10 Volumizing Products That Gives Quick All-Day Lift To Thin Hair

volumizing hair products

As a self-confessed thin hair girly, I'm constantly looking for products to give life and volume to my otherwise flat hair. It's the worst feeling in the world when you spend forever curling your hair and making the look lasts, only to have your hair go instantly flat after 30 minutes. I've been there many times before! So, after much trial and error, I've found products that really do work even if your hair is as flat and straight as mine (and trust me, it really is). Keep reading to see all of our picks that will keep your hair looking voluminous all week!

How can I get volume for my thin hair?

Djerf Avenue

If you're wondering how to get voluminous hair that lasts all day, then there are quite a few tips and tricks you can try to make sure that happens. I asked celebrity hairstylist Cody Renegar for advice, and he said that a great way to add volume is to use the right shampoo — this will go a long way! He also let me know that fine hair is susceptible to breakage, so it's important to take really good care of your hair and this will help it hold it's volume much better!

Another tip he gave me? Use a root-lifting spray before you're ready to blow dry your hair! It adds volume, body, and shine to fine hair while also serving as a heat protectant. So you protect your hair while giving it volume! Sign me up!

Lastly, he said you can always let your hair dry 80%, then when you're blow drying it, flip your head upside down and dry it this way. While upside down, aim the blow dryer at your roots to give it a nice lift that will last all day. I love this trick, and have been doing this for years! This move made me see a major difference in my (normally) very flat hair.

What are some products to add volume to thin hair?

Djerf Avenue Beauty Styling Mist

This has to be one of my favorite recent beauty products — I use it every time I do my hair. It's extremely versatile, whether it's spraying this on my natural hair to give some volume, or styling a blowout! When using a product like this, I like to flip my hair upside down and spray all over while scrunching my hair. This helps lock in the volume and keep my blow dry curls lasting all day. Another tip I've used is to pin my curls after curling them and spray this styling mist while they're cooling, then scrunch the hair when I've taken it out. Et voila! Perfect curls that last all day.

Amazon

Color WOW Dream Spray

One of my holy grail products is this Dream Spray from Color WOW. I've used it for years before I blow dry my hair with my Dyson Airwrap, and I've never had something be this effective and long lasting for me. I genuinely douse my hair in this every time I do my hair, because I love it so much. It really does work!

Sephora

Olaplex Voluminizing Dry Mist

This one gets serious bonus points from me for having a built-in heat protectant! That's major for me because I use heat on my hair quite a lot, so it really saves my hair while giving it bounce and volume! Grab this one at Sephora now!

Amazon

ColorWOW Xtra Large Voluminizer

Want EXTRA large curls with a lot of bounce and volume? This product from ColorWOW will definitely do just that. It gives you those larger-than-life Dolly Parton curls that you didn't even know you could have. I love using this before a blow-dry or before I use my curler, because it really glues my curls, and makes them stay all day!

Sephora

Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray

This Oribe texturing spray was recommended to me by different hair stylists many times over the years, because of how effective it is. It smells great, lasts all day, and gives your hair a bounce that it otherwise wouldn't have before. This one's a 10/10 from me!

Amazon

Kenra Volume Mousse

This is a firm hold mousse, and it really does this trick! This baby will hold your curls all day to give you the volume you need! For how strong it is, you would think that it was heavy, but it's actually incredibly lightweight and doesn't with your hair down at all!

Amazon

Kristin Ess Dry Texture Spray

Texture sprays are a great way to lock in more volume for your hair. I like to use them post-blow dry to add some natural-looking texture to my finished look. I usually flip my head upside down to give it even more volume as I spray. Then when you flip your hair back up, it lifts and stays in that position. Love this one!

Amazon

Paul Mitchell Extra Body Boost

This volumizing spray was made specifically for people with fine, thin hair to give extra volume that lasts all day. I like to spray it in my roots, and then clip them up so they hold in that position for a couple minutes. This adds a decent amount of extra lift!

Amazon

Ouai Fine Hair Conditioner

This is a fine hair conditioner that's meant to help boost volume and growth in your hair! It's made with keratin and great vitamins to help with fuller hair growth over time. I love Ouai, and have seriously noticed a different in my hair when using their products.

Amazon

It's A 10 Miracle Blow Dry Volumizer

I've used It's A 10 products since I was a little girl — they've always been my mom's favorite, and now they're mine! This product is a blow dry volumizer, intended to help keep your blow out looking full and voluminous. My blowouts usually fall out almost instantly, but when I use this product, it really helps lock them in to stay all day.

Trader Joe's

The beauty aisle at Trader Joe's is not one I typically ever stop by, but as of late, the internet has totally convinced me to start shopping for Trader Joe’s beauty products. I was scouring the Trader Joe’s subreddit (as I love to do) and landed on a thread that was all about the grocer’s best beauty picks.

If you didn’t know by now, TJ’s sells everything from serums to hair care! Plus, oftentimes, they’re significantly cheaper than high-end name brands – for around the same formulas and quality.

