With a hair dryer: a method that works

Using a hair dryer is the simplest method for adding root volume to hair at home. You can achieve the kind of voluminous hairstyle that many girls can only imagine in just five minutes.

To achieve this, wash the strands and then apply heat protection and mousse for volume.

After combing the hair, use a hairdryer to dry seventy percent of the strands, being careful not to burn the roots. The following phase is regarded as critical. Dry the root zone with a warm air stream while lowering your head. After that, go back to where you were before and watch for the strands to cool. Now use your hands to shape them into the desired shape, then apply a cool blow to seal the outcome.

Quick root volume: what a hair straightener can do?

This time, we’ll respond to the query of "how to make volume at the roots" by saying that using a hair straightener will enable you to accomplish the desired effect. The method for carrying out the operation is a little trickier than the last one. First, use a hair dryer to dry your hair. After using heat protection to work the strands, split the curls into sections.

One by one, begin removing them, lifting them by the roots, and rotate the iron so that it faces away from the face by 180 degrees. Start with the end result next. If the curls lay as you desired, everything is ready; if not, use a curling or straightening iron to create the illusion of light, broken curls or waves if the styling appears to be divided into the top and bottom.

Corrugation for volume at home

Have you never known how to use a crimping iron? We make known! After conveniently air drying your hair, comb it through and use a heat protectant to shield the strands from the damaging effects of high temperatures while styling. We decided on a light L’Oréal Professionnel Blow Dry cream.

Next, begin working the strands at the roots with a straightening iron fitted with a crimping attachment. It is sufficient to touch an area between 5 and 7 centimeters, stepping back from the scalp by 1 centimeter, in order to lift the hair at the roots.

Using tongs to get root volume

Using a curling iron to style hair greatly aids in achieving root volume. The most important thing is to curl the curls in the proper locations; if not, the density effect will shift downward and the desired outcome won’t be reached. The best foundation for this technique is short hair.

Using tongs increases the likelihood of reaching the root zone and producing the required volume.

Girls with long hair should use this method in conjunction with an upside-down hairdryer for preliminary hair drying, or apply texturizing powder to finished hair. A product unique in its powers: very few can quickly and successfully build volume at the roots of hair.

The key to getting a gorgeous root volume for your hair is using the proper methods and tools. To lift the roots of your hair, start with a lightweight, volumizing shampoo and conditioner. Don’t forget to blow-dry your hair upside down. A few spritzes of root-lifting spray or dry shampoo will give you long-lasting volume, and using a round brush can add even more lift as you dry. You can effortlessly achieve a fuller, more voluminous look that lasts the entire day by combining these easy steps.

Special styling products for hair volume

Styling products are a great resource for adding volume to hair at the roots. But how can one pick the ideal product? We’ll clarify with concrete examples.

Hair mousse

This is a timeless piece! Both long and short hair can benefit from mousse’s ability to add volume at the roots. Because mousses have the ability to fix hair, it should be applied to semi-damp strands and immediately give the hair the desired shape while it dries.

For instance, L’Oréal Professionnel’s Full Volume Extra claims to provide volume at the roots, even on fine hair.

Powder

The powder format is not as common as the gel or mousse format, and it is completely unclear why! Firstly, this product is used on dry hair, which means that you do not have to wash your hair and dry it with a hairdryer before styling. Secondly, it is convenient to create volume pointwise – for example, if you only need to lift the bangs or strands on the crown. Thirdly, it is convenient to take with you: the bottle is lightweight and takes up almost no space, and does not weigh down your cosmetic bag. But the main thing, of course, is the result – great root volume, which can be adjusted throughout the day by smoothing the strands or lifting them with your fingers.

Lash

If you want to backcomb the roots of your hair to add volume, Lash will come in handy. The process is a little painful, but it works well if all you have on hand is hairspray and no hot styling tools.

Dry shampoo

Another way to get root volume is with dry shampoo.

Not only can a product that rescues people from being let down by an alarm clock or an unexpected hot water shutdown bring back the appearance of freshness to your hair, but it can also add volume to your hairstyle.

How does it operate? For example, the fixing effect and visual cleanliness of your hair are achieved by the absorption of sebum by corn starch found in Matrix dry shampoo.

Salon procedures for root volume of hair

Boost Up

What does boost up mean? A reasonable query given that the process is still relatively new. To make it easier for you to decide whether or not you like the outcome, let’s start with some before and after pictures.

Boost Up is a type of root chemistry, but it uses a particular curling method and a softer composition (no ammonia). The strands at the roots are only partially utilized, and they are uniquely curled on hairpins.

Fleecing

Can you not picture your hairstyle without using a backcomb? Then you ought to think about fleecing, a process that produces the intended outcome over time. After two to three months, you must either get new fleecing or undergo hair restoration.

It’s crucial to remember that this technique for adding volume is hardly a spa ritual, so after fleecing, gentle care—such as nourishing masks, oils, and serums—is essential.

Bouffant

It appears that more procedures tailored to keep hair volume stable for several months are being performed. Bouffant provides additional evidence for this. Because hair is curled on curlers rather than pins after this procedure, as opposed to boostup, it is thought that styling looks more natural. Regardless, we do not advise "becoming hooked" on bouffant permanently. Up to three months are allowed for the effect to last, after which we advise taking a break. Additionally, you’ll discover items below that can lift your curls without using such drastic measures.

Method	Description
Blow-drying upside down	Flip your head over and blow-dry your hair from the roots to create volume.
Teasing	Use a fine-tooth comb to gently backcomb sections of hair near the roots.

Gaining root volume can completely change the look of your hairdo, giving it a fuller, more vibrant appearance. With the appropriate methods and supplies, you can achieve all-day lift at the roots. It all comes down to figuring out what suits your hair type and preferred style the best.

You can find the ideal routine by trying out different techniques, such as using a volumizing mousse, blow-dry technique, or even hair styling tools. Keep in mind that the goal is to achieve volume without making your hair appear weighed down or causing damage from excessive heat or product use.

Making the most of your natural hair texture and enhancing it are the ultimate goals of having voluminous roots. You can achieve your high goals for the volume of your hair with a little perseverance and practice. So go ahead, give these suggestions a try, and relish the self-assurance that comes with gorgeously thick hair!
