What Is the Best Volumizer for your Fine Hair?

Fine hair can be a fashion challenge, especially if you want to try a style that requires volume. Those narrow, wispy strands fall flat no matter what you try. If your hair is fine and thin, you also have fewer hairs to work with. All of this can make your morning styling routine feel like an uphill battle. 

Volumizing hair care products are intended to breathe life back into your limp, fine hair; however, overuse or using the wrong product can create the opposite effect. Oils and heavy conditioners can weigh down and flatten your hair, leaving you worse off than when you started. 

What is the best volumizer for fine hair? Look for a multi-step system that addresses your one-of-a-kind hair biology. Better Not Younger uses ingredients backed by considerable scientific research relating to their effects on aging hair. Continue reading to learn more. 

How Aging Hair Grows in Finer 

Aging changes your hair in many ways. During perimenopause, your hormone levels fluctuate. Estrogen and progesterone drop off, allowing testosterone and its derivative, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), to take over. The results are hair loss, sluggish growth, and more silver strands. 

Furthermore, DHT contracts your follicles, forcing them to produce hair fibers narrower than before. Your once voluminous mane is reduced to a fragile, thread-like texture. Thankfully, you can take steps to restore volume to your limp locks. 

Fine Hair Volumizing Tips 

To add volume to your hair, use a system of volumizing products along with some creative styling techniques: 

  • Rinse your hair thoroughly After shampooing or conditioning, ensure all traces of product residue have been rinsed out. Gently run your fingers through your hair and along your scalp. If product is allowed to accumulate, you will wind up with limp, lifeless hair over time.
  • Lift your roots while blow drying — If you allow your hair to dry flat, it will hold that shape; therefore, lift your strands while drying them. Achieve this by hanging your head upside-down or by using your free hand to lift your locks while working your way across your scalp.
  • Avoid conditioning your roots — Apply conditioners halfway up your strands, focusing primarily on the ends. Adding conditioner to your roots can make your hair oily and weigh it down.
  • Try a layered cut — If you have long hair, you are likely aware that the length weighs it down on top of your head. Try having it layered to add texture and lighten it up. But avoid too many layers, which will cause your hair to look thin, defeating the purpose.
  • Use a heat-shielding spray — Fine hair is easily damaged, so use caution when experimenting with different styling techniques. Shield your tresses from high-temperature styling tools by incorporating Better Not Younger’s No Remorse Heat Protection & Taming Spray into your daily routine.
