Woman shares hair transformation using supplements that cost her 49p a day
Hair shedding is normal and many hair and scalp specialists have pointed out that we lose about 100 strands of hair a day, but if you notice large clumps are falling out on wash day, then it's best to tackle hair thinning issues as early as possible. Emma, who had a hair disaster that saw her tresses damaged from chemical treatments, has turned to Dr Vegan's Hair Saviour for help.
The practitioner-grade supplements transformed her hair within a month and brought her "healthy, happy hair again at 53 years old." Developed by nutritionists and packed with 14 key ingredients, the plant-based supplements are formulated to encourage stronger and healthier hair. They contain clinically tested components such as MSM, Biotin, Saw Palmetto, Zinc, Selenium, Silica, and the standout ingredient AnaGain.
A three-month supply is recommended for maximum results, which is now available for £52.50, down from £69.99 with the discount code SAVIOUR25, averaging at 58p per day - code only applies to new customers and excludes bundles. However, the most cost-effective method is through a rolling subscription, which offers an additional 15% savings, making the first three months at £44.62, or 49p a day.
Emma shared her thoughts on taking the supplement: "I had a hair disaster in 2020/21 when I decided to go blonde and I never thought I would ever get my hair back to a good condition," she said. "I started Hair Saviour at the end of January, and within a month, my hair felt different. Soft, shiny hair was making a return, my hairdresser couldn't believe how much it had grown between appointments. I am so thrilled to have healthy, happy hair again and at 53 years old."
Dr Vegan's Hair Saviour's standout ingredient, AnaGain, is derived from pea sprouts and contains phytonutrients, which have been shown to aid hair growth and promote fuller, thicker hair. A clinical trial of the ingredient demonstrated a 78% increase in the ratio of healthy hair follicles over three months.
Suitable for both men and women, these twice-daily capsules also enhance scalp health and root vitality, making them an excellent all-rounder. The formula is entirely vegan, cruelty-free, and devoid of synthetic additives, making them perfect for those wanting to nourish their hair without consuming anything unnecessary.
However, it's worth mentioning that individuals with underlying health issues should seek professional advice before use, reported the Manchester Evening News.
Hairburst, a UK-based supplement company, is gaining traction with its Strawberry & Blackcurrant Chewable Vitamins Pastilles aimed at boosting hair growth and strength, which include nutrients like collagen and biotin in their blend. Shoppers can get it at Boots at £11 instead of £22.
Another contender in the battle for lustrous locks is the Australian brand JSHealth Hair + Energy, priced at £24.99 for a month's supply, touting kelp, iodine, and zinc as key ingredients. The brand asserts that customers typically witness considerable improvements in hair thickness, less shedding, and new hair development within 8 to 12 weeks of consistent use of these supplements, though numerous reviewers have observed positive changes even more swiftly.
Lisa, another Dr Vegan customer, shared her experience, remarking: "I've only been taking it for five weeks and I can see a difference already. My hair is in much better condition, my nails have grown, my eyebrows have grown as have my eyelashes. I am so impressed."
Not only are women experiencing positive changes, but men also report benefits from taking the capsules, as James reported: "I was a bit sceptical at the start, but after three months, I really noticed an improvement in thickness and general appearance. Have been taking it for well over a year now and would definitely recommend."
Yet, outcomes vary, with a customer noting: "I've been using this product for well over six months now, and to be honest, I really can't see any improvement in the volume or thickness of my hair. Saying that my hairdresser has noticed a difference? But my hair still looks the same to me. I still have it coloured and perhaps this doesn't help. I'll continue to use it until the end of the year and if I still feel the same."
On the other hand, individuals such as Rebecca, grappling with autoimmune-related hair issues, have seen substantial benefits, sharing: "I have taken Hair Saviour for a month now, and my hair is already feeling smoother, sleeker, less frizzy, and I can go much longer between washes without it getting greasy. With autoimmune illnesses and related meds, my hair is usually fine, brittle and falling out - genuinely feel this isn't the case anymore. Can't praise it enough."
But supplements aren't the only answer to hair loss. Topical treatments that target hair loss and thinning are also readily available on the high street.
The Philip Kingsley Density Hair and Scalp Preserving Collection, worth £80, is currently discounted to £57.60 at LookFantastic. It includes scalp drops and a scalp foam containing organic pea sprout extract, similar to Dr Vegan, designed to visibly thicken strands and add a glossy shine.
For those looking for a plant-based addition to their hair care regimen, Dr Vegan's Hair Saviour might be the solution.

