Add volume to your crown

If you’re dealing with second-day hair that tends to fall flat no matter how much you try to give it a lift, then this hairspray hack will come to the rescue. Divide your crown into two sections and tightly place large barrel rollers just under them. Lightly spritz on some hairspray and blast-dry the sections for a few seconds to lock in the style with heat. Take out the rollers and your crown has been lifted.

Boost your curls

Ever noticed how heat-styled curls tend to loosen within a few hours? It might have to do with the placement of your hairspray. Instead of holding the can on top of your hair, simply place it below. Stylists usually recommend tipping your head back and then spraying from the bottom up on your curls. Spraying the product at the top weighs the hair down and flattens it; while spraying it at the bottom adds volume and retains the hairstyle for longer.

Add more texture to your hair

If you want a little ‘messy hair, don’t care’ vibe (without looking like a mess), we recommend throwing in a texturising hairspray into your routine. Simply spritz a little bit of the product on a toothbrush and gently brush the hair from back to front for some texture that isn’t stiff or all over the place.

Volume and shine galore, Schwarzkopf OSiS+ Grip Hair Styling Mousse holds (it’s in the name) onto each and every hair strand, giving it the lift and gloss it needs. Formulated to heat-protect, boost volume, and add shine, this vegan hair mousse is made to last for hours, ensuring that your blowout stays put for a long period of time. It makes hair fuller, and bouncier, and even tames frizz for a sleeker and smoother look.

Extend the hold

Instead of applying hair mousse after styling your hair with a curling tong or wand, try applying it to dry hair. This will extend the hold time and will also prevent the crunchy feeling that mousses or hairsprays leave your hair with.

Keep accessories in place

Bobby pins are bae—they add a pop of colour and bling to any hairstyle. So keep them and all other hair accessories in place by spritzing some hairspray on them before you wear them. This will extend the grip and anchor your hairstyle for longer periods.

Get beachy waves, without any heat treatment

If you are one to steer clear from heat treatments, spray a little hairspray on damp strands and pull your hair into a braid, a bubble ponytail or a tight bun. In a few hours, pull your hair down and you’ll have some beachy waves that add texture without any heat.
