- Ok so first off, BIG DISCLAIMER, I'm not a hair dresser and I know little to nothing about hair...but I do know what works for mine, and as I'm asked about my hair all the time, I thought I'd share the products I use, and how I use them to get volume in my fine, lifeless, limp, flat hair. Hope it helps. x

Your hair twin here, watching and taking notes all the way in Mississippi, USA!!! 💖
Thank you for this video. I have fine hair as well. I purchased the Revlon One-Step Volumizer Original 1.0 Hair Dryer and Hot Air Brush for roughly $35.. it does the trick!!
Another great tip for superfine hair especially at the crown where you want some lift is to buy a very inexpensive crimping iron. You lift up the top section of your hair and clip it out of the way and you crimp the under layers along the part line which adds a little bit of texture and volume then you release the clip and let your top layer lay down. It’s another technique instead of teasing or back coming your hair. Works beautiful on me!
my mum always tells me to do this! Going to try
Fellow crimper here , brushes out to even more volume.
Does it look crimped after you brush it out? Or just volume?
I’ve never had anything other than thin, flat hair on top of my head, and have been trying for years to find something that will give me volume. Thank you for this!
There are some great tutorials all over CZcams from hair stylists to hair enthusiasts teaching how to get volume on fine limp hair. Products are your friends, volumising mouse, root lifter, sea salt spray, etc. vary the amount of product and experiment to find what works for you. My local hairdersssing salon has been a wealth of information for products. With blowdrying, there are loads of tutorials out their on how to dry your hair using a brush. I’ve simply watched those and kept using my trusty cheap blowdryer that was in the bathroom and a round brush and as my technique improved, I got more volume at the roots. Also check out hot brushes/blow out brushes, they are are a fraction of the price of a Dyson, easier than a round brush and dryer, but achieve very similar results.
I too am clumsy with using a hair brush and a dryer in the other hand. Then I discovered the Dyson Airwrap and haven't looked back. I use the same attachments you showed in this video. It didn't occur to me to use the stiff bristle brush to style it in the opposite way that I normally wear it. So thanks for that tip. As for the curls, I haven't had the courage to use the barrels yet. That's next on my experiment list!!!
I had exactly the same sort of hair and I mean ‘had’ as once I hit the menopause I suddenly gained curls…. who knew hormones could make your hair curl but apparently it’s a thing!
Thank you for sharing this information! I have thin, flat hair and I feel a bit lost in my styling routine. Last night I also found that my blonde isn't really blonde anymore, it's white! I couldn't help but laugh because I thought it was blonde until I got a closer look. :)
The products you shared are some that I'm excited to put into my routine. Hoping for availability here in Canada.
Thanks again!
But it must be a lovely shade. That happened to my hair too. I love it no more dying 😊❤
I love Gemma's live vids 😍😍😍
Thank you Gemma - I’ve got the same hair x
I’m gonna try that dry shampoo trick! Thank you!
Wow! Did it with the products i normally use and this routine really worked! And super quick and easy! Thanks for sharing!
Yes, yes, yes! Many thx for this video! Will try your routine asap 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Love this live malarkey!🥰
I love this! My hair is thin, fine and limp! I want to try everything you suggested! Thank you!!!!
Thank you so much for this. I'm definitely the before photo. Might need to give that mousse a try.
Thank you for this video! I’ve been hoping for a while that you’d share your hair styling routine!
Thank you so much for this video! I have fine thinning hair as I'm aging and it is certainly a struggle. I am delighted to know your tips!!
Hi Gemma thank you for sharing this will definitely be getting the leave in conditioner 🌸🥀🌹🌺🌷🌼🌼🌻🌸🥀
Loved this video, thank you. I am always looking for recommendations for products to bring volume to my thin, fine textured hair.
