To use hair spray to add volume to the hair, a woman must implement a little hair gymnastics and use a light-hold hair spray. Strong-hold hair sprays can make the hair appear stiff. This is why light-hold sprays are preferred for a natural look. Hair gymnastics is simply done by flipping the head upside down. Gravity is used to help the hair stand upright, relative to the position of the scalp. With your head hanging downwards, use the hair spray at the roots of the hair. Then, blow dry the roots to maintain its volume. When your head is flipped back to its normal position, you might be shocked to find punk-looking hair. This is a temporary state. Using your fingers or a hair brush, the hair can be arranged back to a more normal, yet highly volumized style.
