Why this worksDuring winter, dry air can cause hair to lose moisture and become limp. Adding volume and texture helps combat this dullness, giving your hair a lively, full appearance. Techniques like layering and the right products can create movement and body, making your winter hairstyles stand out.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Start with Clean Hair Use a volumising shampoo and conditioner to cleanse and prep your hair. This sets the foundation for added volume and ensures your hair isn't weighed down by excess products or oils.
  2. Blow-Dry Upside Down Flip your hair upside down while blow-drying to lift the roots. This technique encourages natural volume and helps your hair maintain its shape throughout the day.
  3. Use a Texturising Spray After styling, apply a texturising spray to add grit and hold. This can enhance your hair's natural texture and create movement, giving you that effortless, tousled look.
  4. Try Velcro Rollers For added lift, place Velcro rollers in your hair after blow-drying. Leave them in for about 15-20 minutes to set, then remove for bouncy, voluminous curls.
  5. Finish with a Light Hairspray To lock in your style, finish with a light, flexible hairspray. This will help maintain volume and texture without making your hair feel stiff or crunchy.

Where people go wrong

Many people skip the volumising shampoo, which can leave hair flat. Others forget to blow-dry upside down, missing out on crucial root lift. Make sure to use products that won't weigh your hair down and avoid heavy styling creams.

The pro moveConsider using a wide-tooth comb instead of a brush for gentle detangling and added volume.
