Although it can be difficult to figure out the cause behind thinning hair and hair loss, incorporating scalp exfoliation into your regular routine can help thicken your hair. Specifically, by using a scalp scrub, you can help keep your scalp healthy and stimulate new hair growth.
One of the best hair-thickening scalp scrubs is Briogeo Scalp Revival Charcoal + Coconut Oil Micro-exfoliating Shampoo.

What Scalp Scrubs Do
Scalp scrubs are great for hair growth. Specifically, the exfoliation keeps the hair follicle from becoming clogged. Anabel Kingsley, a trichologist (an expert in scalp and hair health) at Philip Kinglsey Trichological Clinic explained to Self: “When [the hair follicle]'s clogged, the follicle shrinks and therefore the number of hairs growing from it are reduced.”
Maintaining a clean and healthy scalp is crucial for hair growth. Trichologist David Adams told Elle: "Keeping the scalp incredibly clean is going to help the hair we have now, it's going to help the hair grow thicker and fuller, and most importantly it's going to help that future hair grow really thicker and fuller."
