You don't always have to spend a lot of money to get beautiful and fluffy hair. Regardless of your hair type or length, you can always learn to tease your hair to give your hair volume. Teasing the bottom of your hair and smoothing the top will give your hair a natural-looking volume. Read on to find out how to add thickness and volume to your hair in a few easy and natural steps.
Step
Method 1 of 3: Prepping Your Hair
Step 1. Wash your hair with a hair development shampoo
If you want to add volume to your hair, then this step is a great place to start. Choose a shampoo that is labeled "volumizing."
- Shampoos labeled "clarifying" are also a good choice for adding volume to your hair. This shampoo will wash away the remaining conditioner and grease that holds your hair.
- Don't use a shampoo made for dry hair if you want to add volume to your hair. This type of shampoo contains a conditioner that will make your hair more even.
- However, if your hair is dry or damaged, it's best to use a moisturizing shampoo.
Step 2. Use a conditioner that adds volume to the hair
Again, choose a brand that is labeled will add volume to the hair, not soften it. If you want, there's no need to use conditioner; If your hair is dry, then your hair will have more texture so your hair feel will last longer.
Use an intensive conditioner if your hair is dry or damaged
Step 3. Use mousse or a gel that gives volume to your hair.
Start at the roots of your hair and work your way up to the ends. For best results, comb your hair so that the mousse is evenly distributed throughout your hair.
Step 4. Bend your neck and dry your hair
This will create volume as the hair will appear to have lost its weight.
- Use a small heat option to add volume to your hair without damaging your hair.
- Use a hair diffuser to maintain its natural waves and volume.
Method 2 of 3: Using the Right Technique
Step 1. Select the section of hair to be brushed
Determine the part of your hair that needs added volume and grab a small section of hair with your hands. Pull the hair up and hold it firmly so that none of the hairs come out.
Many people choose to start brushing the top hair, just above the forehead. Adding a little gap in that section will make a dramatic difference
Step 2. Comb hair back
Place a fine-toothed brush or comb about half the length of your hair. Brush the comb downward towards your scalp. Repeat this movement until a hair cushion forms at the bottom. Use hair spray to keep this hair shape.
At this point, your hair will look messy. But this is normal! If you brush your hair properly, your hair will look like it hasn't been combed in days. You can soften the top layer of hair to hide the messy bottom later
Step 3. Repeat on the rest of the hair
Continue until all the pieces you want are voluminous. Most people use this technique on the top and both sides of the head.
Method 3 of 3: Hairstyle
Step 1. Use a comb to smooth the top of the hair
Place the comb at the roots of your hair and gently brush the tops of your hair so that the undersides of messy hair are hidden. You'll need to apply enough pressure to hold the hair together but don't make it flat again. Your hair will look soft and full, and your hair will feel invisible.
Step 2. Style your hair the way you want
Add hair spray to maintain your hairstyle if necessary.
- Teasing hair can be used to create beautiful dreadlocks.
- Sasak hair is the initial stage to form a French Twist bun.
Tips
- To get a long-lasting hairstyle, use a comb and work your hair a little at a time. If you want a softer effect, use a brush and tease a larger section of hair to get it.
- For best results, do not over-condition your scalp, as this can make the hair heavy and difficult to brush.
- Be sure to hold the hair you're teasing all the way to the ends. This will prevent the comb from picking too much hair and causing your hair to tangle.
- If you are curling your hair, do it before combing your hair. Tearing the hair after curling it can flatten the hair that has been teased.
- Brush the brushed section to prevent your hair from getting tangled.
