Vega Premium Collection Hair Brush - Paddle - Wooden 1 Pcs

Product Information

Hair rollers are a great way to boost the volume to prevent flat hair and body in your style. Start by blowdrying your hair to about 70% done. Then, add in your hair rollers to create and set your style. Remove your rollers once your hair is 100% dry. 15. Get to the root of the problem. Build up your body by separating your hair into several manageable sections and concentrate on drying each one as you go, focusing on the roots. “Most people pull the hair out in a horizontal direction when blow-drying but raising the hair out, then upwards to the top of your head is the key to lasting fullness,” says Diaz. Though it's something we reach for on a daily basis, most people don't spend a lot of time considering the overall makeup of their hair brush. There's more to it than shape—round, oval, or rectangular, for example. When it comes to hair brushes and how well they detangle and style, the type of bristle—a synthetic material like nylon or a natural material like boar—matters, too. When you’ve spent time choosing the perfect colour and style for your hair, you’ll want the right brush, too. Different brush designs suit different hair types and can create different looks.

When it comes to bristle material, Nader is a big fan of brushes made of boar's hair, as with the Fromm Intuition Glosser. “These are soft, so your strands will glide through them with ease,” he says. “They help reduce the amount of tugging on strands, which can cause hair breakage, and they're fab for promoting blood flow which is beneficial for hair growth.” Pros: Acts as both a flat iron and hot brush, well-suited for all hair types and textures, reaches heat settings up to 400°F We start by taking note of the brush’s recommended usage – for dry or damp brushing, with or without a hairdryer. We confirm the materials from which the bristles are made, the dimensions of the tool and any colour options. In use, we assess how easily the brush passes through our hair and the time it takes to brush a full head of hair. We consider how well the tool removes knots and tangles, how the brush feels on the hair and scalp, the effect of the brush on any static or flyaways and how smooth the hair looks and feels after brushing.

2. Never apply conditioner to your scalp.

For a more effective application, lift smaller portions of the hair at the roots and holding the dry shampoo perpendicular to your head. Spray each section accurately towards the scalp. There are no cutting corners here; the more time you spend on your coif, the fuller it will look. We suggest using Dove Refresh+Care Volume and Fullness Dry Shampoo as this product has built-in volume-enhancing qualities to aid you in your quest to more voluminous strands. 13. Thin and flat hair? Opt for a hair combo of classic styles. English brand Mason Pearson hasn’t changed its cult-classic Boar and Nylon Bristle brush since 1895 – a testament to its superb design. Mixing the finest premium-grade boar-bristle with nylon, the brush is exceptionally gentle on the hair and scalp, so it’s perfect for fine, delicate textures that are easily damaged. Give your hair the best chance and natural volume by cutting it shorter. The longer your hair is, the more likely it is to be flat due to being heavier. This is particularly true for those with flat and thin strands. Try taking off a few inches or even going for a full-on bob to give your hair body and movement. 12. Use a dry shampoo to add fullness.

For bangs, you might want a round-brush style that's smaller in width (think around an inch) to help style short hairs. Volume, though, will require a wider round brush (between 1.5 and 2 inches). The soft bristles of the round brush polish my hair as I twist it through my lengths, leaving it shiny and with an incredible bounce and so much volume at the roots. I will admit that it takes a few goes to get a feel for the styler and how it best works for your hair type. I like to use a good hair mousse and hairspray to ensure my curls last, and I make use of the cold shot button to "set" my hair into place before removing the brush to prevent the style from dropping. These tips, combined with the AirWrap itself, really have helped my curls stay in place. If you've been thinking about investing, I'd recommend it.It’s not just about detangling and promoting shine, though. Regularly brushing clears out impurities that naturally build up in your hair and scalp. It removes old hair, dead skin cells and products which can cause bacteria to clog up scalp’s pores which can prevent growth. Pros: Comes with a variety of attachments, great for touch-ups, great at creating a salon-level blowout This is a simple tip that can change the level of volume in your hair. It’s so important that you only focus conditioner on the bottom two-thirds of your strands. If you put conditioner in your roots is will over-moisturize them and weigh them down, taking away any hope of creating volume at the root, which will, in turn, maintain the flat hair. 6. Use a volume-enhancing mousse against Flat Hair. Incorporate a mousse into your routine for extra volume. For hair that sits above the shoulders, styling choppy layers with a curling wand is a great way to play with texture,” suggests Diaz. “Take layers at various lengths and curl some of the ends inwards and others outwards. This will add the illusion of fuller hair around the face.”

When considering what type of hair you have and what you’re trying to achieve, you should easily be able to find the perfect brush for your needs. Things like the shape, bristle type, and diameter are all things you should consider.

Round brushes like the It's a 10 Miracle Round Brush are best suited for styling, as they create a lot of volume in the hair. Rectangular brushes like the T3 Smooth Paddle Brush, meanwhile, are good for those with straight hair (those with curls may find that the paddle style pulls or tugs at strands a bit too much). No matter what your goal is and what type of hair you have, I promise that there is a perfect brush out there. Its lightweight design makes it perfect for keeping in your handbag when you’re on the go, too – so if you’re treating yourself to just one hairbrush, the Wet Brush deserves to be top of your list. You might be tempted to style large chunks of hair as you go to save time. But, for the most cohesive result, focus on getting the right amount of texture in each small section. This will ensure you have a more finessed and less frizzy result. 11. Give your hair the chop. Cutting your hair short will give it more volume.