Thank you SO, SO much for your help. I’m really desperate for learning how to add volume to my flat and thin hair. I’ll be trying this tomorrow. Thank you again 😊
Great video and she gets right to the point quickly, clearly and precisely! Good job and thank you😀
I have the Dyson airwrap and couldn't figure out how to use it until you did this video! Thank you for inadvertently teaching me how to use it! I'm blonde with thin, limp, flat hair too. Definitly doing this technique next time I wash my hair. Thank you so much for sharing!!!
I agree with the living Proof dry shampoo. Love it and use it too. My favorite. Thanks for this video!
Very helpful video. I have short fine hair. I actually loved the volume in your hair before you used the flat iron.
I have long fine flat hair and find the bed head queen for a day spray amazing! X
Thank you! Will try...have straight ish hair no volume!! Losing it too! Will try these!!
You know SO MUCH about hair though and your hair is always gorgeous! Xx
Thank you, thank you….I’m fed up of flat hair….will try this out. Hope you had a great evening xx
I too love and use a texture spray and dry shampoo!!!! Great video. My daughter just got the Dyson air wrap and she loves it🥰
Living Proof is a miracle! I Wille have to try the Southern Belle mousse. I have thin, extremely fine hair! Thanks for this video!
Hey Gemma, I really waited for a dyson video 😅 thanks for that ❤️
I am currently testing myself through popular hair brands after using and loving the Grow Gorgeous products. I still do live them but I got a bit bored and I have a tiny Instagram account so I wanted to test a but. I'm currently trying the Briogeo oat series and the mango cherry for sculp regulation. And soon I'll get my hands on the curlsmith bond repairing line. Not sure if one might be for you as well. The briogeo is quite rich so it might be to heavy for fine, straight hair (I do have a perm). I also tried the Innersense mousse for volume and I quite like it. It gives fine hair some grip and crates a little lift as it's name sais. So this might be interesting for you. I love my dyson to the moon an back. It's styles my hair and smoothes these cuticle doing this as the hair flow always goes in the direction of the hair shaft. I have fine hair too but very much of it. The dyson dries this bunch of hair in no time. I love it. But to hold a curd or wave or any form my hair needs the perm. Without it every curve disappears in minutes. So for my I found the best combination
Hi Gemma, thank you for this hair tutorial. I can see the dyson makes it so quick and easy. With that being said, I have thick hair and as straight as a board and will not hold curl. I’m going to try the 2products u used and hopefully it will help give me the volume I work so hard to get. You are so cute and precious.
Absolutely brilliant video ... as I have alot of problems with thin hair since I've hit the Menopause & also being on Tamoxifen .... plus I've lost alot of weight ... Its never been very thick ...but thicker than now ... I too have found dry shampoo works really well ... I love the Living Proof 1 ... but also the Lee Stafford scalp loving dry shampoo ... its really good !
You hair always looks so lovely 😍 💕 💖
Based on your recommendation I got the Southern Belle mousse and OMG! Volume for days! I started my « grey » journey in December 2020, and I would not go back. Since I was blonde all my life, the transition was not too painful 😊
Will definitely look for those products. Your make up looks gorgeous too, please do a video on natural eye makeup look ❤️
I do like the Paul Mitchell extra body root lifter. I also have fine limp hair with the added joy of the frizzies as soon as humidity hits it!
I too use the Dyson airwrap and love it. I use Oribe Maximista to give me extra body that is not stiff. I spray on each section of hair as I dry. It has been a game changer for me.
I love the baptiste volume dry Shampoo, it definitely lifts my roots! I use the John freida brunette conditioner after my regular shampoo to blend in my greys, really works to blend in the white hairs naturally x
I have always hated my limp fine hair, it won’t even take a curl or wave, thanks for the tips xx
Hi Gemma, You look way to young and pretty to go Gray! Love the color, and always love all your vids! You always explain everything very well!
My hair is extremely fine and straight. Thanks for sharing this with us. Can you show us more of your hair? Ie: how it’s cut etc. Thanks Gemma you are a star!
amazing lift!!
