The best way to get volume to fine, limp hair? Halo hair extensions. The second? Starting with a shampoo tailored to fine hair needs. Bodybuilding in the hair department is tough for fine hair because we need a lot more product to get limp roots and thin ends to stay voluminous. And with that comes more product buildup and weight to hair that already gets pretty oily.
That's why starting with a clean wash, along with some added thickening proteins is crucial for making thin hair look thick. Below are the fine hair shampoos that can do all that and a little more.
