Mª José Llata, director of Llata ​​Carrera, comments on the publication Marie Claire, that humidity causes fine hair to lose volume. What the expert recommends is to use “specific products for fine hair” and follow an appropriate routine to avoid adding unnecessary weight.

It is clear that fine hair has its own needs, and something common is losing volume at the roots, and also showing frizzy lengths. Therefore, opting for hair with more body does not mean leaving aside hydration.

A root without volume can be perfectly combined with long curly hair. Therefore, opting for hair with more body does not mean leaving aside hydration. As explained to Vanitatis hairdresser María Roberts, “hair becomes frizzy because it absorbs water from the environment.” Therefore, it is essential to work on hydration from the middle to the ends of the hair so that it maintains the maximum possible hydration.

How to apply conditioner on fine hair

Many people with fine hair fear the use of conditioner and avoid including it in their hair routine. Experts point out that it is not so much about doing without it, but about knowing how to use it correctly. Llata ​​recommends doing it “always from the middle to the ends.” Thus, hydration is focused on the lengths and the roots are not overloaded, leaving them lighter and looser.

It is also important that the formulas of the products used for hair are not heavy. Frizz can lead us to add too much product at a time, and in the end the result is very heavy. Llata ​​advises avoiding “heavy ingredients, such as ointments and waxes.” Here it is best to check if these are specific products for fine hair and use the recommended amount. A good product can provide hydration and softness without weighing it down.
