My Blonde Hair Growth Journey: How I Repaired Bleached Hair Without Giving Up My Highlights
I’m Louisa, founder of She’s Thick Haircare, and like so many women, I’ve been a slave to blonde highlights and bleach since I was 14 years old.
For years, I loved being blonde, but it came with a constant battle: trying to repair bleached hair while still keeping the colour I loved. Dryness, breakage, split ends, thinning—if you have blonde and bleached hair, you’ll know exactly what I mean.
I was always searching for better hair repair products, hoping I could finally find something that would let me stay blonde and still have long, healthy hair.
Then, a few years ago, things got worse.
When My Hair Started Thinning
I experienced extreme hair thinning caused by years of bleach and heat damage, combined with a particularly stressful time in my life.
My hair became thinner around my crown, weaker through the lengths, and I noticed far more breakage than ever before. It completely knocked my confidence.
I felt uncomfortable, self-conscious, and honestly quite desperate to find something that would support real blonde hair growth and proper hair repair.
Why Most Hair Growth Products Didn’t Work
Like most people, I started trying every hair growth oil and hair repair product I could find.
But nothing worked.
Most products were either:
- Too harsh for already damaged blonde and bleached hair
- Too heavy and caused more breakage
- Full of ingredients that made my hair feel worse
- Yellow or gold-toned oils that dulled and faded my blonde colour
I kept asking myself: Is it actually possible to stay blonde and still have long, thick, healthy hair? At the time, it honestly felt like the answer was no.
Discovering Scalp Oiling for Blonde Hair Growth
After months of research, I discovered the benefits of scalp oiling—the process of applying oil directly to the scalp and massaging it in to support healthier hair growth.
This was the first time I found something that actually made sense. Healthy blonde hair growth starts at the scalp, not just the ends. I started researching organic, natural oils that could support:
- Hair repair for bleach damage
- Reduced breakage and hair fall
- Scalp health and circulation
- Stronger, thicker regrowth
- Colour-safe care for blonde and bleached hair
And then I started mixing formulas in my own kitchen.
Creating the Formula That Changed My Hair
It took a lot of testing, a lot of failed combinations and a lot of patience to find the right blend.
I wanted something that was:
- Effective for blonde hair growth
- Gentle enough for damaged bleached hair
- 100% natural and organic
- Safe for blonde colour
- Something I would genuinely use myself
Eventually, I found the winning formula. And everything changed.
What Happened After 30 Days
After just 30 days, my hair felt softer, shinier, and stronger.
My bleach damage looked healthier, my ends felt less dry, and for the first time in years, my hair felt like it was actually recovering. This wasn’t just another product sitting on my shelf—it was real hair repair.
What Happened After 60 Days
After 60 days, I noticed something even bigger. My hair felt thicker.
I had visible regrowth where I’d been thinning around my crown, and my hair finally looked fuller again. It was the first time I truly believed blonde hair growth was possible without giving up my highlights.
That was the moment She’s Thick was born!
The Truth About Blonde Hair Growth
I truly owe my hair to this oil. Today, my hair is thicker, longer, softer, and healthier than I ever thought possible—and I never stopped getting blonde highlights.
That’s the most important part. I didn’t have to choose between being blonde and having healthy hair.
