Life hacks to make hair look thicker, fuller and denser
The correct length and shape of the haircut
There is no need to try to compensate for the lack of density in length – this is the most common mistake girls make. It is completely wrong to think that you will immediately lose your femininity if you get a haircut. In addition, many men find bob haircuts very sexy, and among them there are a huge number of pixie haircut fans.
Do not try to come up with a haircut yourself – let the hairdresser do it, trust a professional. Can choose:
classic square of any length;
short pixie haircuts (without undercut – shaved temples and nape);
cascading haircuts (“ladders”) no longer than the clavicle line.
Lucky hair color
It is better to avoid very light and very dark colors in coloring: the former will add transparency to already loose hair, and black will emphasize and make clear any gaps and features of hair growth in the root zone and roots.
Ideal – with a more saturated shade in the root zone and a soft dawn along the length, such staining techniques as shatush, balayazh, airtouch.
Selection of care products and styling products
Choose finish lines to add volume. If the dyed ends of the hair are very damaged, feel free to combine the products – use shampoo for volume and air conditioning to restore / moisturize / preserve color.
If classic conditioners (conditioners-rinses) weigh fine hair too heavy, try leave-in spray conditioners.
With regard to styling products, these can be sealing products in the form sprays, foams, gels и creams… Pay attention to products containing phyloxan. It is a molecule that gets into the hair with moisture. When the hair dries, it literally swells, increases in diameter.
For very short haircuts, a good choice – pastes и creams… Due to their texture and medium hold, they visually make the hair look thicker.
Styling and hairstyle
The first and easiest life hack – dry your hair with your head down… After drying your hair with warm (not hot!) Air (if you do not plan to continue manipulating with it), cool it with a hair dryer with cold air in the same position.
To add volume to hair, use Velcro curlers large diameter over the entire head or only in the upper part of the head. Roll them over warm hair, heated with a hairdryer, and leave for about half an hour. A similar effect can be created using small diameter round brush.
The most common mistake is trying to compensate for the lack of thickness of the hair with the length.
If you need an explicit and persistent volume, there are two options:bouffant or corrugated tongs.
Many have a negative attitude towards ripple effect… Although the true purpose of this device (corrugated forceps) is to create root volume. This is a reliable option for long flights and trips – hair retains its volume and freshness for longer.
To make your hair appear more voluminous, you can also do sloppy stretched braid or any bundles (for long hair) with linings inside. “
– Whenever I want my hair to appear thicker, I do big curls in the style of Victoria’s Secret models. To do this, I wind clean and dry hair on a large curling iron, after sprinkling it with thermal protection. Then I wait for the strands to cool down, and comb the hair with a comb with rare teeth (this is necessary in order for the curls to look natural). And at the end I fix the result with varnish.
The root volume will also help to achieve the desired density. It can be done with dry shampoo. Just remember to comb your hair thoroughly after applying the product.
Thin hair can also be caused by a medical problem. The sudden onset of thinning is associated with both a decrease in the diameter of each individual hair and a decrease in their number. This is a sure sign that some changes are taking place in the body – most often, unfortunately, they are negative. In such cases, you need to see a doctor: you can start with a trichologist or an endocrinologist.
If all the parameters of the body are normal, and the hair grows thinner and falls out early, you can turn to drugs with stemoxidin and biotin.
