One of the easiest ways to instantly revive your look is by giving your hair some extra volume. From the voluminous supermodel bob to Kim Kardashian's voluminous ponytail – it seems that lately, the bigger the hair, the better. With the reemergence of big, bouncy hairstyles, we expect to be seeing a lot more '90s-inspired looks that have that extra oomph to them.
Bubble hair is currently trending and is a look that embraces show-stopping volume throughout the entire head of hair. As hairstylist Syd Hayes explained to Glamour, "When it comes to bubble hair, it's all about adding width and height, creating the illusion of fullness and thicker locks." Videos tagged under "hair volume" on TikTok have almost 128 million views and counting at the time of writing, proving that thick, billowing hair is here to stay. Fortunately, you can easily achieve this gorgeous style at home in just a few simple steps.
How to achieve the bubble hairstyle
To recreate this bubble look, use a blowout styling tool like the Amika thermal brush. This brush is the perfect Dyson Airwrap alternative for a much smaller price tag and will give you the same beautiful, bouncy results.
If you're short on time and need a quick hack to add that extra flair to your hair, flip your head upside down and spray your roots with texturizing or volumizing spray. When you flip your hair back, you'll have gorgeous bouncy locks. Although you can try this technique on any hair type, this hack works best for those with curly hair that want to achieve more height and volume in minutes. Another way to achieve the bubble hairstyle is by adding layers to your haircut. Layers remove weight and add tons of volume so the next time you're at the salon, ask for a layered cut with sweeping or face-framing bangs.
Products to help you get more volume
If you don't have naturally thick, voluminous hair, that doesn't mean you can't copy this trendy look. If you struggle with thin or fine hair that always seems to fall flat, start with your haircare routine to get the most out of your tresses. Cleanse your hair with a volumizing shampoo and conditioning duo to help you effortlessly achieve the bubble look. We recommend the Moroccanoil Extra Volume Shampoo and the Extra Volume Conditioner duo. These two products are formulated to target fine, flat hair and will add body and shine as well.
Before styling your hair, we recommend using Briogeo's Blossom & Blossom Ginseng and Biotin Hair Volumizing Spray. This spray is perfect if you're trying to create lift by flipping your hair — just spray it to your roots to give you that extra bounce. Spray this product over your hair before using styling tools like a blowdryer, straightener, or thermal brush to help lock in the added height and volume.
