#1 Blow dry your hair upside down

This is the oldest trick in the book but it works like a charm! When your hair dries while it's lifted off your scalp, it's trained to stay in that position. Once you flip your hair over, you'll notice that your hair has more volume.

#2 Blow dry your hair with a diffuser

In addition to blowdrying your hair upside down, you can amp up the volume in the rest of your hair by using a hair diffuser! It's a quick and easy way to get beachy, voluminous waves. Simply twist your hair into the diffuser, push it towards your scalp and blast the hairdryer! Make sure to use the cool or low heat setting to avoid hair damage.

When your hair is in a bun, the roots of your hair are lifted off your scalp, so your roots will appear more volumised when you let down your hair after a few hours. You'll also get loose natural waves!

To get wavy and volumised hair in the morning, simply bun up your hair and sleep in it!

#4 Keep changing your hair parting

If you keep sticking to the same hair parting, your hair tends to fall flat against your scalp. Simply changing your parting will make your hair look more voluminous at the crown. Keep changing your parting whenever you need an extra lift at the roots!

#5 Use less hair products

You might be using way too much shampoo, conditioner and styling products which weighs down your hair and makes it look limp and flat. The only way to find out if this is the case is to cut down on the quantity of hair products you use. If you find that your hair is lighter and less greasy at the roots, then it's a habit that you should stick to!

#6 Use an umbrella when you're out in the sun

You might think that the 5-minute walk to your lunch spot won't do you any harm, but your hair will say otherwise! The sun can dry out your hair, prompting it to take in moisture from the surrounding air to compensate, and this moisture makes your hair frizz and fall flat. When you go out in the sun, bring an umbrella to shield your hair from the sun!

If you have fine hair, having the right haircut is winning half the battle! Check out some flattering hairstyles for ladies with thin hair.
