How to make your hair more voluminous

Make your hair more voluminous with teasing

Teasing or backcombing is a classic method when you want to give your hair some volume at the roots. It’s also often used in retro hairstyles. To do this efficiently you’ll need a comb that’s made for teasing or a small and fine comb. Grab individual strands of hair and backcomb it in the roots. At first it might look messy but after teasing gently smooth down your hair with a brush. You can also spray some hairspray to make sure that your hair stays voluminous throughout the day.

Make your hair more voluminous with large round brush

When blow drying your hair, use the heat from the appliance, together with a large round brush, to make your hair more voluminous. While you blow dry your hair, the brush should be as close to the roots as possible. The correct way to do it is to place the brush in your roots, grab a section of your hair and lift that section up with the brush while pointing the warm air from the hair dryer to the brush. If you do not want to use a brush, dry you hair with your head bent down.

Make your hair more voluminous while you sleep

While you sleep can also help your hair to stay voluminous. For example, before you go to bed you can twist your hair in a loose ballet bun or if you can use hair rollers. In the morning when you wake up you’ll have a great bouncy hairstyle. The other option is to bend your head and gather your hair into a high ponytail. But it is important not to tighten the rubber band too much, so you won’t get a headache. In the morning, relax your hair with your fingers and you should have more volume at the roots.

Make your hair more voluminous with dry shampoo

It isn’t good to wash your hair too often. The reason is that water and shampoo wash away the natural oils from the scalp, as a result of which the scalp is stimulated to produce a larger amount of oils and the hair becomes oily. Therefore it is advisable from time to time to use dry shampoo instead of washing your hair too often.

Make your hair more voluminous with highlights

When all the hair is in the same color it always looks thinner. To visually increase the volume of your hair, go to your hairdresser and ask her to do highlights 1-2 shades lighter than your natural hair color. It’s a good idea to ask her to do lowlights also, that are 1-2 shades darker than your hair. That way your hair will stand out and visually and it’ll look more voluminous.

Make your hair more voluminous with natural ingredients

You can use natural ingredients that are known to have a beneficial effect on the hair, making it more voluminous. Try mixing up some homemade hair masks that will make your hair healthy and nourished. When your hair is healthy it’ll be much easier for you to style it in a hairstyle that will make your hair look more voluminous.
