Previous steps to prepare the hair
Hair wash
Believe it or not, it is one of the first steps to take. Washing your hair prepares it to achieve the desired effect. For this, it is always advisable to opt for a volume shampoo. Similarly, purifying shampoos can also be a good solution. Once the hair is washed, nothing like applying a little conditioner, but also that it is indicated for hair with volume.
Drying hair with foam
When it comes to drying your hair, nothing like apply a little foam and blow dry. Yes, always with a little caution because we know that it can damage the hair much more than we think. You can start at the root areas and work your way to the ends. Of course, put your head down, since with this gesture we will also get more volume.
How to card hair?
Once we have the hair prepared, we will move on to the carding itself. We are going to give a little volume in the upper area, which is the most common for this. In what way will we do it?
- You need a barbed comb not very wide to card hair. Although many people also opt for a small, rounded brush.
- We are taking strand by strand. We lift it and place the comb in the part of the root and inside it. It will be there where we start our carding.
- You will comb that area up and down until get the necessary volume. But as we say, only in the root part.
- Once carded, we will apply a little lacquer on the root and we will go to the next strand.
- When we have all the carded upper part, or the one you have chosen, it is time to place the strands back and comb our hair as usual, but very lightly so that they do not fall off.
Hairstyles with combed hair
There are several hairstyles that we can do with combed hair. If you have carded the upper part of it, then you can comb it back, apply a little gel on the sides of the head and let the wet effect be the protagonist. On the other hand, you can make a side ponytail. Without a doubt, it is another of the basic hairstyles that do not go out of style. A bit of volume at the top and a side ponytail or braid will be your best weapons.
Similarly, semi-collected they are a good base. We already have the upper part with volume, so, we only have to collect these strands at the back and leave the rest of the hair loose. Of course, for a more important and elegant event, nothing like a picked up with volume. A kind of bow will also be basic to accompany it with a carding as we mentioned. Of course, you can finish a style like that with a side or middle bangs. Which one do you decide for?
