Why did my hair lose root volume? How to deal with this?

There are several proven methods that will help turn thin strands into voluminous and healthy ones.

1 Laying on the other side

This is true for owners of bangs of any length. During styling, change the direction, and it is useless to carry out the procedure with dry strands. When drying, point the hair dryer and comb in a direction that is unusual for your hair.

2 Backcomb

This is a classic of the genre, however, a sense of proportion is definitely required here. Separate the strands from above and secure with a hairpin, and lightly comb the bottom. Use a massage brush, but avoid brushing too vigorously. Otherwise, instead of volume and light fluffiness, you will get a tangle. Afterwards, you just have to loosen the top strands and comb them.

3 Drying

Proper drying will help you achieve natural volume without much effort. Dry wet strands with your head down, after applying a styling product. During the procedure, move the strands with your fingers, and when they are almost dry, you can lift your head and style it the way you want.

4 Curlers

Use large curlers for a dramatic, full look. Now large, light waves are very popular. Roll the not completely dried strands into curlers, applying styling mousse to them. Curlers can be thermal or regular - it all depends on the time you are willing to spend on styling.

5 The right means

Styling products should not be heavy and stick the hairs together, otherwise you will not achieve a good result. There are special options for thin hair, they will fit perfectly. Dry sprays and powders prevent strands from drying out and do an excellent job of increasing volume.

6 Tongs

Regular curling irons will also help make your hair look fuller. Pin up the top of your hair and style the bottom using curling irons. Spray with varnish and unravel the top.

7 Fixation

Gather the strands washed in the evening and tie them with an elastic band. Just use a soft fabric so as not to damage your hair and ruin your sleep. In the morning, simply unravel your hair.

8 Care

It is important to choose the right care products for thin strands. Be sure to use shampoos that do not weigh down your hair, the same masks, and balms. Never apply the latter to the roots.

These simple recommendations will allow you to visually make your hair luxurious and voluminous.

Ways to create root hair volume

The world of style and beauty never ceases to amaze us. Until recently, we believed that it was possible to make the top of the head voluminous only with the help of backcombing. But everything is changing, and today fashionistas know many more effective ways to create root volume. Conventionally, they can be divided into two large groups:

• salon;
• homemade.

Salon treatments

Thanks to these methods, your hair will remain voluminous for a long time (from several weeks to months). Such procedures are not cheap, and their effect on curls is ambiguous. However, they are in demand among many women. Among the main ones we note:

1. Boost Up is a kind of root curl for straight strands. This method is suitable for short hair, but its effect on long hair is not so noticeable. This procedure is similar to carving, only the master does not curl the entire strand, but only the root area. At the same time, he uses only the inner strands so that the curl is not visible. The effect of Boost Up lasts for 2-6 months, then the hair grows back and the curl “disappears.” After this procedure, the top of the head will not only be voluminous, but also fluffy, so the curls have to be straightened with an iron. Of course, this manipulation has a very negative effect on their condition. To maintain the health of the root part, they need to be constantly pampered with moisturizing masks, serums or balms.
2. Bouffant is a fashionable alternative to the previous method. This procedure is faster, more pleasant and more expensive. At the same time, the hair does not deteriorate as much as in the case of Boost Up. The master does not use hairpins for curling, so the hair shaft does not break, and the root bend looks natural. The effect also lasts a long time: from 2 to 4 months.
3. Flissing . When creating volume in this way, the master does not curl the hair, but combs it and treats it with special chemicals. At the same time, recently such drugs have been used that do not injure the hair shaft and bulb. The result of fleecing will please you for 2-3 months.

How to create root volume at home

If salon procedures give a visible effect for a long time, then the results from those carried out at home last until the next hair wash, and sometimes only until bedtime. However, they are popular because they are practically free and safe for hair.

So, the following methods of creating volume independently are known:

1. You can dry your hair with a hairdryer using foam. A volumizing product is applied to damp hair, and then, with the head down, the curls are heated with a hairdryer. Particular attention is paid to areas at the roots.
2. Another option is to dry your hair using a round brush, onto which you should wind individual wide strands.
3. An effective method is to create volume using hairspray. A strong fixation agent should be used. It is applied to the root zone and the curls are allowed to dry.
4. You can curl your hair with curlers (a harmless option) or make large, voluminous curls using a curling iron (a more aggressive method).
5. Long hair can be washed before going to bed and while still wet, braided into a ponytail, which is also recommended to be tied into a bun (so that individual strands don’t look wrinkled in the morning). The next day, the tail is unraveled and the root zone is treated with varnish.
6. An interesting solution is to use a corrugated iron. To get lasting volume that will last 2-3 days, the curls at the roots are treated with corrugation and the result is fixed with varnish.

Get creative with the length

A bob is the most suitable length for thin strands. Long hair looks beautiful only if it does not lack volume and healthy shine. Brittle and thin hair needs a neat haircut, but not too short. In addition, styling will become much easier.

Medium length hair is the best option for thin hair

Tips for creating root hair volume with your own hands

At home, it is quite possible to increase the volume of your hair without using tongs or crimps. To do this, you need to follow some hair care rules. For example, you should dry your hair with your head tilted down. After each wash, rinse your hair with cool water and lemon juice. When you go outside in bad weather, fix your hair with hairspray.

And if no other means help, you can use backcombing and curlers. Alternatively, you can create volume using corrugated tongs. This is a fairly simple procedure. You need to make a parting on your head, separate the top strands, apply thermal spray on them and use tongs.

The curls must be placed in the curling iron one after another, the effect on one strand should not exceed 15 seconds, otherwise overheating will have a detrimental effect, like chemicals.

Forceps can also be used to create root volume. To do this, you need to use curling irons only to treat the roots, you do not need to process the entire length of the hair. The tongs must be used correctly; for long and coarse hair, a temperature of about 210 degrees is needed, for thin and brittle hair no more than 180. The tongs should not be overheated. After the tongs, additional powder can be used.

Boost Up procedure or root chemicals to add volume to hair

The BoostUp procedure lasts from 3 to 5 hours, depending on the thickness of the hair, during which time:

• The top layer of hair is carefully gathered into a bun and fixed at the back of the head;
• The remaining curls are divided into thin strands and wound onto a hairpin that acts as a curler (only a few centimeters at the root of the hair are subjected to the procedure);
• Curled hair is treated with a composition intended for bio-curling and is wrapped in foil on top;
• After a certain period of time, the composition is washed off and the procedure is repeated again to consolidate the result;
• The hair is washed and dried with a hair dryer and a round brush.

As a result, we get a “corrugated” effect at the roots, which is “hidden” under the top layer of hair that is not involved in the procedure, and lifts the hair at the roots.

Boost Up is reminiscent of a bioperm with the difference that not all hair is subjected to the procedure, but a few centimeters at the roots.

Make a different parting

Often the parting is divided in the middle, but this is not entirely correct. Change it and you will immediately feel the difference, the volume will visually increase.

Changing the parting as a way to give your hair a voluminous look

You can do beautiful hairstyles even if you have thin hair, just take proper care of it and don’t be afraid to experiment. All in your hands!
