Thinning hair can become a worry for men as they age, but the appropriate styling product can assist in creating the impression of thicker, more voluminous locks. One product claiming to achieve precisely that is now available for under £10.
Cremo’s Thickening Paste is currently discounted from £12.95 to £10.36. And, customers can reduce the price further still to £8.29 by applying the code CREMO20 at checkout, though postage costs are not included.
According to Cremo, the barber-grade styling product seeks to deliver thickness and volume throughout the day. The brand states it can be applied to either dry or slightly damp hair, rendering it appropriate for styling as part of a daily haircare regimen.
The paste is also fragranced, helping to leave hair smelling irresistible (perfect for date night). However, customers should be aware that the product is best suited to short and fine hair, according to the brand, so it may not be appropriate for every hair type or length, as reported by Mirror.
Meanwhile, another popular purchase for thinning hair is Sons Thickening Hair Clay (£12.99, Boots). It seeks to enhance volume, with a kaolin clay and caffeine blend that helps to add stability, structure, and strength to thinning strands.

Alternatively, Moroccanoil has recently introduced its Molding Cream (£18), a styling formula that builds soft, natural texture with flexible hold. It’s infused with thickening fibres that create natural-looking texture, while argan oil helps to hydrate and nourish.
Nevertheless, the Thickening Paste has garnered excellent feedback from Cremo customers, boasting an impressive 4.8-star rating. One user revealed: “Before using this, I thought I was the guy with bad hair. Nope, turns out I was the guy with the bad hair products. Now, I’m the pinnacle of good hair.”
Another Cremo enthusiast commented: “Thickening paste works as advertised. Smells great as well.”
A further reviewer noted: “This product works great for me. I have fine, very straight hair that is difficult to control. It smells great also.”
One customer, however, experienced delivery problems: “I haven’t received the item, which I ordered well over two weeks ago, so I can’t comment on it.”
More positively, this Cremo purchaser enthused: “It does make my hair look a little fuller, and it holds my hair all day/night long! I highly recommend it.”
Additionally, another reviewer stated: “I’m a guy in his 50s with thinning hair who knows all about how to plump up the hair either with conditioners and/or thickening products added to wet or dry hair post shower. Your thickening paste is fantastic, and although you say to use on dry hair, you can added it to your damp or towel-dried hair, and still get the benefits. To each his own test out what works best for you! Love this brand.”
While another declared: “Love it. Delivers on what it promises. Nice hold and thickens, giving hair a fuller look. I have tried them all, and this is by far the best out there.”
Customers can use the code CREMO20 to purchase the Hair Thickening Paste for under £10.
