This stuff is magic in a bottle. It’s not a dry shampoo, but a texturizing formula that soaks up oils that can weigh your hair down to help give you tons of volume. "Spray where you want volume" is what the instructions say, and that's all you have to do for a full-hair look.

2. OUAI HAIR CARE Volume Spray

Want to build up body without the weight? This lightweight formula lifts and volumizes while adding healthy shine. It’s made with hibiscus extract to soften and smooth, and panthenol to condition and protect. Simply spritz and comb through damp hair before styling.

3. SEXY HAIR Root Pump Volumizing Spray Mousse

All the benefits of a mousse in the convenience of a spray, this long-lasting product supports a plethora of hairstyles with its flexible, medium hold. Plus, it’s humidity-resistant (great for frizz-prone hair) and gives lift and fullness that lasts all day.

4. LIVING PROOF Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo

There's no wondering why Glamour presented a beauty award to this thickening conditioner. More than half of the people surveyed by Aveda claimed that the product reduced hair loss, thanks to active ingredients like naturally derived amino acids that help strengthen strands.

There's a reason ginseng and biotin are holy grails when it comes to hair care. Along with ginger, these ingredients assist with follicle support to help strengthen strands for less fallout and breakage. And because it’s free of harsh sulfates, this shampoo doesn't strip your hair while it cleanses.

OK, hear us out. Although this isn't an instant fix, this iconic multitasking oil can help strengthen your hair follicles over time to help with fallout. Rich in vitamin E and fatty acids, it can also help with breakage and lock in moisture. Use it sparingly for best results—a little goes a long way.
