In a recent clip, Zoe and her husband, Danny, were getting ready for bed when she shared the product.
Admitting she had a ‘glow down’ in January, Zoe said she was tackling it with a new beauty regime.
She said: “I’m definitely in my glow down era at the minute. I don’t know what January’s done to me, but I’m ready to sort myself out.”
She said her typical routine took around 15 minutes, but she was in a rush to get to bed, so resorted to using just one treatment, that she loved for .
Zoe added: “I’ll do my lazy girl hair care routine. One product and one product only, the L’Oreal LV Growth Booster. That’s a mouthful.
“This is, I’m honestly about my third bottle of this.”
Danny, her husband, added: “You do need that to be fair, because most of your hair is in that sink.”
The L’Oreal LV Growth Booster is currently on sale in Boots, down to just £8.50.
But Zoe isn’t alone in struggling with hair shedding throughout the months.
Anabel Kingsley, Consultant Trichologist and Brand President at Philip Kingsley spoke exclusively to Fabulous and revealed hair loss can increase in the colder months.

“We do know that dandruff and a flaky scalp are more common in winter, which in turn can increase hair fall.
“People also tend to shampoo less often in the winter, which can lead to the illusion you are losing more hair than usual.
“The more days you leave between cleansing your scalp, the more hairs you will see when you do as they accumulate.
“Another thing to note is that winter is flu season, and high fevers usually cause hair shedding.
” Due to the nature of the hair growth cycle, you don’t notice hair loss straight away – it takes from six to 12 weeks for it to occur.”

Everything you need to know about hair loss and thinning
Anabel Kingsley, Brand President and Lead Trichologist at Phillip Kingsley , spoke to exclusively.
How many people experience it?
Hair thinning (aka female/male pattern hair loss) and hair shedding (aka telogen effluvium) are incredibly common. Telogen Effluvium probably impacts everyone at some point in their lifetime, while it’s estimated pattern hair loss affects 50% of men by age 50, and 40% of women by aged 50. However, everyone’s hair changes and loses some diameter with age.
Why does it happen?
Female and male pattern hair loss are largely genetic. It occurs when hair follicles on the scalp slowly miniaturize and start to progressively produce shorter and then finer hairs. In men, it is caused by a sensitivity of hair follicles to testosterone/ dihydrotesterone (DHT). This can also be the case with women but isn’t always.
TE occurs in response of some sort of underlying imbalance or metabolic shift. As hair is non-essential tissue, your hair follicles are very sensitive to general health as your body gives hair last priority. When something is imbalanced, or you are unwell, more hairs than usual exit the growth (anagen) phase of the hair growth cycle, rest for 3 months (called telogen) and then shed.
Common triggers are rapid weight loss, low calorie diets, thyroid disorders, iron and ferritin (a protein that stores iron) deficiency, lack of Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D, certain medications, intense stress, stopping or starting an oral contraceptive pill and high fevers. Due to the length of telogen, telogen effluvium doesn’t occur right after the causative event – it happens anywhere from 2-4 months later.
How much hair can someone be expected to lose?
With TE, you can lose up to 3x your ‘normal’ amount each day. It’s normal to lose up to 150 hairs per day, and with TE you may see between 300-400. Up to 50% of hair can be lost with shedding, but the good news is that it’s temporary and hairs should grow back as before once the underlying cause is addressed. With pattern hair, it depends.
Men can go almost completely bald, whereas women usually experience a more spread-out loss of hair over the top of their scalp. As pattern hair loss is progressive, early treatment is so important as this allows you to maintain as much hair density as possible.
