    Getting a layered haircut can increase volume in your hair. Massaging the scalp also helps hair look fuller. Try switching up your part for instant volume. Using a volumizing shampoo can also be very effective.

    It says to wash on a daily basis, but another source says to not wash too much because it can dry out the scalp. Any help?
    Community Answer
    Washing your hair every day will dry out your scalp, so I recommend you wash it every other day or every three days. But if your hair gets oily fast, it is OK to wash daily.
