If you’ve got big hair goals, here’s how we can help you! Give your locks that extra “oomph” by adding loads of volume and sky high style. From volumizing shampoos & conditioners, volume powder dusts, pre-styling sprays, and more, let’s explore the many ways to add extra body to your looks.
Types of Volumizers
Shampoo and Conditioners Volumizers Duos
Often we think of shampoos as cleaners and conditioners as moisturizers but products in the volumizing category are best when they are used together. This is because volumizing shampoos are intended to open the hair cuticle layer (that's the out most layer of the hair) increasing the surface area of the hair while conditioners then fill in the openings within it.
A good example of this volumizing tag team approach is the Aveda Pure Abundance Shampoo, ₱ 1,800 and the Aveda Pure Abundance Conditioner, ₱ 1,800. When used together, hair looks much more abundant and can add body and volume. Using kaolin clay and acacia gum, these products are 100% vegan and have natural origin. Check out the whole line here!
Volume Powder
Ever heard of root volume? When you flip you hair to another side, you create a lift from the top of your hair or root. It’s this kind of volume that makes hair look big yet natural. But to achieve this lift, you’ll need to neutralize any oils that weigh hair down. Here’s where volume powders can come in.
Schwarzkopf OSiS+ Dust It Mattifying Volume Powder, ₱ 1,190, a 24-hour long lasting volume control powder that disappears into your scalp and roots, providing more body and lift to your hairstyle. Made with silica, it’s responsible for the strong textured feeling, matte effect. It’s great even on short hairstyles!
Volumizing Tonics
When you want to go for a big and bold look, your instinct might tell you to reach out for a teasing tool and some hairspray. However, there are many ways to achieve a more natural looking fresh textured look without using hairspray (although we can’t say we don’t love a good strong hair spray).
Volumizing tonics are great for holding your looks in place! They work well for post blow drying for a more airy effect, all while making your style look and feel natural. Try AVEDA Volumizing Tonic, ₱ 1,900, which coats the strand to set the style without too much stiffness compared to a hair spray.
Volume Mists
Need a weightless formula that adds moisture and shine to hair? Consider a volumizing leave-on like Davines VOLU Hair Mist: Volume Booster for Fine or Limp Hair, ₱ 1,550. Made for all types of hair, its formula is designed to add volume to hair from its base, leaving hair soft and shiny.
Dry Shampoo
Dry shampoos are great for absorbing oils that weigh hair down. But did you know that dry shampoos are also amazing at adding root volume?
We recommend trying Bed Head by TIGI Oh Bee Hive!: Matte Dry Shampoo, ₱ 1,050, with grease removal properties and argania spinosa kernel oil, for brightening and softening benefits without unpleasant white residue. It’s perfect for those who prefer textured looks!
