I hate my flat hair & always hide it in a bun – I tested out 5 volumising products to see which buy would give me oomph
BLEACHING, heat tools and harsh medicine to help my arthritis that ultimately caused a big chunk of my hair to fall out - my tresses have been through it all. As I'm fast-approaching the big 3-0 next year, my thin mane is a far cry from the real-life Rapunzel locks it once was. 7 Like for millions of beauty buffs, the thinning hair has shattered my confidence - and so, I've resorted to sporting the on-trend slick back bun most days. But while the hairstyle, loved by Molly-Mae and model Bella Hadid, is a godsend at the gym, it also causes traction alopecia. The condition is a form of hair loss caused by strain on the follicles - like when you scrape back your tresses. It can make your precious locks fall out in large chunks, causing bald patches. Of course, one solution is to jet off to Turkey for a hair transplant - which, at around £2,300, would be a huge blow to my already dire bank balance. However, the high street is also jam-packed with hundreds of products that promise to give your hair that oomph - but do any of them actually work? Desperate to give my thinning and patchy hairline a breather from the tight bun, I decided to put five volumising products to test. From shampoos to a mousse, here are the ones that gave me a salon-worthy blowout - and the ones that left me with a sticky mane. got2b Hair Volume Styling Powder, £5.65 7 When it comes to giving your hair that oomph, many tend to assume it starts with a shampoo - but there are plenty of other buys I've heard rave reviews about, such as this got2b Hair Volume Styling Powder. Online, the product has bold claims of providing ''instant volume and root boost'' - something my poor tresses need desperately. The wallet-friendly buy, to be used after drying your locks, is also vegan - which is a win for me. But despite being lightweight, I somehow felt my freshly-washed hair felt sticky - and ultimately, was so weighed down, I resorted to using a claw clip to hide the pretty flat and lacklustre hairdo. Oomph rating: 1/5 Wella Shockwaves Volumising Hair Mousse, £3 7 UV protection, humidity resistance and protection from heat? Wella Shockwaves Volumising Hair Mousse certainly claims to do it all. With an impressive 4.5-star rating and dozens of rave reviews online, it's safe to say I had high hopes for this little number that's going for just £3 at Boots. And while I was hesitant the white mousse would make my hair feel sticky, there was no need to worry - however, a little does go a long way. The formula is super lightweight when applied and made my hair look the fullest it ever has - as if I was ready to walk down the Victoria Secret runway with Gigi Hadid and Adriana Lima. Although the curls did look a bit dry, they were voluminous and overall gorgeous - I've never heard this many compliments in my life. Oomph rating: 5/5 Pantene Miracles Lift & Volume Shampoo, £3 7 As I'm about to fork out a mini mortgage to rent a studio, keeping my expenses as low as possible is a must - and this Pantene Miracles Lift & Volume Shampoo is perfect to stay on top of my budget. Currently slashed to just £3 at Boots, the mega 400ml shampoo is enriched with biotin and antioxidants, while the gentle formula also helped my flat hair appear visibly thicker and fuller in just one use. What's more, the shampoo is also perfect for everyday use - which may sound like a crime to many but is a must for a gym bunny like me. While it didn't give me the same volume as the mousse, the cheap buy is one of the best smelling haircare finds in this lot. Oomph rating: 4/5 4 reasons your hair is thinning From fixing it to faking it, your guide to healthier, thicker hair from Trichologist Anabel Kingsley. 'Hair thins naturally as we get older because like our skin and muscles, the hair ages and changes,' Anabel Kingsley, trichologist at Philip Kinglsey explains. It can also be because of genetics, made worse by other health factors like menopause or thyroid disorders. 'Hair follicles very gradually shrink and produce finer and shorter strands with each passing hair growth cycle,' she adds. But while we can't help things like genetics or the ageing process, we can do something about some of the other causes of hair thinning. Here are four, fixable ones you need to know about. 1. Your hormones are raging 'Leading up to and during your period, the scalp may become oilier, which may trigger flaking and itching if you are predisposed to dandruff - and leaving an irritated scalp untreated can lead to hair loss,' says Anabel. Loss of hair post-pregnancy is very common too; 'After giving birth or stopping breast-feeding, oestrogen levels drop and return to normal,' Anabel explains. 'This can cause all the hairs retained during pregnancy to shed at once (usually six-12 weeks later), known as postpartum hair loss.' Don't panic, this is only temporary, but experts recommend you start taking daily hair supplements to support the hair's growth. 2. Your hair can't take the heat 'Heat drains moisture from within the hair shaft and because our hair's elasticity and strength is largely reliant on its water content, hair can become dry, brittle and prone to breakage,' Anabel explains. To prevent damage in the future, Anabel advises using a low setting on your heat styler, straightening only once a week and switching off your blow-dryer when your hair is just dry, as 'using heat on completely dry hair will evaporate water from the hair shaft'. 