With Singapore’s humidity, it’s easy for your hair to get frizzy and out of control soon after you leave the house. Especially if you have gone for curls like SNSD’s Taeyeon or Krystal Jung, these curls can go limp more easily so gotta have the right products in your arsenal to maintain your hairstyle and your cool. Before you throw in the towel and go for the chop to beat the heat, from choosing the right hair products to the best technique to blow dry your locks for all-day volume, here’s how to get voluminous hair the right way.

7 Effective Tips To Beat The Humidity And Have Voluminous Hair
1. Use the right shampoo

Use the right shampoo to cleanse away impurities while boosting the volume of your hair. This gentle cleanser from PHS Hairscience help builds hair strength and claims to thickening the hair fibre. Formulated with Korean botanical essences and botanical stem cells, what we like is also how it nourishes the hair from the root; preventing and controlling hair fall at the same time.

2. Dry with a suitable towel and use a serum

Your post-shower mop is at its most vulnerable, which means you should never ride roughshod by rubbing it dry. A bath towel’s fuzzy fibres are superb for sloughing dead skin off your face and body, but the friction created by those very same fibres can result in frizz and split ends. The solution to your towel trouble? Pat gently with a clean cotton tee instead, and follow up with a follicle-fortifying serum from the midshaft down – we’ll recommend Kerastase’s Densifique Hair Youth Serum, $110 – for a buoyant bounce with none of the unwieldy weight. Simply spritz on damp hair, starting mid-length and paying extra care to the ends for easier styling!

3. Use a hair thickening cream or spray

To thicken and add volume to fine hair, use a thickening cream for longer-lasting body. This widely-reviewed and raved hair product from Living Proof contains a patented thickening molecule (PBAE), which creates thickening dots between hair strands so it feels like you have thicker hair. We like that it gives a light hold so there is some defense against the humidity here.

This formula is also color-safe and safe for chemically-treated hair.

 

4. Use a volumising heat protectant

Before you blow dry your hair, don’t forget to apply a heat protectant to protect your hair from the heat. This heat protectant from Ouai is a multi-tasker that adds heat protection, shine, and long-lasting memory to any look—curls and blowouts included. What it does is it memorizes the hair the hair style and extends it till the next wash. Volume for days? Yes, please!

5. Blast your roots

When using the hairdryer to blow dry your hair, make sure to aim the nozzle at the base of your hair roots. For maximum volume, tip your head down and direct the heat upwards from the roots.

6. Use a hairspray that doesn't weigh down the hair

Perfect for all hair types, this Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Body Builder hairspray gives a light hold while maintaining the hair movement and body. No dated crisp and hard hair with this hair product!

 

7. Bring along a dry shampoo

When the heat and humidity gets to you and you feel like your voluminous ‘do is facing serious contention, whip out a dry shampoo to refresh your locks and inject volume to the crown. Try this IGK First Class Charcoal Detox Dry Shampoo that helps to absorb the excess sebum and eliminate any hair odour.
