Default Flat hair :(

Hey girls, hope you all had a great christmas. Well I have a really annoying problem. Firstly my hair is soooooo thin! I cant do anything with it and also this causes my hair to sit really flat on my head, so i have to tie it up every single day do you have any suggestions to how i can give my hair more volume especialy on the top of my head, or any hairstyles that would help? I've tried gels, mousse, almost eveyrthing.

thanks

Try using a root booster, spray it on your roots and blow dry your hair and it should increase the look of thickness to your hair, also get a body building shampoo and conditioner.

When you blow dry your hair, keep your head upside-down as you do it- that should give you a good starting point if you don't want to experiment with mousses etc.

Try sleeping with your hair pulled up into a high bun, so the roots are being lifted. This always gives me more voume in the morning.

If you straighten your hair, make sure you're lifting the roots away from your scalp as you straighten them.

Yes, this always helps me when I do it in the morning. I like to keep my hair straight, so I always lift the roots away from my head, which allows it to not sit flat on my head. These techniques have worked wonders for me.

Sometimes before I go to bed, I put in a few rollers, one on the left, one on the right and one at the back, just on the top layers of my hair. But use the biggest rollers you can find if you want to avoid curls