3. You're stressed 'Hair is non-essential to physical survival so it will always be the first part of you to suffer when something is off-kilter,' Anabel says. Stress affects the scalp which can have a negative impact on the eventual health and growth of the hair. 'Stress spikes cortisol levels which in turn increases oil production,' adds Anabel. 'Cortisol, a stress hormone, disrupts the skin's barrier function and triggers skin irritation which is why your scalp gets itchy and flaky when you are going through a stressful period.' 4. You're eating the wrong food 'Diet is incredibly important to hair health,' says Anabel. 'Being a non-essential tissue, hair is the last part of us to benefit from nutrients we ingest and the first to be withheld from them.' Avoid mercury-rich fish like tuna and also full-fat dairy like cheese if you suffer from dandruff. 'This can trigger flaking and itching which can then lead to hair thinning,' she says. MONDAY Haircare Volume Shampoo, £5 7 It's priced at £5 and comes in a lovely peach bottle - it's easy to see why MONDAY Haircare VOLUME Shampoo has become a major hit amongst shoppers. The VOLUME range was also named ''Best Shampoo and Conditioner for Fine Hair'' in the 2021 Cosmo Holy Grail Beauty Awards. After popping in for the shower, I was pleasantly surprised by how cleansed my short tresses felt using the vegan-friendly shampoo. With a focus on natural ingredients, this affordable buy also contains stimulating Ginger Root Extract, and Vitamin E to support a healthy scalp and hair growth - which I'm yet to give my verdict on as I haven't used it frequently enough. There was plenty of volume - which lasted not just for a whole day of working and sweating on the tube but also a cheeky date night. Oomph rating: 5/5 Q+A Volumising Shampoo, £8.95 7 Good hair days just got a whole lot better thanks to Q+A. After over three years in the making, Q+A recently launched its first-ever haircare range - and it dropped earlier this month at Holland & Barrett and The epic collection boasts buys for clarifying your tresses, defining your curls, strengthening the locks, as well as helping flat hair appear fuller - and I was one of the first ones to test it out. Designed to help hair look fuller, thicker, and boost body and bounce, the shampoo worked miracles for my limp hair. While this range is definitely the most expensive in the lot, it's also the one I enjoyed the most - especially as I wasn't walking around with wild frizz.

British mother revealed to have died of food poisoning in Turkey
A British mother who tragically died on holiday in Turkey was found to have had lost her life due to food poisoning. Beth Martin, 28, from Portsmouth, became 'delirious' on the first day of the trip and was placed in critical care. She had been on holiday with her husband Luke and two children, aged eight and five but died around a day after she was taken into hospital on April 28, it was reported by the Daily Mail. Her family claimed they were not informed about the serious nature of her condition and Turkish authorities had accused Luke of 'poisoning' his wife. It emerged following a UK autopsy that Mrs Martin's heart had been removed following her death although no permission had been sought from her family, according to a family fundraiser. A new report has indicated that the mother had died due to food poisoning, according to local media outlet Sozcu and found no evidence she died from 'traumatic effects'. Findings, released by the Forensic Medicine Institution, said: 'It has been concluded that Martin's death occurred as a result of food poisoning and its complications.' It reportedly added the full examination of Beth's heart had been completed. 'It broke me' Her devastated husband Luke previously said he has suffered the 'deepest level of trauma' following his wife's death and added that telling his children they would never see their mother again 'broke him'. 'Two weeks ago me, my wife and two kids set out for a family holiday to Turkey. Only three of us made it back,' Luke wrote on social media on May 11. 'I lost my wife, my children lost their mum, we lost the biggest piece of the puzzle that was our family. 'It has been the worst and most traumatic week of my entire life, and to top it off. I had to break the news to my babies that their mum isn't coming home, it broke me.' Mrs Martin started to feel unwell after the family touched down at the airport in Turkey on Sunday, April 27, leading her husband to call for an ambulance the following day. She was taken to a 'destitute' hospital where she was quickly transferred into intensive care. It was claimed on a GoFundMe page, Mr Martin was 'banned' from seeing his wife and had not been updated on her condition as she was being cared for in hospital. Doctors raised concerns at the time about Mrs Martin's heart but she died the day after being taken into hospital. The family alleged they were made to carry her body in a bag throughout the hospital and claimed they were told they would have to wait more than a fortnight to repatriate her body so Luke 'paid thousands' for her to be flown home alongside him on the same flight.
