Raise the Volume!

I thought for my first post I would start with my biggest bugbear. Hair products.The list of my moans and groans are quite endless - too flat, too dry, too straight, too frizzy or too greasy. By far, the best brand that I have found is Aveda. I've fallen in love with this brand, and I don't see that changing any time soon! Aveda cater for all hair types. I myself have fine curly/wavy hair, that with the touch of the lovely London air, flops and flattens, and is seriously lack luster by the end of the day. If you're looking for a 3 step hair care system, the Invati range really is great. It can't be called cheap, but if it's volume you're looking for, you've found the right products. The shampoo in this range cleanses, reduces breakage and exfoliates at the root which is supposed to promote hair growth. In all honesty after a month of using this range, I've found all of the above to be true. The conditioner isn't particularly moisturising, but for thin-ish hair, it's lightweight and does the job. If you want to push the boat out and go for the three step then the scalp revitalizer will give you volume at the root. I tend to go against this three step rule and use the Pure abundance style prep instead - this is another firm favourite of mine. You spray this onto towel dried hair (although you can use it on dry hair as well), and once styled, I really noticed that my hair felt thicker and with a lot more volume. It didn't weigh my hair down, cause any greasiness, and can even be used during the day for that extra bit of oomph.
