Why this worksCold weather can weigh hair down and rob it of moisture, leading to flat styles. By using the right techniques and products, you can create and sustain volume. The key is to work with your hair's natural texture while using styling methods that enhance lift without excess weight.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Start with a volumising shampoo Choose a shampoo specifically designed for volume. This will cleanse your hair without adding unnecessary weight, making it easier to style for lift.
  2. Use a light conditioner Opt for a lightweight conditioner to avoid weighing down your strands. Apply it mainly to the ends of your hair, and rinse thoroughly to keep your roots light and fluffy.
  3. Blow-dry with technique Flip your head upside down while blow-drying to create lift at the roots. Use a round brush to pull hair away from the scalp for even more volume.
  4. Incorporate a texturising spray After styling, spritz a texturising spray throughout your hair. This adds grip and helps maintain your volume throughout the day.
  5. Finish with a lightweight hairspray Use a flexible, lightweight hairspray to hold your style without making your hair feel stiff. A little goes a long way!

Where people go wrong

Many people over-condition their hair, leading to flatness. Skipping the blow-dry or using heavy products can also weigh hair down. Remember to focus on roots when applying products and avoid applying conditioner near the scalp.

The pro moveTry using a root-lifting spray before blow-drying for extra lift at the roots.
