Hair Volume 101

What is Hair Volume?

Hair volume can bring to mind puffy bouffants and piled-high beehives. But voluminous hair these days means bouncy, shiny tresses that are full of life and don’t fall flat. There’s a visible weight or thickness to hair with body, not necessarily because there’s more of it. Hair volume is mostly achieved by restoring your hair’s health, applying hair volumizing products, and using simple techniques that add lift.

Signs of Healthy Hair Volume

The key word in healthy hair volume is full:

Your locks look full as opposed to flat against your head. They bounce easily and move freely.
Your scalp is growing a full head of hair without any thinning patches.
You can grow your hair to a long and full length.

There is a variety of approaches for maintaining every type of fullness, from changing your diet to adopting a voluminous hair care routine.

What Causes Loss of Hair Volume?

A lack or loss of hair volume can be due to multiple factors that include genetics, hormones, the weather, and even nutrition. But there’s hope! You can always find volumizing hair products formulated to address all types of hair volume issues.

Add Volume to Your Hair: Tips for Voluminous Hair

Use a volumizing shampoo and conditioner: There are lots of products for thin hair, so start with a shampoo and conditioner combo that’s formulated to volumize.
Blow-dry hair with mousse: Light and airy mousse is one of the best ways to build body for fine hair. Blow-dry your hair upside down to add space between your strands for even more hair volume.
Lift up your roots when drying: Don’t just wave the dryer at your lengths. Use your fingers or a wide-toothed comb to lift up your roots while drying – but make sure the temperature is set to low.
Switch up your hair part: Making your hair go against its natural part is a quick fix for lack of hair volume. Keep it in place by blow-drying it in the new position with mousse or secure it with a cute clip.
Tease roots at an angle: Hold up small sections and comb towards the scalp a few times. The fluffy look it creates makes your mane seem bigger.
Texturize before you volumize: Achieve a thicker looking mane by adding texture with a volumizing hair product from the Fructis line of texturizing stylers.
