How to make a volumetric styling?
Girls don't necessarily need styling products to create voluminous hair styling. Here you need to know a few secrets that will make the strands more voluminous and preserve their appearance.
- Washing head. During this procedure, you need to massage and lather the hair only at the roots, all the resulting foam should be evenly distributed along the length of the hair. All masks and conditioners must be applied exclusively along the length of the strands - the products applied to the roots will greatly weigh the curls.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/thumb/715-0/2019/11/kak-pridat-obem-tonkim-volosam-13.jpg)
Also, try to wash your hair every few days - washing too often leads to a thinning of the protective layer on the hair and weakens its structure.
- Styling products. Styling products should be used in limited quantities - the more composition, the heavier the hair itself will be. A ball of foam the size of an apricot should be enough for curls of medium length, but for long curls, it should correspond to the size of a tennis ball.

- Feigned slovenliness. Curls, styled in a neat and sleek hairstyle, always look flat. Try to create a creative mess on your head with cascade, waves, stray strands, or fleece.