I blow dry my hair to damp. I use The Knot Doctor hair dryer with the plastic brush head and I love it!! I do need to get the round attachment for it.
Love your channel ❤
I also have the same fair, limp thin hair and I have the dyson air wrap. I will try the same technique that you use. Thanks
Oh wow, great tip! I was using the Living Proof dry shampoo after my hair was oily. Brilliant idea to use it at the beginning of the fresh washed styling routine. Thank you.
I've definitely got to get the Dyson dryer. It's just awesome!
My unruly mop could be tamed 😂😂
I think I take the prize for thin, fine and dry hair. I’m going to try that dry bar mousse!
I’ve been using the thickening spray and volumizing spray from Aveda. I like that their products are vegan and natural. I apply the thickening spray all over right after the heat protection. Then spray the volume spray in sections at the root like you do. However, after a few years I started getting itchy and dry scalp. I stopped using the volumizing spray and dry shampoo. My hair still had some volume. Every now and again I will use the dry shampoo and volumizing spray but I don’t do it after every shampoo day anymore.
Great video! Would love to see what your hair looks like at the end of the day.
I've never thought of using dry shampoo on clean hair. Will definitely try these techniques as I too have thin, fine, limp hair. I thought about getting a Dyson Airwrap a little while ago but they seem to be permanently out of stock so I gave up on them.
Thanks Gem xx
I’m new to your Chanel & wanted to say thank you. I’ve got exactly the same hair as you, so thx a bunch,really. Excited for more..
Welcome to the Pack Catherine xxx
I just noticed I wrote Chanel & not channel, lol . Hmmmmm hahahaha.
Hi Gemma, I've very fine straight, oily-prone hair...and a natural blonde, so don't even have colour product in my hair to add a bit of dryness, which is what I need!
I really like the Colour Wow Raise the Root Spray in damp hair before blow drying...it works the best out of a long list of root boost products I've used down through the years! Moroccan Oil Dry Shampoo is also a great one, if you're looking for another dry shampoo to try! Smells gorgeous and no tackiness. The Moroccan Oil Texture Spray is brilliant too if you want to add little grit if youve waved your hair!🙂
I tried the Southern Belle product after you recommended it before. It didn’t seem to do a lot for me, but I can see it works for you. We are all so different. I’ve spent a fortune looking for my perfect products. You’ve gone a little lighter haven’t you? I do like it lighter.
Hello Gemma 😊 Great tutorial and yes i have the thin hair also 😐😐 I've jotted down the products 👍My hairdresser says I've got fine hair but a lot of it lol. Ive always used mousse from i was 15. I need something gin my hair lol. 💙💜💙
I'm the same with very fine hair, I've found the color wow xtra large bombshell volumiser is really good. I use that on wet hair to prevent any stickiness. Also been using their dream cocktail carb infused serum. Also started using the batiste naturally range dry shampoo, this one leaves less of a residue than the original batiste ones for me as I hate the feel of product in my hair. Glad to see someone else using the airwrap same way I am to get volume
Thank you for the tips on the Xtra Large Bombshell. I'm always open to trying new things xxx
I love the carb infused cocktail but just found that it's even better with dream coat -- a product I thought would flatten out my hair! I don't necessarily want big hair; I just hate my hair to lay flat at the root!
As well as your shade twin, I am now your hair twin lol!!! Also I am now fighting my greys off with a basketball bat (the stick no longer does the trick) 😂😂 Great video and tips Gem 👍🏼👍🏼
Sidenote...loving the toned arms. Goals 🥰
Thank you x
Hi Gemma
The new LP dry volume and texture spray is also excellent and would if you’ve not tried it already x
Heat makes the style, cool sets it. Some Velcro rollers and letting your hair cool on those to retain max volume and shape.
