3. Don’t shampoo every day ~~ What’s known as “second-day” hair looks a lot better when hair is fine or thin. Hairstyles will look fuller the second day if you don’t shampoo every morning. However, this only works if you don’t overdo the use of hair-sprays and gels.
4. Use conditioner on ends only ~~ Anyone with fine or thin limp hair does not need to condition the root area. Add conditioner to the ends only and rinse thoroughly. If your hair is also dry, use a deep conditioning treatment once a week, all over. Experiment to find products that rinse out well and don’t leave hair overly limp, Your best bet is to choose ones formulated for fine hair.
5. Dry your hair for root lift ~~ When blow-drying, direct heat at the roots first as you lift them straight up with a brush or wide-toothed comb. This works better than bending at the waist as you lift roots with your fingers—doing that only adds subtle lift to fine hair.
6. Use hair thickeners ~~ There are several hair thickeners on the market; most are creme or liquid formulations. These products are formulated with wheat proteins and amino acids that actually plump up every strand. They are not stylers, but they can be used alone when you blow-dry your hair or let it dry naturally, pinned up on top of your head. Start with a dime-sized amount and make certain you distribute the product evenly, using a wide-toothed comb. If you don’t distribute these products well, you’ll get sticky or flaky areas once they dry. Also, if you use too much, your hair might look greasy the next morning, creating the need for daily shampooing.
