Styling Fine, Limp Hair –
Using hair care products which are formulated for adding volume is definitely a good way to help. If you have fine hair you want to avoid shampoos and conditioners that add moisture as these will just weigh hair down. A clean rinse or cleansing shampoo is a great start as it will remove excess build up from hair styling products that weigh hair down.
When conditioning or putting in styling products you want to avoid your roots as this to will weigh hair down. Only condition the ends of your hair and if using a volumizing mousse or other styling aid, apply sparingly.
How you style your hair and the tools you use are going to make the biggest impact. Large rollers can help but not all of us have the time for rollers. One of the quickest ways to add volume to your fine, limp hair is with a hair dryer a large round hair brush. Using these two together will help add volume to your hair as the brush lifts hair up and the dryer will help to set hair. Be sure to read our article on Creating the Perfect Blow Out for step by step tips on how to blow dry hair using your round hairstyling brush. When following these steps you want to pull your hair brush up and away from your scalp and follow it with your hair dryer to add volume to your roots.
One of the most important steps for fine hair in this process is making sure your hair is completely dry. If hair is left even slightly damp it will not hold its style and fall limp. You can check to make sure hair is completely dry by using the cool shot on your hair dryer for a minute or so, if hair feels cool and/or damp dry it for a few more minutes along with your round hair brush.
