Fine hair can be a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, it’s usually luxuriously soft & silky. On the other hand, it can lack volume, be prone to breakage & split ends as well as oiliness, and struggle to hold a curl. If you’re one of the many people with fine hair, we have the solution for you.
As a busy mom, you’re always on-the-go, and styling your fine hair can seem like a luxury you just can’t afford. John Frieda has got you covered! Here are some quick and easy tips to help you make the most of your fine hair, even on the most chaotic of days.
Fine hair is characterised by its small diameter and low density. Meaning it is usually thinner and there is less of it. It can be straight, wavy, or curly, but it always lacks the thickness and volume of coarser hair types.
We recommend using lightweight, gentle products to avoid weighing your hair down. The Volume Lift range by John Frieda is especially designed for thin, fine hair. With Air-silk Technology, the volume boosting formula enhances hair’s natural volume, for fine hair that is naturally full and touchably soft.
Start with the Volume Lift Shampoo & Conditioner to gently cleanse and detangle fine hair without weighing it down.
The Root Lift Spray is a hair thickening spray, with heat protection, to boost hair from the roots to create lightweight lift and lasting volume.
The Thickening Mousse helps lift fine, flat hair for bouncy volume and plumps hair for a fuller look that’s soft to the touch.
Our lightweight hairspray holds your volume in place without weighing down your hair. For long-lasting hold & fullness.
Hints & tips to achieving a more voluminous style:
- Use heat protection when heat styling to prevent damage & thinning of hair
- Use a volumising shampoo and conditioner to add texture and body
- Try a dry shampoo to absorb excess oil and add volume in between washes
- Use a round brush while blow-drying to add volume and smoothness
- Be gentle when combing or brushing your hair as this could lead to damage or breakage and ultimately less volume

BabyYumYum FAQ’s: Fine Hair Care
What is the best way to add volume to fine hair without using too many products?
Look for lightweight, volumising formulas that won’t weigh your hair down (like John Frieda Volume Lift). Applying products just to the roots and using heat styling tools strategically can help enhance lift and body without product build-up.
How often should I wash fine hair?
Fine hair tends to get oily quickly, so washing every other day is often ideal. If it starts looking flat or greasy between washes, a volumising dry shampoo can refresh your look without stripping the scalp.
Are heat styling tools safe for fine hair?
Yes, but always use a heat protectant spray or mousse beforehand. Fine hair is more prone to damage and breakage, so it’s best to use tools at a lower temperature and limit their use.
Which type of haircut works best for fine hair?
Short to medium-length cuts, like bobs or pixie styles, work well. Adding layers can create the illusion of thickness and body. Avoid overly long styles, which can make hair appear limp.
How can I make my fine hair look thicker?
Use a root-lifting spray, thickening mousse, and style with a round brush to boost volume. Haircuts with texture and layering can also enhance fullness.
What’s the biggest mistake people with fine hair make?
Using heavy, moisturising products that can flatten fine strands. Choose lightweight or volume-boosting formulas and be mindful not to over-condition.
Can I colour or bleach my fine hair?
You can, but fine hair is more delicate and may respond poorly to harsh chemicals. Consider ammonia-free or semi-permanent colour options, and always follow up with nourishing treatments.
Is dry shampoo safe for regular use on fine hair?
Yes, but use it in moderation to avoid scalp build-up. It’s excellent for absorbing oil and adding body between washes but should be washed out regularly to maintain scalp health.
How do I prevent breakage in fine hair?
Be gentle when detangling, use a wide-tooth comb, avoid tight hairstyles, and consider using a microfibre towel or old t-shirt to dry your hair.
What’s the difference between fine and thin hair?
Fine hair refers to the texture (individual strand diameter), while thin hair relates to the density (how many hairs grow per square inch). You can have fine hair that’s dense or sparse.
