13 Ways to Conceal Frontal Hair Thinning
Hair tips and tricks for women in Toronto.
For many women, hair is a considerable part of their identity, and thinning hair, especially along the hairline, can profoundly affect their self-confidence. The good news is that there are many ways to solve this problem. Here, we present some creative ways to conceal thinning hair on the forehead, including advice from Toronto hair transplant clinic experts Dr. Philip Solomon and Dr. Mark Korman.
What Causes Frontal Hair Thinning?
Understanding the reasons behind hair thinning can help you choose the right solution. Some common causes include:
- Female Pattern Baldness
- Traction Alopecia
- Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia
- Hormonal Changes or Imbalances
- Genetics
- Aging
- Stress
- Lifestyle Choices (diet, exercise, sleep)
- Medical Conditions
Addressing the underlying cause is essential to managing hair loss. At our Toronto hair transplant clinic, we are led by Drs Philip Solomon and Mark Korman. We offer personalized assessments to determine the best course of action.
13 Ways Frontal Hair Thinning Can Be Addressed:
Styles & Haircuts for Thinning Frontal Hair
1. Restyling Your Hair
Consider a fringe or bangs, a brushed-forward pixie cut, or a side-swept bob to cover thinning areas.
2. Low Ponytail
Opt for a low ponytail to avoid exposing thinning areas and reduce tension on your hair.
3. Experiment With Parting
Try side parting or zig-zag parts to cover thinning sections and add volume.
4. Embrace Your Natural Curls
Natural curls can give the appearance of a fuller hairline.

5. Add Texture and Curls
Use salt spray, heatless curlers, and dry shampoo to add volume. Avoid backcombing and hot tools to prevent damage.
6. Artificial Hairline Thickening
Volumizing sprays, mousses, thickening lotions, and root concealers can create the illusion of a fuller hairline.
7. Use Hair Fibers
Keratin fibres cling to hair strands, making them look thicker. Ensure they match your hair colour for a natural look.
Hair Accessories
8. Use Scarves and Headbands
These can hide thinning hair and add a stylish touch. Avoid tying them too tightly.
9. Use Wigs and Hair Toppers
Wigs cover the entire head, while toppers add volume to specific areas. Choose ones that match your natural hair for seamless blending.
10. Install Hair Extensions
Tape-in or clip-in extensions can add volume, but be cautious as they may exacerbate hair loss if not used correctly.
Medical Treatments and Procedures
11. Minoxidil (Rogaine)
An FDA-approved topical treatment that can promote hair growth. Note that initial use may cause temporary shedding.
12. Scalp Micropigmentation
This semi-invasive procedure involves tattooing tiny dots on the scalp to mimic hair follicles, creating the appearance of fuller hair.
13. Female Hair Transplant
A surgical option where hair follicles are transplanted from thicker areas to thinning ones. This can provide a permanent solution for hair loss.
