Why this worksVolume is all about creating texture and lift at the roots. Techniques like blow-drying upside down or using the right products can make your hair look fuller and bouncier. This works because it encourages natural movement and can help the strands stand away from the scalp, creating that desired volume.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Blow-Dry Upside Down Flip your head upside down while blow-drying to lift the roots. This encourages volume right at the base where you need it most. Use a round brush for extra lift and direction.
  2. Use a Volumising Mousse Apply a volumising mousse to damp hair, focusing on the roots. This adds body and texture, helping your hair hold its shape throughout the day. Remember to distribute it evenly for the best results.
  3. Opt for a Texturising Spray Once your hair is dry, spritz some texturising spray throughout. This adds grit and volume, making your hair feel fuller without weighing it down. Just a few sprays can go a long way.
  4. Tease the Roots Gently tease the roots of your hair using a fine-tooth comb. This creates lift and volume that can last all day. Just be gentle to avoid breakage and ensure a soft finish.

Where people go wrong

Many people skip the mousse, which is key for volume. Others blow-dry their hair flat instead of upside down, missing out on that essential lift. And be careful not to over-tease, as this can lead to tangling and damage.

The pro moveFor an extra boost, use a round brush while blow-drying to create more shape and movement.
