To give hair volume, especially at the crown, you just need to tease it!!!
Things You'll Need:
Teasing comb or a fine-tooth comb will work just as well
hairspray
Paddle brush
Step 1
Make sure your hair is shampooed and completely dried. You could skip shampoo if you don't have any hair products in your hair to begin with. Too much hair products will only weigh your hair down and not give you volume.
Step 2
You want to tease where you want volume. Usually, this is around the crown area or at the top of the head. Take about 1 inch of hair in width at the crown and hold straight up or straight out if you are teasing the sides or back.
Step 3While holding your hair straight up, take your comb and backcomb the hair about 1 inch from the scalp. Backcomb means combing only the back part of the hair in a downward motion, not a crating-type of motion. You want to comb down and take the comb out. Repeat this like 4-5 times. If you do this right, the back part of the teased hair should look knotty.
Step 4
After backcombing, spray a little bit of hairspray at the root of the teased section, close to the scalp. Let it dry or you can use a blowdryer to speed it up.
Step 5
Repeat this process until you get the volume where you want it.
Step 6
Take a paddle brush and smooth over the top of the teased area. Do not brush hard or you will take the volume out.
Step 7
Style how you like it and finish off with a little bit of hairspray.hairspray works best for the finishing touch.
