How to Add Volume to Men's Hair

How to Add Volume to Men's Hair

Whether you’re a man starting to feel like your tresses are falling flat, were born with fewer strands, or just want a new look, the right products and styling techniques can help you pump up the volume. Jack Black has everything you need to add oomph to your hair. There are also a few things to avoid. How do men keep their hair voluminous all day? Let’s find out.

Best Volumizer for Thin Hair

Jack Black True Volume Hair Density Foam features a specially formulated combination of ingredients designed to strengthen hair and skin at the root, add volume, and make hair look and feel fuller. This easy-to-apply volumizing foam absorbs quickly without a crunchy residue, leaving hair soft, flexible, and naturally shiny.

Simply massage 1-2 pumps into clean, damp hair. Leave in and style as usual. It’s easy to use with other hair products for men. Key ingredients include:

  • Procapil™: Strengthens skin and hair around the root.
  • Aloe: Calms, soothes, and softens the skin.
  • Olive Leaf Extract: Rich in antioxidants to fight free radical damage.
  • Peppermint: Naturally energizing with cooling effects on skin.

What is Hair Volume?

Volume refers to several characteristics:

  1. The number of hairs (density) covering your scalp.
  2. The diameter of each strand.
  3. Resistance to split ends and breakage.
  4. Hair type — thick, curly hair naturally has more volume than straight strands.

Common Challenges Men Face in Achieving Voluminous Hair

Thin, fine, flat hair is the biggest challenge. Other setbacks include using heavy products, skipping trims, not washing frequently, and neglecting scalp health.

How to Add Volume to Men’s Hair

Wash and Condition Regularly

Wash regularly to remove buildup and oils. Condition only the ends.

Jack Black True Volume Thickening Shampoo removes oils and buildup while helping hair look thicker. Follow with Nourishing Hair and Scalp Conditioner, a moisturizing treatment that hydrates without weighing hair down.

Use Lightweight, Volumizing Styling Products

Avoid heavy products that weigh hair down. Jack Black Body Building Hair Gel is alcohol-free, flexible, and leaves no sticky residue.

If frizz is an issue, try Sleek Finish Texture Cream for flexible control and anti-frizz benefits.

Apply Products Correctly

Start with a dime-sized amount, distribute evenly, and avoid the roots to prevent flattening.

Be Mindful of Scalp Health

A healthy scalp leads to healthy hair. Try the Exfoliating Scalp Scrub + Shampoo to remove buildup and dead skin for stronger, fuller-looking hair.

Use a Blowdryer Occasionally

Apply product, then blow-dry with fingers or a brush in a lifting motion to create volume at the roots. Avoid overusing hot tools.

Change Your Haircut

Consult your barber or stylist. Layers or length adjustments can add volume while keeping a clean look.

Final Takeaway

Nailing volume may take practice, so experiment with products, techniques, and cuts. Jack Black has everything you need, from shampoos to the new Hair Density Foam.