Tired Boots shoppers 'can't be without' £32 eye serum for 'saggy' lids slashed to £10
The L'Oréal Paris 2.5% Hyaluronic Acid and Caffeine Revitalift Filler Eye Serum has been reduced by 68% in the Boots £10 Tuesday sale, but shoppers need to be quick Boots £10 Tuesday is back, and just in time for payday, no less. This week, some of the deals are so good they've sold out before we even had a chance to write about them. But, there is one product that shoppers have been raving about that's seen a major price cut from £31.99 to £10, saving more than £20 on the RRP. Until 23.59pm tonight, shoppers can pick up the L'Oréal Paris 2.5% Hyaluronic Acid and Caffeine Revitalift Filler Eye Serum at 68% off, making it cheaper than Amazon where it's £15.60. The eye area is typically the first place to show signs of ageing and fatigue as the skin is ten times thinner and more sensitive. That means that stress, screen time, lack of sleep and pollution often take its toll, leading to dark circles and fine lines. The Revitalift Filler Eye serum has been specifically formulated for the unique eye area and is proven to visibly brighten dark circles and replump eye lines for younger looking eyes. Dermatologist approved, the fragrance-free formula is 'effective on all skin tones', and contains a mix of well-known skin-loving ingredients for effective results. The serum features both macro hyaluronic acid and a higher concentration of micro hyaluronic acid which penetrate deeper into the skin for maximum hydration, while caffeine and 4 per cent niacinamide target dark circles for a brighter complexion. The serum also stars a cooling triple bead applicator for gentle under-eye and eyelid massage, targeting puffiness and rejuvenating weary eyes. According to L'Oreal, it's suitable for use before bedtime or in the morning, claiming it 'quickly absorbs' and 'layers perfectly under makeup'. The affordable serum has been lauded by beauty enthusiasts for giving 'plumper' skin in just a few days. Elsewhere, the Charlotte Tilbury Cryo-Recovery Eye Serum contains IceAwake complex and caffeine, with a skin-cooling applicator tip for eyes that appear depuffed and smoothed. However, it is on the pricier side, coming in at £47. For a more affordable option, there's The Ordinary Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG 30ml for £8.40. This light-textured formula contains an extremely high 5% concentration of caffeine, supplemented with EGCG which can help reduce looks of puffiness and of dark circles in the eye contour. Beauty fans are so impressed with the product, they say they 'can't live without' it. One five-star reviewer said: "I use this eye serum with the rest on the revitalift range and it completes my routine wonderfully! My eyes certainly thank me for it! The wand makes application super easy and it feels refreshing and soothing when putting it on. After a few uses, the skin around my eyes is plumper, my dark circles have disappeared and I look so much more awake and ready for the day ahead. I can't be without this now!' A second raved: "Oh, I love this eye serum. Using it in the morning and my eyes feel so fresh. I usually have very tired eyes with saggy eye lids and puffy dark circles underneath my eyes, all of this kind of disappears within 30 minutes after using it. I specially like the applicator when I can massage the serum into my eye lids and under my eyes. It feels so refreshing. I highly recommend this. Also using it in the evening, just to refresh my eyes after a long day." But others have found the texture to be a little 'greasy' adding: 'I found this to be a bit to greasy, I think the first Time I used it, I use a bit too much, but even with cutting it down, I still found it greasy and hard to soak in the skin. I persevered with it and have found a slight difference to the wrinkles round my eyes and the puffiness has gone, so it does work.' 'Bought this while it was on offer... really blown away!' wrote a fourth. 'Noticed an immediate tightening around the eye area and after two weeks of using twice a day the lines are visibly reduced around my eyes." Shoppers can pick up the L'Oréal Paris 2.5% Hyaluronic Acid and Caffeine Revitalift Filler Eye Serum for £10 today.

