How to Add Volume to Hair

Everyone wants hair with more volume. Fuller hair is almost always in trend. Volume can look fashionable and sexy, but too much is something you want to avoid.

Follow these tips for adding more 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.

Add Hair Volume with Back-Brushing

1. Lift sections of dry hair;

2. Gently brush the underside of the hair section toward your scalp;

3. To keep that style, finish with volumizing hair spray.

Use a flat-backed brush, such as Mason Pearson.
