Use volumizing products
“Start with a volumizing shampoo and conditioner,” advises hairstylist Sarah Yates. Shampoos that add body will help plump your hair from the roots. Be sure to avoid heavy conditioners at the roots, as they can weigh your hair down and make it look flat.

Tease your hair
A classic trick for instant volume is teasing at the crown. “Backcombing small sections of hair at the roots creates the illusion of thickness,” says stylist Jason Friese.
Incorporate highlights
“Strategic highlights can add dimension and make thin hair appear thicker,” suggests hair expert Tom Connell. Lighter and darker shades create a shadow effect, enhancing the appearance of depth and fullness.
Blow-dry upside down
Philip B. recommends blow-drying your hair upside down to lift the roots and add volume. “Using a large round brush to lift hair at the roots while drying is another way to create fullness.”
Use texturizing sprays
According to hairstylist Michael Dueñas, a dry texturizing spray can make a world of difference. “It adds grit and body to your strands without weighing them down.”
Consider a blunt haircut
Celebrity stylist Jeorge Qureshi says, “Blunt cuts, like a bob or lob, can create the appearance of thickness by avoiding overly layered cuts that make hair look thinner.”
Switch up your part
“Changing your part or going for a deep side part can instantly make your hair look more voluminous,” suggests stylist Sunnie Brook. This trick lifts hair at the roots and prevents it from lying flat.
Use mousse
“A volumizing mousse applied to damp hair can build thickness,” advises Tom Priano. He recommends applying a golf-ball-sized amount, working it through the roots for maximum lift.