Below, find 10 of the best Trader Joe’s beauty products recommended by die-hard shoppers!

Trader Joe's

1. Retinol Night Serum

Retinol can be a bit daunting when it comes to skincare, especially if you're a first-time user. This TJ's formula only contains 0.3% retinol, so it's fairly gentle. One expert Redditor swears by this $10 bottle:

“After working in a dermatology office, I swear by their retinol serum," they wrote. "It’s very similar to the $70 0.3% serum we sold. Also their triple antioxidant serum looks exactly like the one we sold for over $100. Luxury really is an illusion.”

Trader Joe's

2. Ultra Hydrating Gel Moisturizer

Trader Joe's tapped their "favorite" high-end skincare producer to create this $9 pot of gel moisturizer. It's "packed" with aloe leaf juice as well as green tea, birch leaf, and milk thistle extracts to help soothe the skin, while "holy grail" ingredients like sodium hyaluronate help to truly lock in moisture.

Several Redditors compared this affordable TJ's formula to expensive alternatives like the Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Moisturizer ($58) and the Biossance Balancing Gel Moisturizer ($54). 👀

Trader Joe's

3. Daily Facial Sunscreen

This SPF got endless praise on Reddit. Its formula is far from "thick" and "sticky" – that is, according to Trader Joe's. It's translucent, oil-free, fragrance-free (sensitive skin-havers rejoice!), absorbs quickly, and leaves a silky matte finish. Oh, and it's only $9. Sounds perfect, right? Here's what shoppers have to say:

"I love it and I have gone two very hot summers without getting a sunburn!” one person said.

“A lot of sunscreen leaves a weird white cast on my (darker) skin but this one is perfect,” another noted.

“I've been using this for like a decade," one more user wrote. "The SPF 15 isn't enough if I'm going to be in the sun all day, but for office days it's perfect. I have sensitive skin and it doesn't break me out.”

Amazon

4. 100% Pure Jojoba Oil

Someone noted that this jojoba oil "takes off waterproof mascara like nobody's business.” I love to hear it!

Trader Joe's jojoba oil is super versatile, too. You can easily use it as both a cleanser and moisturizer: cleanse clogged pores, remove makeup, and moisturize your hair and scalp with just a few drops! Since a little goes a long way, I'd say $15 a bottle is well worth it.

Trader Joe's

5. Ultra Moisturizing Hand Cream

Trader Joe's Ultra Moisturizing Hand Cream is notorious for being a dupe of L’Occitane's Shea Butter Hand Cream. One Redditor noted that it easily compares in terms of the formula: TJ's version also boasts 20% pure shea butter and coconut oil to nourish dry skin. They also highlighted the fact that "the scent for the basic versions is identical.”

While L’Occitane's hand cream costs $30, TJ's tube is only $5. A steal!

“The hand cream is so good!" another user said. "I have a tube in my car, in my bag, at my office, etc.”

Trader Joe's

6. Supreme Hydrating Eye Cream

Trader Joe's sells eye cream?! Okay, now I need to go. TJ's notes that this $6 tube contains many "sought-after" ingredients like hydrolyzed marine collagen, coenzyme Q10, Manuka honey, hibiscus extract, and almond, argan, rosehip, and marula seed oils to soften and soothe the under eye area. It's also supposed to be extra-rich and creamy without weighing your skin down!

A couple Redditors couldn't say enough good things about it:

“I can’t praise the eye cream enough. It’s very moisturizing and does a fantastic job keeping my eye area hydrated in the dry air," one person said. "I’m 35 and I have very little wrinkles, I use it twice a day. I’ve used very high end eye creams before and while yes they were nice, I feel like TJ’s one does the job for me at this age.”

“My skin is so dry that my eyelids get flaky often, this helps more than anything else by far," another commented. "Sometimes I use it on my whole face when it’s really sensitive.”

Trader Joe's

7. Cleansing + Conditioning Hair Wash

“The Cleansing + Conditioning Hair Wash is the GOAT for my hair!" one Reddit user wrote. "I used to buy expensive cleansing conditioners and the TJ’s one is honestly way better (at least for my hair!)... it makes my hair super soft and healthy feeling but I don’t get super greasy!”

This $5 product replaces the need for a two-step hair care routine (AKA shampoo and conditioner) by combining both of 'em. It's made without detergents, sulfates, parabens, or silicones, so your hair's natural oils and moisture are not lost. It's essentially a co-wash, which can help you cut down on how often you need to wash your hair, all while hydrating dry strands and taming frizz!

Trader Joe's

8. Hyaluronic Moisture Boost Serum

I am a ride-or-die fan of The Ordinary's hyaluronic acid serum – it always adds that extra boost of hydration to my dry winter skin and never irritates it, either. Based on Trader Joe's shopper's recommendations, I'm gonna have to try their similar $9 serum out ASAP.

One shopper said it's "light and hydrating. I have dry skin and it really makes a difference.”

