How do I get volume in my hair? That is probably the question our hair experts get asked most often. That is why we have collected five expert tips for you to ensure that you get that beautiful red carpet-approved volume and body in your hair.
1. Blow-dry your hair in the right direction for maximum volume
To create volume, you need to give gravity a helping hand. If you simply blow-dry your hair downwards as it falls, you will end up with a sleek 'do. To create volume, you need to do the opposite. Blow-dry your hair upside down. Or even better: use a large round blow-dry brush . Lift your hair up at the roots and wind small sections around the brush. Aim the blow-dryer at it and gently pull the brush upwards out of your hair and voila: volume!
2. Use a volumizing shampoo and conditioner
Okay, we admit it: this tip is obvious. But if you want to create volume, this tip cannot be left out. You have to ensure a proper base and you do that by washing your hair with volume shampoo and conditioner. The Daydream Volume Shampoo and Conditioner for example, these products are specially developed to create volume. And that is not just a nice talk: the formula is put together in such a way that it thoroughly cleans your hair and provides an airy, lightweight base that paves the way for the volume you dream of. In addition, these products both contain a pollution filter. This filter protects your hair against external influences and thus ensures that dirt cannot weigh down the hair and that your hair remains voluminous for as long as possible.
3. Don't use conditioner on your roots
A good volume conditioner is a must , but it is also important that you use it the right way. Only use the conditioner on your ends. Conditioner can weigh down the hair , so if you use it on the roots, your hair will fall flat and lank.
4. Add a thickening spray to your hair routine
Give mother nature a helping hand ; not everyone is blessed with full and voluminous hair. Luckily, there are products that can give your hair a serious volume boost . The Date Night Thickening Spray , for example. This spray is made to make your hair look thicker and fuller and gives you volume that lasts a long time. Spray it on your roots, blow-dry your hair and there you go : volume!
5. Be careful with teasing
If you want volume, we understand that it is tempting. A quick teasing or backcombing will give you a lot of volume. But did you know that you are also damaging your hair? Volume, but no damage: that is the goal for us when creating a hairdo full of volume. Instead of teasing your hair, it is better to use a styling dust. Our Teaser Styling Dust adds texture and grip, thickens the hair at the roots and gives an instant volume boost: just like you have teased your hair, but without the damage.
