Noticing changes in your hairline? Whether due to natural ageing or other factors, a receding hairline can change how you feel about your appearance. While there’s no one-size-fits-all solution, there are a variety of ways to create the appearance of fuller hair — temporarily or more long-term.
1. Style Smart
Adding texture through light styling products like matte clays or sea salt spray can help give hair more lift and shape. Avoid slicked-back styles or heavy gels, as they can expose the hairline more clearly. Instead, opt for styles that bring volume to the front and crown, giving the illusion of density.
2. Explore Prescription Options
Prescription hair care may support hair retention and regrowth in some individuals. Gro offers doctor-prescribed treatments that may help support scalp health and hair density when used consistently under clinical guidance.
3. Consider Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP)
SMP is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses tiny pigment deposits to replicate the look of a closely shaved head or increased density. It can be applied across thinning areas or used to recreate a natural-looking hairline. At Gro, SMP is available at our Melbourne clinic. Results may be noticeable shortly after treatment, and in many cases can last several years before a touch-up is required. Outcomes vary between individuals.
4. Hair Transplant Procedure
If you're seeking a longer-term option, a hair transplant may be worth exploring. At Gro Clinics, we use the FUE method performed by registered health professionals, paired with a refined follicle placement technique. Results vary and will depend on factors such as hair type, goals, and clinical suitability. A consultation can help determine if this is appropriate for you.
5. Embrace the Buzz
Some individuals choose to shave their head as a personal style preference or low-maintenance alternative. While not suitable for everyone, it’s one approach to reducing the need for ongoing styling or concealment. It may also be combined with SMP or other treatments depending on your goals.

Every individual’s hair goals and stage of hair loss are different. That’s why Gro offers consultations with trained hair growth advisors who can guide you through the available options based on your goals and needs.
