LETS TALK ABOUT VLOUME
here are tips that you can use for thicker, fuller hair.
* Use a volumizing mousse or any volumizing products only at the roots.
* Ask your stylist to give you a point cut. Point cutting creates uneven ends and texture creating the illusion of volume in the hair.
* Blow hair upside down, while lifting roots to add volume.
* After drying is complete, spray hair lightly with hairspray and blow-dry hair again for a minute.
* If you need volume at a certain point, tease the hair
* If your hair is El’ natural, opt to have a highlight or hair color done. Hair colors, perms and highlights will give your hair more volume.
* Look for a gel that contains guar gum, an ingredient that gives more control over styling and banishes frizzy hair
* Always apply pomades, waxes and serums to your hair, AFTER you flat iron, use hot rollers or blow-dry or your hair style will not hold.
* If your hair is overly curly, keep layers long so curls don’t spring out of control.
*After your hair is completely dry you are ready to start styling it and adding volume with your flat iron. You are going to want to work on your hair in small sections rather than trying to tackle big pieces of it. Take a small section and pull it straight up toward the ceiling. Clamp it in your flat iron as close the roots as possible and pull straight up toward the ceiling. As you get to the end of the piece of hair, twist your flat iron slightly to curve the end of the hair. The more you twist the more dramatic the curve at the end of the hair will be. Even if your goal is to have very straight hair you should gently curve the ends by slightly twisting the iron for a more natural look.
* If you have fine hair, try not to let your hair grow past your shoulders. Shorter, blunt styles will give your hair the illusion of volume.
* To get those separated curls, wash hair, towel dry. Apply mousse and here’s the trick, spritz hair with a non-aerosol hairspray all over. Comb through and dry hair with a diffuser to create volume.
* Change your part. By going against your natural part, the hair will automatically lift.
-GOOD LUCK
