We all use a lot of remedies and products to add bounce and thickness to our hair to make it look bouncy and voluminous. Some tricks work, some don’t. If you have really thin and lifeless sleek hair, here are some hair volumizing tricks that I love doing to make my hair look more fuller and dense-
MY TOP 8 HAIR VOLUMIZING TRICKS
Back Combing
Back combing your hair is a great way to add instant volume to your hair. It is nothing but combing your hair from the tips towards the scalp. This is effective especially on the front hair area and the crown area. It is also called as hair teasing. It instantly adds bounce and volume to your hair, makes your flat hair more thicker.
Dry Shampoo
I use dry shampoo in between my hair washes and it not only makes my scalp and hair fresh but also adds an instant volume. A great way to add volume to your hair is to spray dry shampoo on the backside of your hair, right near to the roots and then go upwards near the hair length. After you are done spraying dry shampoo, roughly comb your hair with your fingers and you are done.
Reverse Combing
Reverse combing is also an amazing way to add instant hair volume and I do this all the time. All you need to do is invert And flip your hair down and then comb from roots to the tips aiming downwards. After you are done with reverse combing, style your hair with your hands and fingers only and let your hair stay as bouncy as they are.
High Bun Trick
This is a trick that I learnt mistakenly because I always have a high bun. I found how amazingly it added volume. All you need to do is twist and roll your hair on the top and tie a very high bun. Let it stay that way for 30 minutes or so and then remove the rubber band. Leave your hair as it is and do not comb, you can finger comb if you want.
Use Rollers
You can use rollers for this method or socks. All you need to do is roll your dry hair on the roller or sock. Then blow dry it for a few minutes. Let the rollers or socks stay as it is for 30 minutes approximately and then remove it. Voila! Amazing voluminous hair.
Aloe Gel
Commercial aloe vera gel when used on hair can make your hair instantly voluminous and dense. It also adds a very nice bounce to your hair and makes it look thicker. All you need to do is apply a small quantity of commercial pure and organic aloe vera gel on your towel dried hair and then let your hair air dry. You can also do this before styling your hair to make it last longer.
Messy Pony Tail
Messy ponytail is a great way to make your hair look thicker and voluminous. Only need to do is tie your regular pony and then back comb your hair to make your pony look thicker. You can also use a jumbo curler to add some bouncy waves. Pull your front Hair slightly to add a bump to give your crown area a more denser, fuller look.
Skip Using Comb
If you follow me on Instagram, you probably already know that I do not really use a comb. Finger combing is the best way to let your hair fall naturally according to its natural shape and it also gives your hair a more voluminous, denser, bouncy look. My hair is naturally straight from the top and little wavy on the ends, finger combing being makes my hair look thicker and bouncy.
