Have you ever dreamed of that magical Hollywood hair with tons of volume? We've all been there - you've washed and styled your hair, but despite all your efforts, it looks flat before you even leave the house. Don't worry, we've got your back! In this article, we'll talk about how you can add volume to your hair in an easy and sustainable way. Spoiler alert: There are no magic tricks, but we have some tricks that work every time.
Why can't I get volume in my hair?
Do you feel that no matter what you do, you can't get that longed-for volume? There could be several reasons for this:
- Hair type: Thin and fine hair usually has difficulty maintaining volume because it does not have the same structure as thicker hair.
- Moisture: Moisture can cause hair to become flat and frizzy, which ruins volume.
- Wrong products: Using products that are too heavy can weigh your hair down even more.
But don't worry, there is hope! With the right tricks and products, even the flattest hair can be transformed into a volume masterpiece.
How do I get volume in my hair? A step-by-step guide
1. Choose the right shampoo and conditioner
The first step to creating volume starts in the shower. A good shampoo and conditioner are essential, but for extra volume we recommend mixing in VOLUME INFUSION in your hair washing routine. It's a concentrated infusion that you simply mix with your shampoo or conditioner to boost volume. Enriched with provitamin B5, it provides instant fullness without weighing down the hair.
Use a shampoo and conditioner like ours Caring Shampoo and Caring Conditioner to create a good base, then enhance the effect with Volume Infusion. Just mix two parts shampoo or conditioner with one part infusion in your hand, apply as usual and rinse out. You'll notice the difference immediately!
2. Dry your hair upside down
When drying your hair, try to do it upside down. It may sound a bit strange, but gravity actually helps create more volume at the roots. Use a hair dryer on low heat and hold your head down while massaging your scalp with your fingers. For an extra volume boost, spray some Volumizing Dry Shampoo Blonde at the roots before blow-drying your hair.
3. use a round brush and hair dryer
When your hair is almost dry, take out the round brush. Divide your hair into sections and start blow-drying from the roots, lifting your hair upwards with the brush. This will help create extra volume and lift at the scalp. Don't forget to use heat protectors, like Nourishing Heat Protection, to protect your hair from heat damage when using hot tools.
4. Dry shampoo is your best friend
We can't talk about volume without mentioning dry shampoo. If you want to get that "freshly washed" feeling and lift without actually washing your hair, dry shampoo is worth its weight in gold. Spray the dry shampoo into the roots and massage it in with your fingers for an instant volume boost. The Invisible Dry Shampoo is perfect for all hair colors and leaves no visible residue.
5. finish with a texture spray
To keep volume all day (and night if you're in the mood!), spray some texture spray on your hair to set it. Texture spray helps to give a tousled, voluminous look and keeps curls in place. Try our Texture Spray for a tousled, more relaxed result.
Common mistakes when trying to get volume in your hair
It's easy to make mistakes when trying to add volume to your hair. Here are some things you might be doing wrong, without even realizing it!
- Using too much product: Less is more! Using too much product can weigh your hair down.
- Forgetting the scalp: Volume starts at the roots, so make sure to massage and lift at the scalp when styling.
- Skipping heat protection: Heat protection is a must when using heat tools, otherwise you risk damaging your hair, which can make it difficult to maintain volume.
