Why does your hair look flatter even when you use volumizing products? 👀
Because you didn’t use the most underrated tool for volume… your hands. 🤚🏼
I see this all the time with clients.
They keep switching products trying to fix their volume, but they’re not changing how they style.
Volumizing or texturizing products can help, but they don’t replace technique.
After styling, I always go back in and:
• separate any clumps that are too large
• adjust the direction of my curls
• scrunch all the way to the root
• fluff at the roots
That’s what actually builds shape and fullness.
If you skip this step, your hair can look flatter or more sparse, no matter what products you use.
Especially if your hair tends to over-clump.
This isn’t about adding more product.
It’s about finishing your curls properly.
