7 Easy Ways to Say Goodbye to Flat Hair In Less Than a Minutet

If you were born without shampoo-commercial-worthy voluminous locks, chances are you need a few tools in your hair product arsenal.

And no, we’re not talkin’ the root-boosting sprays that require wet hair, a blow-dryer, and a master’s degree in blowouts, but the volumizing sprays and powders that contain light-as-air polymers that attach to your dry hair to bulk it up, giving you the look and feel of insanely thick, va-va-voom hair. And because there are approximately 40,000 products on the market that claim to volumize your hair — but actually just leave it in a sticky, knotted mess — we cut through the bullshit for you and spelled out our favorites.
