Begin by washing hair with a body-building shampoo. When conditioning, don't apply conditioner at the scalp, conditioner can weigh hair down. Apply conditioner starting at an inch down the hair strands.
With head down, begin blow drying hair from the roots outward while using fingers to lift hair. It is best to use a hair dryer with a diffuser attachment.
While hair is still damp, apply a small amount of mousse or gel at the roots. Continue drying hair while lifting it away from the scalp with a round brush or large-toothed comb. When hair is completely dry, use fingers to gently comb and style.
Set your style with a little volumizing hair spray (amazon.com) or style freeze. Don't use to many styling products, like conditioner, they can weigh hair down.
If hair begins to go flat through the day, mist hair with a water and table salt mixture, lift and scrunch.
