What is a good tip for getting volume in your hair?

Question

I have thin hair and just wondered if anyone knows any good tips for gatting volume in your hair?

Answer 1

Use a good clarifying shampoo like Neutrogena Anti-Residue once a week to remove product build-up.

Flip your head downwards and blow dry. When almost dry, stand up straight and finish your style.

If you have long hair, pull it into a very loose ponytail at the top of your head when you sleep. Use a scrunchy or smooth elastic to prevent snags.

Pantene Extra Body Conditioner (purple band) is the best one I've used. It makes my hair sleek and adds some body.

Strategically placed highlights or lowlights can add dimension to your hair. First of all, the contrast will give the impression of fullness and then the color process will make the colored hair shafts swell a bit.

Find a hair style that suits your hair texture. www.matrix.com has a section with detailed photos and styling tips.

Answer 2

First check out your shampoo and conditioner, use a volumizing formula. These generaly are light weight formulas that will not leave a residue. If your hair is thin, shampoo residue and too much conditioner will weight your hair down.

Also about once a week, be sure to use a clarifying shampoo to remove all residue in your hair.

After you wash your hair, blow dry with a large round brush piece by piece. When the piece is about 80% dry, put a small amount of hair spray on the underneath side, at the root then continue to dry with the round brush.

This is what my best friend does, her hair is very thin and fine and it always looks full and bouncy! Goodluck!

Answer 3

Use thickening/volumizing products...Some good ones are
Bumble and Bumble Thickening Shampoo, Conditioner, and Thickening Spray
Redken Body Full Line
Big Sexy Hair (they have a product called "backcomb in a bottle" that you spray for volume)

When blowdrying your hair, use a product you spray on your roots for volume. Using a round brush, blowdry your hair directing the brush upward.
You can also tease/backcomb your hair for volume. Hold a small amount of hair in your hand, and spray the roots with hairspray. Then use a comb or brush to tease it. And there you go.

the best way is by teasing your hair and then just lightly brushing the top over again. It will look voluminous and pretty.
You can also try volumizing shampoos. Nut, they don't work as good as teasing.
