How To Make The Most Of Fine Hair
If you have fine hair you have to deal with all sorts of issues: lack of volume; flyaways; curls that won 't hold; having to wash every day because grease really shows; insubstantial ponytails; accessories that won 't stay in ... I guess you know all this! But there are things you can do to tackle all these and have great fine hair.
1. Short Cut
This tip pretty much just abides by the universal laws of physics. If you have increasingly fine and thin hair, then you are going to get the most volume and depth out of it if you rock a shorter, more compact hair cut. The less surface area your hair has to cover, the stronger and fuller it is going to look. Any fine hair that has to go further than shoulder length is going to look really weak because it doesn’t have the volume to cover that much area effectively. …show more content…
For exactly this reason, you should make dry shampoo your new best friend. This product is excellent at putting some life back in to your hair, and it means that you don’t necessarily have to wash it every single day.
12. Hair Dye
It’s a known fact that hair dye can actually work to boost the volume of your hair in the first few weeks after having it coloured. Many believe this is because the dye affects your hair cuticle, giving it an artificial ‘plumping’.
13. Brush Type
There is a reason why hairbrushes come in so many different styles; they have different effects on your hair. The general consensus for fine hair is that you want a round brush with a mix of nylon and boar bristles, as this combination of two different types of smooth helps to create volume.
14. Blow Dry
You shouldn’t underestimate just how well a good blow-dry can set and keep your hair in a full, voluptuous style. Of course, the best option is to get it done professionally, but at home it is all about being patient and not giving up when the job is only 75% done.