Boots drops £28 'miracle' face cream with 'noticeable results' to £10
People have felt their skin 'looks younger' and some claimed that imperfections 'totally disappeared' with this product Beauty shoppers are taking advantage of a deal on a face cream that offers people the chance to "look younger" within weeks. It's usually priced at almost £30, but a flash deal has made this "miracle" pot just £10. Boots has slashed the price of the No7 Protect & Perfect Intense ADVANCED Day Cream from £27.95 down to £10 during the weekly Tuesday flash sale, where dozens of items are reduced to just £10. The cream, infused with SPF15, offers "advanced protection and 24 hours of hydration for visibly younger looking skin", according to the Boots website. It goes on to claim that skin will look "instantly more radiant" after applying, with continued use leading to more results. Boots claim that, after two weeks, skin should "look younger" and a month of use will leave fine lines and wrinkles "visibly reduced." The website adds: "Rest assured the formulation of our advanced skincare products you have come to love remains the same giving you noticeable age-defying results." The Boots cream is said to be suitable for sensitive skin, and ingredients include hyaluronic acid that helps skin stretch and flex, reducing skin wrinkles and lines. There are similar moisturising day creams available for people looking for an alternative, such as Dr H Hyaluronic Acid Anti-Ageing Day Moisturiser (Debenhams, £18.75, down from £220) and L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Filler SPF 50 Day Cream (Superdrug, £14.99, down from £29.99), but No7 fans are taking advantage of this deal to stock up on their supplies. The cream has an overall rating online of 4.2 stars out of 5, with 500 different reviews from Boots shoppers. Lots of people who had bought and used the cream had glowing verdicts of the product, which some have used for years. One said: "I love this cream. It absorbs into your skin quickly and makes your skin feel very smooth." Another added: "I have been using this for a few years, and it suits my skin. It gives a lovely luminous look. I have lots of comments on how good my skin looks so highly recommend it for sensitive skin." A third wrote: "I used to have dry flaky patches on my face which have totally disappeared since using this, my skin is soft, even, and feels firmer. My uneven skin tone looks more even, and my fine lines are visibly reduced. Can't rate it highly enough, to me, it's a miracle product!" There were a few critics, though, as some felt the quality didn't match up to their expectations. Some also found that it caused reactions on their skin, which is why Boots suggests people test with a small patch on their skin to check suitability before applying fully. One said: "Got this as a present. Don't like it as it was very greasy on my skin and felt more like a sunscreen. Might be better if you have very dry skin." And, one more claimed: "The adverts on tv made me want to buy this and because it stated suitable for sensitive skin, I was sure it would be my new favourite. Unfortunately it made my face sting and my skin was so red, I looked sunburned!" However, someone else put: "I find this cream gives my skin a lovely glow after use but never sticky feel. Slightly fragranced but nothing off putting. Long lasting too." And, a fifth shared: "Have been using this cream for a few months, it's brilliant. You only need a small amount and your skin feels fresh and hydrated."

Sale sees Garnier Ultimate Blends trio that 'makes hair thick in 2 weeks' drop to £10
'Thanks to this combination, it's now thicker and fuller after using for two weeks' If your hair is feeling a little limp, frazzled or just generally lacklustre after a summer of sun, heat and heat styling, you're not alone– but this under £10 bundle from Garnier might just be the fix your damaged ends are crying out for. Boots has just slashed the price of the Garnier Ultimate Blends Nourish & Smooth Banana Haircare Bundle to £10 (down from £22) – and shoppers are raving about it. You get the full-size 350ml shampoo, conditioner and 400ml 3-in-1 hair mask for less than the price of a takeaway, and fans say it's helped them achieve noticeably thicker, healthier hair in as little as two weeks. Designed for dry, frizzy or damaged hair, the trio uses plant-based ingredients and a creamy banana scent that smells good enough to eat. It's silicone-free too, so ideal if you're looking to repair your hair without weighing it down or leaving it feeling product laden. With a fair few glowing reviews on the Boots site alone, the set has earned an impressive 4.5-star average, and the word 'thicker' pops up in a lot of them. One happy customer wrote: "I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this product. Used it for 10 days straight every day on holidays, came back and everyone thought I had gotten extensions!!" Another said: "My hair was very dry and overprocessed. Thanks to this combination, it's now thicker and fuller after two weeks of use." "Bought this bundle on the £10 Tuesday offer - amazing value!! Actually bought it for my daughter, who is an avid fan & consistent user of this range. Product smells lovely & leaves hair feeling, looking & smelling amazing!" penned a third. And they're not wrong – the scent is often described as 'like a smoothie for your hair', thanks to the banana extract. But it's not just about the smell alone (though it's a good enough reason to hand over your tenner). The real magic comes from the formula, which blends coconut oil and shea butter for deep nourishment, plus plant keratin to help strengthen strands from root to tip. It's worth noting that the mask can be used three different ways: as a rinse-out conditioner, a leave-in treatment, or a deep mask if you've got time for a bit of extra self-care. One reviewer even said it brought their over-bleached ends 'back from the dead' after one overnight treatment. While the overwhelming feedback is very positive for the banana bundle, one shopper on Lookfantastic, where the mask is priced at £4.50 in the summer sale, offers a different perspective: "I have 3b/3c hair and this is a nice mask. It has a good slip but it's not hydrating enough for my hair. I wouldn't use it as a leave in for this reason." At full price, the trio is already a decent value, but right now it's part of a limited-time Boots bundle deal that knocks the price down to £10 for all three full-size products (offering a £12 saving). Basically, you're buying the mask (£9 on its own) and getting the shampoo and conditioner for £1. If you're not quite convinced, or like the idea of the results but not the banana smell, Olaplex is also running a good offer on some of its repairing hair favourites. The Strong Start Hair Kit was £28 but is now £21, and gives you a travel-sized selection of five wash and styling products.
