Lydia Millen reveals incredible bargain TikTok hack that made her hair grow inches in just weeks
INFLUENCER Lydia Millen has revealed the secret behind her incredible hair – a £7 hair oil.
The 34-year-old told how her hair had grown inches in just two months thanks to the rosemary infused product.
Showing off her stunning locks, Lydia, who cut four inches off her hair last year, said: “I take hair supplements and started using a Rosemary oil after being influenced by TikTok as well and shampoo and conditioner focused on hair growth.
“I’ve also dropped heat styling down to 170 degrees and started using a scalp massaging brush. And I can’t quite believe how quickly it has grown.”
She then revealed the £7 product, which is available from Amazon, and said: “I was totally influenced by TikTok and this one is premixed so I don’t have to worry about getting quantities right.
“I pour it into my hands and massage through the scalp then massage it further with the scalp brush. I leave it in for the dog walks or if I am super time poor, over night and double shampoo in the morning. It smells so wonderful and natural.”
Rosemary oil is scientifically proven to help hair growth, which would explain why the TikTok trend has taken off.
Marnie Nussbaum, MD, FAAD, a board-certified dermatologist told Elle: “The rosemary plant contains carnosic acid, which is known to heal nerve damage, tissue damage, and improve cellular turnover.
“Therefore, it encourages nerve growth and improves blood circulation. The reason blood circulation is so important to hair growth is that without a proper blood supply, the follicles do not get the nutrients they need to grow the hair, and they can die off.”
Lydia is a fashion, fitness, lifestyle and travel influencer, who began her career in 2012 using Instagram and YouTube to share her favourite outfits, fashion hacks and seasonal trends.
She also posts clothing hauls, try-on videos and often brings her followers along for a shopping spree.
