Okay, so I know a lot of girls who want massive volume in their hair, and they tease it, but by the time lunch comes, their tease is - well - not.
Here is the solution!!!
What you will need:
*a brush (not the kind with the pegs, but with firm bristles)
*OR if you have one, a teasing comb (it's like a rattail comb, but the bristles are uneven)(I use a brush)
*aresol (no pumps!!) hairspray (I like Paul Mitchell "super clean extra", or TIGI's "hard head"
*if you want extra massive volume you will ALSO need a spray glue like Spiker "blast" from joico, or got2B glued spray
*a blow dry volumizer (like TIGI's "small talk")
(if you don't have these exact ones or you found one that you like better, its cool! These are just ones that I have used and I know they work for my hair.)
Prep work:
Take a shower and wash your hair, then towel dry your hair.
Here we go!
Blow dry your hair until it is slightly damp. (I put leave in conditioner in before I do anything to my hair) Then apply the volumizer WHERE YOU WANT THE VOLUME (if you put it in everywhere, and you only want volume on top, you may be in for more work, and who wants that!) Then lean so your head us mostly upside down and lift your hair from your scalp where you want the volume and blow dry your hair the rest of the way.
Now time for teasing! TIP: teasing builds on itself, so start at the bottom of your "tease section" and work up! The top and front of your hair should be the last spot you tease. ---- Get a jaw clip or a hair tie (just something to restrain your hair) and clip up the section that you want to tease. Then section (out of your clipped to tease section) out a small horizontal section and hold it straight out. Spray a little bit of hairspray. Put the brush (or comb) in about halfway on the strand, and brush it toward your head. Do this seveal times, and you will start to get what looks like a matting effect. Make sure you go all the way to your scalp so your tease is tight and won't come out! Work your way from the bottom back of your "tease section" to the front top. Then go back in and spot tease. Turn your head upside down, and it's time for more hair spray! But wait for a few seconds before coming back up so the spray can set a little. (this would also be the time for the spray glue if you want to use it). Then smooth down what you want smoothed, and make it how you like it! Good luck, hope this helps!
