MANY people would love to have big, voluminous hair, but it can be hard to achieve if your locks are naturally flat on top.
However, one woman claims that a £7.99 spray from Boots has been a game-changer.

Iona, who posts under @sparklesandskin, said she swears by the John Frieda Volume Lift Root Boosting Spray to give her roots a boost.
She shared: “This spray is magic if you have no natural volume at the root like me, and your hair is always flat.
“My hair is always flat at the root, whether I’m wearing it straight or curly.”
She shared how she saturates the whole crown of her head, where her roots are usually flat.
The beauty lover added: “Then I dry it like normal, and I’ll show you the after.”
After blowdrying her hair, she showed her roots with more height and thickness than usual.
She continued: “Look how much volume it’s given me.
“It’s the John Frieda Volume Lift Root Boosting Spray, and it’s only £7.99. Seriously a must-have if you have flat hair.”
You can pick up the spray online and in stores, and it is “designed to protect against heat, boost hair and thicken strands for natural-looking volume.”
The Boots website states: “Towel dry and spray Luxurious Volume Blow-Dry Lotion onto hair, concentrating on roots, ensuring that undersection and surface are fully covered.
“Blow-dry hair as usual.
“For great body and lift, blow-dry hair upside down.”
Hundreds of people have liked Iona’s post, with many saying they love it too.

The high street is also jam-packed with hundreds of products that promise to give your hair that oomph – but do any of them actually work?
Desperate to give my thinning and patchy hairline a breather from the tight bun, Fabulous decided to put five volumising products to test.Out of the ones tested, Wella Shockwaves Volumising Hair Mousse proved to be the best.
How to make your hair look thicker
Fake thicker hair with these bulk-up tips from Trichologist Simone Thomas.
1. Try dry shampoo
“It doesn’t just make your hair look cleaner but thicker too,” says Simone.
“It leaves behind an invisible residue that makes your hair smoother, thicker and easier to style.”
2. Switch your parting
“Flipping it over to the opposite side of where it usually sits will give an instant volume boost,” she says.
3. Go for Balayage
“It adds dimension, resulting in fuller looking hair,” explains Simone.
“Leave the roots dark and the ends lighter and your hair will look thicker at the top.”
Remember to nourish the hair with a weekly hair mask to fight off colour damage.
