James Blaquiere returns with another helpful video for all the aspiring hairstylist viewers on VideoJug. Today, he teaches some tips for styling fine hair into looking like it has some major volume.
I'm going to show how to do hairstyles for fine hair. Now, with fine hair, it's all about getting as much body as possible out of it before you even start. So, what you could do with your hair is either go with a heated roller set, or to just curl the hair with either tongs or straightening irons.
See the previous videos that we've to show you how to do that. So that's what you do first, to prep the hair, so it's all got a bit of curl, and a bit more body into it. It just makes the hair a lot thicker and easier to manage and move around when you're putting it up.
So, if I show you these sections that I've just put these into, so section ear to ear, and put in your parting in where you'd like it to be, section that so that's all clean away. Then, on the top on the crown, from where you sectioned, about two-and-a-half inch section wide, in depth, and then bring that around and pin that up out of the way, you're going to use that in a moment. Section another little bit here at the bottom, you can see just the bottom section of hair there.
That's, you know, an inch to an inch-and-a-half of the hair just tucked away. Now, what you're going to do, after you've put your hair into quite a grip ponytail through there now, we're going to use a doughnut, now that's one of these. Now, with the doughnut, you place the ponytail through the doughnut, like so.
Now, what this is going to do is just really, really make the hair a lot bigger and fuller. We're going to cover the doughnut, and it's just going to give the impression that there's a lot more hair there than there really is. Backcomb, so holding the ends of the hair here, and backcomb like so.
Right, so after you've gone through and sort of just gently backcombed your ponytail, it's really puffed out now, as you can see, you look like you've sort of about three times, four times the amount of hair that we began with. So this is just in a section, don't worry if it looks messy, this is all going to get covered up, but this is just to cover your doughnut now, to give the illusion of it being thicker hair. So you just repeat the process all the way around, until the doughnut's covered.
Again, if you'd just tilt your head slightly back? Now, if you put your head slightly back, there you can see you're not going to get this sort of sagging at the bottom. It's going to be just a little bit tighter. Don't want it to be really tight, but you certainly don't want that sag bit coming back later on when you're finishing your look, because it will kind of be a bit too late for that.
So, as long as the head's slightly back when you do this bit, and then open your pin, and grip that right into the base. Right, now, we're coming on to this section of the hair, on the top, the section that you left out, ear to ear. Hold it up at this angle, down halfway, and down to the root.
This section is now just about placing it around the doughnut that you've already placed in there. So, open up your pin, and your doughnut can sort of act as a butt of a pin cushion if you like. Put that in, you haven't got to worry about it hurting the scalp or anything, you know, do what you like with that now, that's a good base.
So, again, we're going to repeat that in this side here, with that section, and we're going to repeat those sections until you get to here where you've levelled it off ear to ear, about another three, another four sections. So, after you've finished taking that section to the top here, and pinned it all back slightly, gently backcombing, just a little bit, and then gripping into the base of the doughnut, I've done exactly the same on this side up to where the parting was, so I'm just going to do this last section here for you, just really gently because you don't want to pull the curl out. Finally, pull the last sort of section right there at the front, especially if it's been shaped around the face, the haircut.
It won't be quite long enough to pin into the ba
