How to boost the volume of your hair
What makes hair beautiful? Glossiness, softness and volume. Only when hair is fine or thinning, it tends to lack body and volume. Discover the perfect routines and advice for boosting the volume of your hair.
Good habits for boosting hair volume
Sleep on silk
By sleeping on a silk pillowcase, you will help your hair keep its shape and stop it from breaking due to friction.
Brush your hair
Brush your hair every evening using a soft brush. By doing so, you can effectively remove all styling product residue, which can weigh down your hair.
Style your hair upside down
When you’re brushing your hair, flip your head upside down. This step will instantly give your hair volume.
Backcomb your hair
There is nothing like backcombing your roots to add volume. A word of caution: only do this occasionally, to keep your hair as beautiful as possible.
Use targeted products
There are many products that aim to add volume and body to flat or sparse hair. Incorporate expert haircare into your routine.
What haircare products for boosting hair volume?
The essential volume routine
Daily haircare
On a daily basis, choose a volume-boosting shampoo and a hairspray with a volumising and texturising action. Brush your hair in the morning and evening, with your head flipped upside down, and use a natural bristle brush, which is gentler on the hair fibre and scalp.
Here are the key ingredients selected by Sisley to give hair volume:
• Boswellia gum: adds texture and sheathes the hair, provides support from the roots for a lifting effect.
• Rice bran proteins: intense and long-lasting volumising effect.
• Camellia oil: envelops damaged hair lightly, leaving it soft and supple.

For XXL volume, incorporate expert haircare into your routine. After the shampoo and volumising hairspray, blow-dry your hair using a round brush. Apply a serum too, whose key ingredients will work on hair density.
Here are the key ingredients selected by Sisley to give hair volume:
• Vitamin peptide: improves hair density.
• Einkorn Wheat extract: strength and resistance from the root.
• Pro-vitamin B5: fortifies the hair fibre, increases shine.

Any questions?
Why does my hair lack volume?
A lack of volume may be due to internal factors (hair nature, lifestyle, etc.) or external causes such as excessive use of styling products that weigh down the hair, or wearing a bike or motorbike helmet.
I have fine hair – is it possible to have volume?
Yes, if you use the right techniques and the right products!
What is the difference between lack of volume and lack of density?
A lack of volume is to do with the very nature of the hair: flat, fine, very straight, etc.
A lack of density, meanwhile, is due to sparse hair: there are not enough hairs on the head so the hair lacks body and mass.
I am losing / I have lost hair and I don’t have the same volume as before. What can I do?
You can use a serum as a course of treatment, which will slow hair loss and leave your hair stronger and denser. On a daily basis, use a volumising and texturising hairspray to give your hair body.
