We only ever take tips from the pros, that’s why our Fudge Professional Brand Ambassador Jonathan Andrew has listed the best hair hacks to have your locks looking luscious.
Time to volume up your look!
To achieve maximum volume, first you need a great foundation. Ensure you’re usin the right shampoo and conditioner for your hair type – nothing that will weigh it down but instead give it body and moisture. Followed by applying a volumizing mousse, like our Fudge Professional Xpander Foam, which is a lightweight foam that brings bounce back to lacklustre strands without weighing them down. It’s ideal for limp, thin locks, the formula provides strong hold and gives the hair some real oomph. Make sure to blow-dry your hair in sections with a barrel brush, paying close attention to the roots and using a diffuser attachment if necessary. Once dry, you can then apply Velcro rollers. Pull the sections of the hair directly upwards as you roll to get maximum root lift. Spritz with our Fudge Professional Skyscraper Extra hairspray for a mouldable hold. Leave for at least 10 minutes (or longer if you wish) and then remove for luscious full-bodied volume.
How to style fine and thinning hair…
When it comes to thinning hair, having a longer style can often make it look thinner. The hair becomes heavy and can sit a lot flatter on the scalp making it look finer. If you want to keep your hair on the longer side, my tip is to make sure you have soft layers to encourage volume, from my experience I know clients with fine looking hair are more reluctant to have it cut, but by working in softer layers this will make the total finished results look thicker and fuller! Alternatively, if you’re already rocking the short style, using Fudge Professional XXL Hair Thickener will boost your hairs density by 100%. Its heat activated plumping polymers attach to hair strands, instantly expanding to create a thicker and fuller head of hair.
The best blow-drying tips everyone should know
Always prep the hair with a heat protector, Fudge Professional Blow-Dry Aqua Primer is formulated with hydrating hyaluronic acid and combined with WEATHER-SHIELD™ Technology to create a virtual umbrella for the hair, delivering all day humidity resistance and frizz control, improved softness, smoothness and visible shine. PROTECTION, Protection, protection! Don’t hold the drier too close to your hair – you wouldn’t do it with your skin, so you shouldn’t do it with your hair. But do be sure to thoroughly dry your hair from root to end. If the hair is damp, you’ll lose volume and if your hair is naturally wavy but not fully dry, when you step outside the air will shrink your hair back into waves or frizz. Your tools are also vital for the perfect blow-dry. You need a powerful hairdryer and always ensure you have a range of brushes including radial bristle brushes.
Getting that frizz-free feeling…
If you’ve got frizz, then don’t be tempted to damp it down as this will dehydrate your hair and cause even more frizz. Instead spritz your hair with Fudge Professional One Shot leave-in conditioner spray which will protect your hair from humidity and restore its natural balance. The only way to fight your frizzy curls is to use the right products from start to finish!
