Hair Volume ... For Dummies!

How to create hair volume?

1. Wash your hair;

2. Use a body-building shampoo and conditioner.

3. Don't apply conditioner directly to the scalp;

4. Bend at the waist,

5. Dry hair as you finger style it;

6. Use a dryer with a diffuser attachment;

7. When your hair is half dry, add gel or mousse;

8. Rub the product from the ends of the hair to the roots;

9. You may apply wax into the roots to make them stand up;

10. Lift hair with a round brush or a large-toothed comb;

11. Continue drying. The hair must be dried completely;

12. Flip your head up;

13. Do not use too many styling products; they can weigh the hair down;

14. Add a little water to your hair during the day if it gets flat; lift and scrunch it;

15. Spritz your hair with a small bottle filled with water and a little bit of table salt;

16. Try a few highlights;

17. Don't let your hair get too long. Its own weight drags it down.
