Anyone with fine hair is always looking for ways to add volume to their locks. Rest assured that it can be done! There are proven beauty tips that can help you produce the illusion of a thick mane. Here are five tricks that can help you create more volume in your fine hair.
1. Dye to add body
First trick: dyeing your fine hair will give them more body. But beware, frequently resorting to chemical treatments can make hair more fragile so choose a permanent long-lasting dye to space out your dye treatments.
2. Use an adapted shampoo
If you have fine hair, it’s important that you use products that won’t weigh hair down. When it comes to shampoo, use a formula that does not contain heavy proteins. Look for the word “volumizing” on shampoo and conditioner labels – the latter also needs to be light to ensure optimal results.
3. Don’t be afraid to use styling mousse
Mousse is a great product for fine hair: its light and airy texture means it will quickly become your best friend. Apply on your locks, even your roots, and then comb your hair to make sure every strand is covered. If you use a hair dryer, do so with your head down to lift the hair at the root, that will add volume once your hair dries.
4. Get a haircut!
The longer the hair, the more it weighs, which does nothing to improve your lack of volume. Book an appointment with your stylist to get a trim and lighten your locks. A layered cut can produce a stunning effect and add bounce to your hair.
5. Apply some dry shampoo before going to bed
To shorten your morning routine and lighten your mane, apply some dry shampoo on your roots before going to bed. The product will absorb the oils produced by your scalp and create a dishevelled look. When you wake up, your hair will have more body – perfect for styling it the way you want!
