-
Part Change: Changing your part helps create volume at the crown of your hair. We all have a favorite part that we've been rocking for years on end. Most times it's where your hair falls naturally, but the problem with this is that you're training the hair to stay like that and that's where it would like flat the most. The part could be a little off-center or somewhere around the middle. Changing or switching your part from its natural to fall, immediately gives your hair more volume at the crown. Giving it apart while your hair is wet, stops it from looking lopsided. You can as well go for a deep side part on the opposite side of your hair while it's dry, securing it with hairspray to make it firm for higher and bigger volume.
-
Tease: A little teasing never does anyone any harm and it would do your hair much good. Tease your hair using the back-combing technique to create soft volumes of hair, you can secure the teased parts with hairspray and let down the rest to achieve a smooth finish. We told it's quite achievable, didn't we?
-
Blow-dry: Blow-drying your hair adds volume to it, but blow-drying it upside down adds more volume. All you have to do is flip your hair upside down, this allows your scalp to automatically lift off your scalp for an instant and easy voluminous finish. You could also attempt a blowout to give your hair more volume. Use your round brush and wrap your hair (starting from the root) around it, blow-dry the hair with the nozzle pointed downward, then slowly pull the brush out from the roots to the edges of your hair, drying it all the way. For more volume, lift the hair upwards with the round brush and blow-dry in the same manner.
-
Volume Building Shampoo: Volume building shampoo helps you build up the volume as the name implies. Go for the clear and translucent ones that don't allow for heavy chemical us. A color-safe sulfate-free volume building shampoo will not only give you extra volume, but it will also not weigh your hair down or damage it.
-
Hair Mask to Boost Roots: Boosting your roots with hair masks will give it the much-needed structure to support any lifts to create volume, think of it as a foundation for your hair. Only apply them to damp hair as they won't be effective when applied to dry hair.
- Root Crimping: Crimping your hair kind of faded way back in the '90s, but it's back with a twist. Instead of crimping the whole hair, all you do is crimp the roots. Crimping the underlayers of your hair makes it stand out from the scalp but disguised by the top layers, leaving your hair voluminous and your roots undetected.
-
Hot Rollers: Hot rollers give you fuller and voluminous hair within minutes. All you need to be done is to choose the directions you want your waves to flow. For instance, rolling it away from your face gives you outward and fuller waves, and rolling it inwards or towards your face gives you a vintage and inward wave. To make your voluminous waves last, apply hairspray before hot rolling, leave the rollers in till they cool before taking them out and then finally brushing with a soft brush to maintain the waves.
-
Dry Shampoo: Oil will affect your volume, that's where dry shampoos come in. Dry shampoo prevents oil from spreading down the hair shafts and weighing your strands, especially when there's a build up of oil and hair care products. Spraying it through the lengths of your hair helps create more texture, as dry shampoo comes with volume building effects.
-
Color: Color just has that effect of bringing everything to life. A little coloring on your hair is bound to add more volume to your hair as it also shakes up your hair cuticles to hold more volume.
-
