If you’re new around here: I’m the Fine Hair Spokesperson for Marie Claire. I have a decent amount of hair, but each strand is itty-bitty and my volume is pretty much non-existent. As such, I’ve made it my life mission to discover the best shampoos and conditioners, styling products, mousses, and dry texturizers that give lift and body to fine hair so it doesn’t fall flat. One thing I’ve learned is that you should never, ever give yourself a blowout without using one of the best root lifters.
They come in a few different formulas—micro-fine sprays and mousses being the top two. And while all of them will focus on lifting, most come with other benefits, too. Some offer heat protection and can be used throughout the body of your hair, others make my hair feel like it doubled in thickness, and a handful even offer protection against humidity. I’ve rounded up my favorites, spanning a range of price points, ahead.
