My bestie Adam has just introduced a new product range into his salon called nu:u which is made by GHD. I swear by a combination of the Volumising Shampoo/Conditioner and Boost Volumising Lotion. Prior to this I used Tigi Superstar Thick Massive Hair which is also a fantastic product as it swells the hair while still leaving it soft, flowing and manageable. Remember to only apply the product at the roots of your hair and comb through to the ends. Once you've found a suitable product it's important that you work on your Blow drying technique to achieve maximum height as unfortunately product is only part of the solution for fine hair.

my hair has too much volume! its thik and crazy and i get it thinned when i go to the hairdresser! I'll donate you guys some volume :P

I'm still in love with my Toni and Guy thickening creme... but it's running low!! So I think i'll have a go at the products KiKi mentioned - sounds great :)
And yes, Ruru - i'll take some of your volume! ;)

or there is also lemon grass root lift from mop.. just thought id add that. or tigi root boost

I have the thickest hair in the world so i do not have this problem

blow dry while spraying a VO5 volumiser
or teasing :)

The best way to get volume in your hair is to use an alcohol free root booster (whatever brand you feel comfertable with and eather
1. Velcro rollers - spray strands with a thermal boost spray, pull hair straight up and roll down to make sure that the roller is sitting perfectly on your scalp. Do not blow dry you will get frizzies, place yourself under a dryer like at the salone or just waitaround.
(Velcro Rollers do a great job but can damage the hair shaft.)

2. Blow dry your hair upside down but in all directions so that you can style it however you want after.

** Use a volumising shampoo and conditioner, if you are having problems with volume its usually because you have fine hair (there is a difference betwen having fine hair and not alot of hair) AVOID ALL PRODUCTS THAT CONTAIN ALCOHOL!