Another user shared that they "use it every morning and night after [they've] washed [their] face.”

TJ's says this formula is water-based, unscented, never tested on animals, and non-comedogenic. In addition to moisturizing hyaluronic acid, it includes 1% sodium hyaluronate, which can penetrate the skin even deeper to provide much-needed moisture.

Trader Joe's

9. Brazil Nut Body Butter

Fan of the Sol De Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream's scent and nourishing effect, but not the nearly-$50 price tag? Trader Joe's famed Brazil Nut Body Butter seems to measure up pretty well for a mere fraction of the price. The tub of body butter itself is typically a seasonal item, but you can still snag it now in this delicious-smelling body care trio for $13.

TJ's fans are nuts for this product (pun fully intended):

“Brazil Nut body butter is one of the best body lotions I’ve ever used,” someone said.

“Brazil nut body wash and butter body are amazing!" one person wrote. "I bought like 4 tubs of the body butter.”

“Yes. It smells amazing and the texture is fantastic,” another user agreed.

“I still have two full tubs in my stash to hold me over until whenever the next seasonal body butter is available :),” one more Redditor shared. Yep, I'm grabbin' this one ASAP.

Trader Joe's

10. Marula Facial Oil

Marula oil offers insane hydration to dry skin. It also has antioxidant properties that can help even out your skin's tone and texture! While brands like Credo Beauty and Drunk Elephant sell similar marula oil formulas for $55+, TJ's version goes for $7 a pop.

The grocer says it's "light-textured and not greasy," which can definitely be hard to find in a skincare oil.

“The $7 marula oil is SO AMAZING I will never buy the Drunk Elephant stuff again even though I love that brand," one user offered.

“Recently started using the marula oil after using my (non TJ, don't love theirs) retinol and I feel like it has been a huge game changer and has given me a great glow," another person said.

Eva Reid was born special because she physically can't feel pain. Her existence is a phenomenon that people can't get enough of, especially her scientist husband Dr. Nate Reid and journalist Anna Tate. Yet, Eva's death rattles her community and questions about what happened begin flying.

This plunges Anna in a sea of obsession as she works tirelessly to figure out everything she can about Eva's life. She realizes Eva was not only on her way to have a flourishing career as a psychotherapist, but her marriage was far from perfect considering Eva was a former patient of Dr. Reid.

When Dr. Reid decides to dedicate a book to Eva, Anna offers her services to help him complete it so she can learn the truth. Yet, she may be placing herself in harm's way.

1923 fans are excited for season 2 for a variety of reasons. Not only does it promise to answer our biggest questions from the end of season 1, but I can't wait to see Jacob and Cara Dutton (Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren) totally kick Banner Creighton's butt. They're waiting for Spencer (Brandon Sklenar) to return to Montana to help them, and the new 1923 season 2 trailer proves there's literally nobody else who can do the job. Not that I had any doubt.

Here's what to expect from 1923 season 2 (aside from a super hot Brandon Sklenar).

The new '1923' season 2 trailer shows off Spencer's journey — and Alex's.

So far, Paramount's been teasing Spencer's journey across the country to reach his family, but this is the best look we've gotten at just how difficult his travels are. Not only is he making his way across state lines with no car and no horse, he's on his own AND he's racing against time as the Duttons fight off Banner and Whitfield at the ranch. I am STRESSED, y'all. (Although I have to admit, he looks dang good doing it.)

We finally get a glimpse of what Alex's next chapter looks like too, as she's left alone on the ship after Spencer gets kicked off. Storms are to be expected, but based on the figure who grabs her from behind, it looks like she could be in some serious danger from a fellow passenger. But even the sketchiest of situations isn't stopping this woman from finding Spencer again.

Every moment matters because in '1923,' "everything has meaning."

“Taylor [Sheridan] called us and said, ‘You have to look at every scene and imagine that it could be the most important scene of the episode, even if it’s just you walking from point A to point B,'” actress Julia Schlaepfer told The Hollywood Reporterin May 2023. “Everything has meaning.”

“I would love for Alex to make it to the ranch and meet the family,” she continued. “I hope we get to see some of her own strength come out now that she’s on her own. I want to meet the Dutton women. I think that that would be a lot of fun — and Teonna, we all want to meet Teonna.”

Every moment, and every relationship, makes 1923 stand out against this year's other TV shows, and Brandon Sklenar is "confident" that 1923 season 2 "is going to be absolutely incredible," he told Forbes. “The tone shifts a lot and it’s definitely a bit darker. It’s very beautiful.”

1923 season 2 premieres on Paramount+ February 16 and stars Julia Schlaepfer, Harrison Ford, Helen Mirren, Brandon Sklenar, Michelle Randolph, Darren Mann, Jerome Flynn, Aminah Nieves, and Isabel May. Stay tuned for the latest news!

I can't wait to reunite with the Duttons — and for Spencer and Alex to reunite with each other. Duh! Check out Every Character Returning For 1923 Season 2 while you wait for the new episodes.