The air wrap has a cool air function xxx
OMG...I thought I was alone in my boring, flat, baby-fine, grows so slow and not a lot of hair world!!! Bless all of you!! I had given up and just wear my hair in a clip; I will be trying a lot of the tips and tricks from the video and in the comments! 💖💖💖
Been using living proof dry shampoo on my hair on day two and it extendeds the volume and time between shampoos on my fine thin hair. Best tip ever, a game changer! Now if I only had the Air Wrap….
Too many steps for me but it is working for you girl❤️😊❤️
I have no idea if this is available outside of the US, but Kristin Ess makes a Loose Styling Powder that is just…chef’s kiss! My hair is very fine, thin, and flat as well. I usually have it in a pixie cut, but now I’m really curious what this powder would do for me with my hair grown out a bit. It’s similar to a dry shampoo, but it’s a little bit sticky and builds volume at the root like nothing else I’ve ever experienced. You won’t like it if you want your hair to feel soft all the time, but that’s a trade-off I’m happy to make. It’s got a fragrance, but it’s very mild and doesn’t last, which is critical for me. As if all that wasn’t good enough, it’s $11 for a bottle that will probably last me a year at least. I just hope they don’t discontinue or change it 🤞🏻
Thank you from New Zealand
I use L’ange products. Thick it, Glaze and Posh on towel dries hair( start with a dot of Posh, less than a dime size of Thick it and Glaze) This protects and detangles while giving volume. Then the Volume mouse, mainly at the roots. Drying is basically the same
I use a blow dryer and finish with the 60mm le Volume. Then Daja Vu dry shampoo. I use either the Cascade or Keratin shampoo and Slicke conditioner.
My bank account would be so much healthier but for the money I've spent over the years on volumizing and texturing shampoos, conditioners, styling products, tools. My current favorites are Amika Kure set for wash day; Color Wow Cocktail, carb infused followed by Color Wow Dream Coat; day 2 and following - Pureology. Color Fanatic leave in; Olaplex 7 oil for ends; last day before washing - Kristen Ess loose styling powder if I need volume or r+co Spiritualized dry shampoo. Don't use hairspray often, but, if I must, Amika Fluxus. Other loves include BB texture and thickening creams and their hairdresser oil line - my hair has always loved some oil in the lengths.
I am going to try this out! Thanks for the tips. Aw the mousse is out of stock..possibly discontinued by the looks of it online..😥 any other mousse suggestions? Xx
Super video. I also have little and fine hair ... Feel you here! Do you alter the DRY SHAMPOO and the TEXTURE SPRAY or us them both at the end of your blow out? Sending oyu hugs.
My hair is short with layers , have lots of hair but it is fine and lays flat. I have found the paul mitchell texturizing spray has been a miracle for my hair, makes it look so full of volume.
I have barely any hair - it’s thin and so fine. The Color Wow XL Bombshell volumiser has been a game changer for me. It does just what it says on the tin - voumises like a normal mousse but without any drying or stiffness and it stays soft and shiny
I don't think we've ever seen you with beach wavy type hair. (Really want the Dyson air wrap but sold out everywhere!)
Hi Gemma, I like using the Ouai wave spray on my roots for volume. Is lighter than the root volumiser mousse I used to have from the L’Oréal Tecni Art range
I used to have super thick, dense curly hair. Now thanks to medication, I have fine, thin, low density curly hair. Thank you God for my curls, I still look like I have a lot of hair. I see you went back to blonde. You honestly look fabulous either way. That's not fair!!🤣💜
Thanks Felicia. Hope you're ok xxx
Oh I can identify!
Hi Gemma please can you tell me what you use at the end to make your hair look so smooth ? 😊
Oh i also dry my hair the same way 😊😉
Hi Gemma, thank you for great video and for me so right on time 😊😄 just a short question: do you think the products mattify ( I am sorry, is it an English word 😅😬 do you think it takes away the shine of the hair and make the hair appear matt?) As I have dark hair dry shampoos or volume sprays usually take away the shine and could voluminous but very matt and dry…thank you so much 😊🌸🌺✨🙋🏻♀️
Here’s what I’m loving for volume: Living Proof Full thickening mousse and Kenra dry volume blast( this stuff works!!!) I have curly hair, but lately Ive been doing a blow out- those products work for my curly or straight hair♥️
I'm going gray 🤗 cold turkey Lol nearly 8 months in!
