Voluminous, textured hair is every girl’s dream and the biggest challenge. Of course, we all know the undeniable power of volumizing hair products – the magic in the bottle that gives you big and bouncy locks. But, sometimes, we simply don’t have spare time to use all of our styling products. And that’s when we turn to the hair community for quick and easy volume tips.
Claw clip, bobby pin, hair dryer – all these tools can add volume to your tresses if you know how to use them the right way. We found three life-saving hair hacks to raise your roots to new heights in under a minute.
One of the best ways to achieve volume naturally is to blow-dry your hair upside down. For this hack, you don’t need to flip your hair all the time to raise the roots. Just brush your hair up on one side and heat blast this hair section for 5-8 seconds. Change to cold air for 6 more seconds.
You surely know how the cool shot button can make a huge difference to your hair. With this volume trick, the hot air makes your tresses more flexible by opening the hair cuticles, while the cold air seals them. The result is an effortless volume with no styling products. The hack works best on short and fine hair.
So, you want to wear a side part this time, but your mane lacks volume? Not anymore! This genius hair trick is exactly what you need to slay any side-part hairstyle. First things first, section off the front of your hair for the side part. Tie this section with a transparent elastic and slide it almost all the way to the ends.
Then, drop the hair section down to your face to get a perfect side swoop. Secure the small ponytail with a bobby pin behind the ear to keep the side part volume rockin’. Cover the pin with some more hair and enjoy your bomb volume!
Did you know that claw clips are not only great hair accessories but also helpful tools for creating dreamy volume? Just grab your favorite claw clip and lift your hair at the roots with it. Apply some volumizing spray and blow-dry the area for a stronger hold. Repeat the process until you get the desired volume.
