Our hunt for full, voluminous hair is a quest we'll likely be on for ages. But, thanks to some stellar styling products, we can achieve our dream mile-high locks a tiny bit easier. Most surprisingly, the secret to a bountiful blowout isn't a spray or gel, but rather it's an unlikely suspect: hair powder. Get the scoop on hair powders and how to use them, below!
What is it: Ingredient-rich powders that are applied into the hair to add volume and boost strands
What it does: Adds texture, volume, fights frizz and oil, and extends the life of the style
How to use it: Each particular powder is different and it's best to apply according to your powder's label, but the principle is the same for each. Shake the powder and apply into strands at the roots. Massage the product into the strands and watch volume appear.
