Straight, limp and limp hair is a problem that plagues many women who want a full, dancing and healthy looking head of hair. Fortunately, having volume in your hair is not an unattainable fantasy, it is a realistic goal that anyone can achieve with a little knowledge. Read on to find out the right techniques, products, and hair styles to use for great, voluminous hair.

To step

Method 1 of 3: Wash and dry

1. Use a volumizing shampoo and conditioner. The first, most logical thing you can do to give your hair more volume is to use a volumizing shampoo and conditioner. These have a lighter composition than most other shampoos and conditioners, so they don't weigh hair so heavy that it hangs flat against the head. They will effectively cleanse and moisturize the hair while leaving it light and bouncy at the same time. A combination of a volumizing shampoo and conditioner is available for every budget, from own brands of the drugstore to luxury hairdressing brands.
   • When you soap your hair, use enough product to create a lather. Make sure to massage the shampoo into the scalp as this will help create volume when the hair is dry. Rinse your hair thoroughly and then wash it again if necessary.
   • Apply conditioner from the center of your hair to the ends, then use any leftover product at the roots. Using too much conditioner on the roots can make it look greasy and lifeless.
   • While the conditioner is still in your hair, comb out any tangles with a wide-tooth comb, starting at the bottom and working your way up slowly. This will help prevent your hair from breaking, which can make your hair look thin.
2. Wash once a week with a clarifying shampoo. Most shampoos and conditioners contain plastic-like substances such as silicones and polymers that stick to the hair shaft and make hair heavy, leaving it looking limp and lifeless. Purifying shampoos remove these built-up chemicals and other residues, and help to lighten and bulk up your hair. Most people use a clarifying shampoo once a week for best results.
   • Like shampoos, hair care products such as mousses, wax and sprays contain chemicals that build up in the hair and cause it to lose volume. In addition, things like hard water and chlorine from swimming pools can leave residue in your hair.
   • People who swim regularly have more build-up of residue in their hair, so they should use a clarifying shampoo more often, maybe 2-3 times a week. People with colored hair should do it less often, about twice a month, as clarifying shampoos can also strip the color from the hair.
3. Get your hair cut. The longer your hair is, the heavier it will be, which explains why long hair often lacks volume. That's why one of the fastest ways to add volume is a haircut. A few well-placed, excellently cut layers, or even a cropped haircut can instantly lighten and plump hair - and make it look healthier too.
   • Go to a hairstylist you trust, listen to and do exactly as you ask. A good, professional haircut will bring more life to your hair than any product or styling method can.
4. Experiment with color. Well-placed highlights and lowlights can give an impression of depth and thickness to your hair, making it appear to have more volume than it actually has. Dark colors will also make your hair look thicker than lighter ones, so consider dyeing a shade or two darker to give the illusion of volume.
   • A professional coloring or highlights will do a lot more for your hair than a pack of paint at home. This is due to the fact that trained hairdressers can mix different shades to find a color that's just right for you, giving your hair an extra dimension that just can't be taken out of a pack.
5. Use hot rollers. Hot rollers are an excellent way to add bounce and volume to your hair, with a bit of pin-up girl glamor. Don't worry if you don't want tight curls - bigger rollers will add volume and vibrancy, but they won't give you a large amount of curls. When using them, make sure the rollers are heated to the correct temperature before screwing them in.
   • If possible, use the hot rollers on hair that hasn't been washed for a day. Start with the front section, rolling the hair away from the face, not inward. Once all the rollers are in, let them sit for 10 to 15 minutes or until they cool.
   • Before removing the rollers, spray a lot of hairspray over your head. Once the rollers are out, use your fingers to loosen the curls and remove any tangles.Lightly brush through the hair for a softer effect.
6. Have a perm. Despite most people speaking permanent Associating with the crazy, frizzy hair of the 80s, perms are in fact coming back into fashion, and they can be a great way to add volume and texture to your hair (without the poodle effect). Modern perms can provide everything from corkscrew curls to soft wavy locks, depending on your personal preference. They are extremely easy to maintain and can last from two to six months.
   • Just make sure to check with your stylist beforehand to determine if you have the right hair type and to make sure you have the same thoughts about what the result should look like. Bring photos for inspiration.
   • Perms are not a good idea if your hair is often colored or highlighted, as the perm will dry out your hair even further, leaving it looking frizzy and damaged. Getting layers cut in your hair is a good idea, however, as this will prevent it from permanently shaping your hair into a pyramid.

Method 3 of 3: Treatments at home

1. Make an avocado mask. Avocados contain an abundance of natural oils that can penetrate the hair shaft and leave hair feeling healthy and cared for. Healthy hair is much less likely to break and damage, so a weekly avocado mask will keep your hair looking thicker and fuller over time. To make it:
   • Mash two small, ripe avocados and mix with 125ml honey, two tablespoons olive oil and an egg yolk. Apply this mixture to your hair from root to tip, cover with a shower cap and leave on for an hour or two, or until the mask has set.
   • Wash the mask out with shampoo (you may need to wash twice), condition the hair, then dry and style as usual.
2. Use egg. Hair consists almost entirely of protein, so any treatment with this building material will definitely improve the hair. Egg is high in protein and will leave hair feeling strong and thick. Beat two eggs well and then massage the beaten eggs into wet hair. Leave it in for 10 to 15 minutes, then rinse and wash as usual.
   • Alternatively, you can also mix an egg with some hair oil, such as argan oil or coconut oil, and use this as a hair treatment.
   • This treatment is good for the hair and can be done two or three times a week if you wish.
3. Try apple cider vinegar and lemon juice. A mixture of apple cider vinegar and lemon juice makes a tonic that gives back volume to limp and lifeless hair. To make this, add a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and a teaspoon of lemon juice to a mug of cold water. Stir to mix. Use shampoo and conditioner as usual, then use this tonic as a final rinse.
4. Rinse with beaten beer. Beaten beer has long been used by women as a remedy for lifeless hair. The hair absorbs the beer, making the hair thicker and giving your head of hair more volume. The beer also leaves a light film on the hair, giving it extra volume.
   • To do this, open a can of beer and leave it for a few hours until it is beaten to death. Take it to the shower and use it as a final rinse, after shampooing.
   • The best beer to use is one that is traditionally brewed with hops, as this type of beer is high in nutrients.
5. Use henna. Henna is a natural product commonly used for coloring, but it can also be used to add thickness and volume to hair. Make a henna juice by adding warm water to 100 grams of henna powder. Mix it until it becomes a pasty substance, then put it in a warm place for six hours.
   • Mix the henna paste with a container of your favorite conditioner and spread that mixture through your hair. Cover it with a shower cap and leave it in for as long as you want. Rinse it out with warm water, then wash it with shampoo and conditioner as usual.
6. Try castor oil. Castor Oil (Castor Oil) helps to stimulate hair growth and prevent your hair from breaking, leaving your hair healthy and giving it more volume. Heat some good quality castor oil, apply it to the roots of your hair and massage it gently into the scalp with small circular motions of your fingertips. Wash with shampoo to wash it out.
7. Ready!

Tips

• Do not use hot water on your hair as this will dry out your hair and leave it looking lifeless and damaged. Turn the temperature a little lower when washing, and finally run some cold water on your hair before jumping out of the shower. This will help prevent damage and add shine to your hair.

Warnings

• Some of the techniques described in this article, such as backcombing and perming, can be very drying and damaging to your hair. So you should use them in moderation and only if your hair is in good condition.
