Hairstyle

Pump up the volume with a side parting

At Anne Valérie Hash, powders and pastels are the colours of choice for the Spring-Summer 2013 collection. While these shades give the collection a nice romantic feel, the make-up and hairstyles are more glam’rock. Here’s a closer look at this trendy hairstyle that will boost your roots!
 
Tips on how to add volume at the roots. There are several ways of boosting the volume at the roots. The first is using shampoos or volumising products. For best results, leave the product on for a few minutes and massage your scalp before rinsing. When drying your hair, tilt your head down and lift your roots with your fingers. Finally, use styling products, especially fixing products. Applying a styling mousse to wet hair will give it texture and body. Then gently backcomb your hair at the roots to complete the style.
 
Pumping up the side parting. To create this hairstyle with its body-boosted roots and rock vibe, use a gel on wet hair. Start by creating a neat side parting to naturally boost the volume on your chosen side, then scoop a small amount of gel into your hands. Avoid using too much; this could leave your hair looking greasy. Then apply the gel so as to lift the front section of your hair. Once you’re happy with the position of this section, take a hairdryer and finish with cool air to set the style.