All I could think while watching this was, WOW your natural hair color is gorgeous! 😉
I don't think I truly know what my natural hair colour is... I started going grey at 16 xxx
That root fuzz is definitely "functional frizz!"
I know your pain with fine limp hair. I live in the extremely humid South USA. The battle for volume and lift is always a struggle because as soon as I find a product, it is discontinued. I think you should try The Wave Maker Texturizing Spray by Cake Beauty. It is a line made in Canada. It it absolutely the best. Even better, you can find it under $15 USD. I only use it for lift and volume. Hair like ours just cannot do waves if you are planning to go outside. However, my hair does not sit flat with this and it last for 2-3 days which is a miracle in our humidity. I am over 60, so I have been fighting this hair longer than you. I rarely write comments. I have used the products in your video. This foaming spray rocks them! We fine limp hair victims have to look out for each other.
Southern Belle just went straight into my cart.. I have the same texture only mid-back length. I’ve been debating for years whether to cut because it just seems to get flatter and thinner and oilier faster the older I get. Yours looks so much easier to manage. 😅
I'm growing mine a little...but you can guarantee as soon as it gets to a nice length I'll have a great idea to cut it all off again. Haha! xxx
@@PamperedWolf My poor hair stylist.. the tangles. I feel like apologizing every time I go in. 😂
Yesss..👏🏽
You have no worries that most of us will go out and buy the Dyson device because most of us can not afford it or would buy it if we could afford because of the ridiculous price.
I’ve got a lot of hair but extremely oily.for my whole life it’s needed washed every morning as it looks like an emptied chip pan. I tried dry shampoo but itch plus my hairdresser said it’s so bad for my hair and scalp so I’m back to square one to the point Iv cancelled nights out based on my hair x
I have had issues with the root cover up. If you look at the bathroom countertop after spraying, there are little dots of hair color that show up on the counter. I have to wear a towel over my shoulders or little dots of color end up on my shirt, And I just do a quick spritz with the spray on the top of my part. Go figure!
I have fine hair too and keeping volume for days does not work for me. I have to wash my hair every day for having this fluffy, fresh feeling.
What helps me for keeping volume at my roots is teasing the hair right underneath the hair on top.
I will for sure try the mousse though.
“With a stick”!! I can’t stop laughing 🤣🤣 I’m in the same fight
Where can I buy the mousse?
Hi Everyone, have you bought recently the Southern Belle Volume-Boosting Root Lifter (218g)? It's out of stock in Harrods and I couldn't find it anywhere else :( Thank you :(
How fast your scalp gets oily and how often u need to wash your hair ? Thank u
I just can't blow dry my hair in every direction.... my scalp hurts like hell when I do it that way... so I just resigned myself to have flat hair :(
Shampoo?
I have really fine flat hair, oily 12hrs after washing. A lot of dry shampoos make my scalp itch, any recommendations?
have you ever considered a few layers to give lift? My hair is thinner than yours. I have about 10 strands that could be layered.
What shampoo Amy conditioner do you use?
I use olaplex xxx
Hmmm putting dry shampoo after drying your hair i don't know I personally wouldn't necessarily recommend it because surten dry shampoos can irritate the scalp at least for me it does it gives me itchy scalp. And dry shampoos can be harmful for people with scalp conditions.
My hairdresser recommends it, but if you have a scalp condition you have to be careful with all hair products x
I have the same hair
And now menopause has made it flatter and thinner
What shampoos would u recommend?
I use olaplex xxx
I have the same hair...STILL at the age of 65!! My issue is, once I go to bed, it get up to "What the heck happen Hair"....how do you keep it nice after a night of sleep?
I sleep on a silk pillowcase, but don't do anything else xxx
