This guide will walk you through how to use IGK's KELTAIN Shocking Volume Spray to achieve unbelievable volume and body. We’ll cover everything from pre-application prep to troubleshooting common issues, ensuring you get the most out of this innovative product. Get ready to transform your hair!
Prerequisites:
Before you begin, understand that KELTAIN Shocking Volume Spray is designed to work best on clean, dry hair. While it can be used on slightly damp hair for a texturized look, the full volumizing effect is most noticeable when applied to dry strands. Consider your hair type and desired style – this spray excels at creating lift at the roots and overall body.
Tools You'll Need:
- IGK KELTAIN Shocking Volume Spray: The star of the show!
- Hair Dryer (Optional): For enhanced volume and setting the style.
- Wide-Tooth Comb or Brush: For detangling and distributing product evenly (optional).
- Sectioning Clips (Optional): To isolate sections of hair for targeted application.
- Mirror: Essential for seeing what you're doing!
- Hair Feels Stiff or Sticky: You've likely used too much product. Next time, use less spray and focus on applying it in short, controlled bursts. You can also try brushing through your hair with a soft-bristled brush to distribute the product more evenly.
- Volume Doesn't Last: Make sure your hair is completely dry before applying the spray. Also, consider using a holding hairspray after styling to prolong the volume. Environmental factors like humidity can also affect volume.
- Product Leaves a White Residue: This is often caused by improper shaking or over-application. Ensure you shake the can well before each use and apply the spray in short, controlled bursts. If you see a white residue, try brushing it out with a soft-bristled brush.
- Hair Feels Dry: While KELTAIN Shocking Volume Spray isn't inherently drying, excessive use can sometimes lead to a dry feeling. Consider using a hydrating hair mask or leave-in conditioner once a week to replenish moisture.
- No Volume at All: Ensure your hair is clean and dry before applying the spray. You may also need to experiment with different application techniques to find what works best for your hair type. Sectioning your hair and targeting the roots directly often yields the best results.
- Spray Clogs: This can happen if the nozzle gets clogged with product. Remove the nozzle and rinse it with warm water. Allow it to dry completely before reattaching it to the can.
Step-by-Step Guide:
1. Prepare Your Hair: Start with clean, dry hair. If you've just washed your hair, ensure it's thoroughly dried before proceeding. Using the spray on wet or excessively damp hair will dilute the product and reduce its effectiveness. If you prefer a slightly grittier, texturized look, you can apply it to *slightly* damp hair, but remember to use less product.
2. Detangle (Optional): If your hair is prone to tangling, gently detangle it with a wide-tooth comb or brush. This ensures even distribution of the spray and prevents snagging later on.
3. Shake Well: Before each application, shake the KELTAIN Shocking Volume Spray vigorously. This ensures the ingredients are properly mixed and the product is evenly dispensed.
4. Section Your Hair (Optional, Recommended for Targeted Volume): For maximum volume, especially at the roots, consider sectioning your hair. Use sectioning clips to divide your hair into manageable layers, starting at the nape of your neck. This allows you to target the roots directly.
5. Apply the Spray: Hold the can approximately 6-8 inches away from your hair. Spray the product directly at the roots in short, controlled bursts. Avoid spraying too much in one area, as this can make your hair feel stiff or sticky. If you're not sectioning, lift sections of your hair as you spray to reach the roots underneath.
6. Massage the Roots: Using your fingertips, gently massage the product into your roots. This helps to lift the hair and activate the volumizing ingredients. Focus on the areas where you want the most lift, such as the crown of your head.
7. Apply to Lengths (Optional, for Overall Body): If you desire overall body and texture throughout your hair, lightly mist the spray along the lengths of your hair. Again, use short, controlled bursts and avoid over-application.
8. Style as Desired: Once you've applied the spray, style your hair as desired. You can use your fingers to scrunch your hair for a more tousled look, or use a round brush and hairdryer to create a smooth, voluminous style.
9. Blow-Dry for Enhanced Volume (Recommended): For maximum volume and hold, use a hairdryer on a low to medium heat setting. Focus on lifting the roots as you dry your hair. You can use a round brush to lift and curl the roots for even more volume. Tipping your head upside down while blow-drying can also significantly increase volume.
10. Fine-Tune and Finish: Once your hair is dry and styled, take a step back and assess the overall look. If you need more volume in certain areas, you can lightly reapply the spray and massage it into the roots. Avoid over-applying, as this can lead to stiffness or residue. Finish with hairspray (optional) for extra hold.
