My hair was so thin I had to wear wigs, but thanks to a £9 shampoo, my locks have grown thick and long
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A BUDGET-FRIENDLY buy can help to transform your locks, leaving them looking thicker than ever. This haircare product will nourish your roots, boosting growth and promoting a natural moisture balance. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 A Boots shopper heaped on the praise for a budget-friendly shampoo that transformed her locks (stock image) Credit: Getty One woman revealed the shampoo she used to level up her locks, calling it "the best". "I have a hair condition, which means I wore wigs," she explained. "Since using this shampoo, my hair grew so well and quite quick and now I don't use wigs anymore, couldn't be more happier." She added that she is "really happy with this shampoo". Boots shoppers can pick up the product, a 300ml bottle of Nature Spell Growth Complex Shampoo, for just £8.49. It is described as "a harmonious blend of Ayurvedic wisdom and modern hair care innovation". This product is designed to nurture your hair into "longer, stronger, and healthier" locks. Nature Spell infused the mixture with potent Ayurvedic herbs including Ashwagandha, Bhringraj, and Amla. According to the brand, the shampoo "not only helps stimulate healthy hair growth but also fortifies your hair from root to tip". The unique formulation is enriched with our exclusive root-growth complex that works to rejuvenate and strengthen hair. I'm a beauty fan but save money in Boots by switching to six bargain buys - the 75p shampoo and conditioner is a must With a sulphate-free formula, this product ensures your hair retains its natural moisture balance, promoting healthier, shinier, and more resilient strands. Manufacturers recommend applying a generous amount of the product to wet hair. Massage it into your scalp and through the lengths of your hair to create a rich lather. Rinse thoroughly and for best results, follow up with Nature Spell's conditioner to lock in moisture and nutrients. The shampoo is suitable for all hair types. 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. Other customers shared their experiences with the product in the Boots review section. "I like it, [it has] pleasant, non-chemical scent, does not strip hair nor make it greasy," wrote one shopper. "This shampoo is the best I've ever used. My hairline has changed for the better! It's also probably the cheapest I've used. Great product!" said another buyer. "I was delighted to find this in Boots at a very reasonable price so bought the shampoo and conditioner. Smells lovely, lathers well, I will definitely buy this again," commented a third person. "Great shampoo, very good [for] sensitive scalps, leaves hair clean and healthy-feeling without weighing it down," said another Boots customer.

High street retailer with 263 stores to shut shop in weeks – and it's launched HUGE closing down sale
It's not the only store closing this month SHUTTERS DOWN High street retailer with 263 stores to shut shop in weeks – and it's launched HUGE closing down sale Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A MAJOR high street name is pulling the plug on one of its stores in just two weeks. It's already slashing prices by up to 70% to clear the shelves. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Mountain Warehouse has confirmed the closure of its London Street branch Credit: Alamy Outdoor clothing and gear giant Mountain Warehouse has confirmed its Norwich branch on London Street will shut for good, marking the end of over a year of speculation surrounding its future. The store said its last day of trading will be on June 15, meaning shoppers have just under two weeks to visit the shop. The writing has reportedly been on the wall since October last year, when 'Closing Down' signs first appeared in the windows. But months dragged on with no firm date in sight until now. Shoppers can now cash in on huge savings as the store kicks off a massive clearance sale ahead of the final day of trading. Any leftover stock will be sent to other stores, including the nearby Haymarket branch, which is staying open. The closure comes almost two years after Mountain Warehouse opened the much larger Haymarket site, just one street away. At the time, bosses insisted both would continue trading, but locals say they always expected the smaller shop to get the axe. Posting on Facebook, one Norwich shopper said: 'It was only a matter of time – you can't have two stores that close together and expect them both to survive.' Another added: 'Sad to see it go, but I guess Haymarket makes more sense. Still going to miss it.' Popular retailer to RETURN 13 years after collapsing into administration and shutting 236 stores It's not the only Mountain Warehouse site to shut its doors. Previously the retailer closed stores in Isle of Wight, Gainsborough, Basingstoke and Swindon. The news comes as Britain's high streets face another wave of store shutdowns, with several big-name chains reviewing their property portfolios. Retailers have been hammered by rising rent, energy bills, and staffing costs, especially after government Budget changes hiked employer National Insurance contributions. With footfall down in many city centres, brands are being forced to rethink expansion plans, trim their store counts, or shift focus to retail parks and online. Here is a full list of the shops we know are shutting in June 2025. They include, but aren't limited to, The Original Factory Shop, Poundland, and The Works. However, store closures don't always mean doom and gloom. Businesses often shut one branch in favour of another nearby that's pulling in more trade, which is exactly what appears to have happened in Norwich. Mountain Warehouse has been approached for comment.
