice from his uncle Earl Spencer, about whether to assume his mother's surname. It would have meant dropping his current family name, Mountbatten-Windsor, which is used by his children, Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, three. The Duke, 40, was advised against the move by the Earl, 61, because of the legal hurdles, according to the Mail on Sunday. 'They had a very amicable conversation and Spencer advised him against taking such a step', a friend of the Duke told the newspaper. Mountbatten-Windsor is the surname available to descendants of the late Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip. It combines the British Royal family's House name of Windsor and Prince Philip's adopted surname of Mountbatten. The Duke's apparent desire to abandon the name speaks to the growing rift with his family. An interview with the BBC last month, in which he made a series of comments about the Royal family, is understood to have deepened the divide between Buckingham Palace and the Duke and his wife, Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex. On their birth certificates, the couple's children are Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor and Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor. However, it was revealed last year, they had started using 'Sussex' as the official surname for their children. The Royal family name of Windsor was confirmed by Queen Elizabeth II following her accession to the throne in 1952. But in 1960, the late Queen and then Duke of Edinburgh elected for their direct descendants to carry the name Mountbatten-Windsor. This meant that when the Queen's children needed to declare a surname, it would be Mountbatten-Windsor. Mountbatten-Windsor first appeared on an official document on Nov 14 1973 upon the marriage of the Princess Royal and Captain Mark Phillips.

'Transformational' new drug could stop breast cancer tumours before they grow, trial finds

A new drug could stop some breast cancer tumours from using hormones to grow, a trial has found. Results from the Serena-6 trial, carried out with the Institute of Cancer Research in London, suggest that using camizestrant could help patients stay well longer and delay the need for chemotherapy. According to Cancer Research UK, the drug works by blocking oestrogen from getting into the breast cancer cell, which researchers hope can then stop or slow the growth of cancer. Breast cancer patients given the drug in the trial reduced their chances of the disease progressing by 52% compared to standard therapies. Professor Kristian Helin, chief executive of the Institute of Cancer Research, said the results "represent more than a clinical milestone, they represent a transformational shift in how we approach precision medicine". Co-principal investigator Professor Nick Turner also called the development of the drug "a pivotal moment in breast cancer care". 1:48 The study, funded by AstraZeneca, looked at patients with hormone-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer - about 70% of cases. More than 3,000 patients from 23 countries took part in phase three of the trial, which saw doctors use blood tests to detect changes in the cancer's DNA to see which treatments were ineffective. For those taking camizestrant, their cancer stabilised for around 16 months on average, compared with about nine months for other treatments. However, 1% of patients taking the new drug stopped taking it because of side effects. Further results from the Serena-6 trial will be presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology annual meeting in Chicago on Sunday. Cancer Research UK reports that breast cancer is the most common type of the disease, with around 56,400 women and around 390 men diagnosed in the UK each year. The trial was also the first worldwide study to show that using blood tests to find early signs of cancer resistance to treatment helps patients. Dr Catherine Elliott, director of research at Cancer Research UK, praised the breakthrough as a "clear example of how blood tests are starting to transform cancer treatment". "By tracking tiny traces of tumour DNA in the blood, researchers were able to spot early signs of treatment resistance and switch therapies before cancer had a chance to grow," she added. "It shows how circulating tumour DNA, or ctDNA, could help doctors make smarter, more timely treatment decisions. "This approach could become an important part of how we personalise care for people with advanced breast cancer."
