Get the height and volume that you want with these styling tips.

To complete this How-To you will need:

Styling gel or root lifter
Styling mousse
A blow dryer
A large, round brush
Small Velcro rollers or large hot rollers
A comb with small teeth or a boar bristle brush
Hair spray
A wide-toothed comb
Velcro rollers with metal inside
Styling gel or root lifter
Styling mousse
A blow dryer
A large, round brush
Small Velcro rollers or large hot rollers
A comb with small teeth or a boar bristle brush
Hair spray
A wide-toothed comb
Velcro rollers with metal inside

Step 1: Wash and towel-dry your hair. If it's thick, rub some styling gel in at the roots. If it's fine, use a root lifter instead, and just put a little mousse on the ends.

Step 2: Flip your hair upside down and blow it dry using a large, round brush.

Step 3: Add volume by putting your hair in small Velcro rollers, wrapping them away from your face on top and underneath on the sides. Aim a hot blow dryer at each roller for about 10 seconds. For thick hair, use large hot rollers.

Tip: Use Velcro rollers with metal inside; they conduct heat better.

Step 4: Remove the rollers after 20 to 30 minutes. If you used hot rollers, let your hair cool for 10 minutes before gently fluffing it with your fingers.

Step 5: For extra volume, tease the hair on the crown of your head in sections at the roots. Spritz a section with hairspray; then backcomb it using a comb with small teeth or a boar-bristle brush. Gently comb the hair from the top of your hair over the teased hair with a wide-toothed comb.

Step 6: Once you have your hair the way you want it, hold the style with a lot of hair spray.
