Fads end and styles evolve—but do our core ideals of beauty ever really change?
I’m thinking about Farah Fawcett-level volume. Or Cindy Crawford’s bombshell waves. Or Shakira’s gorgeously thick curls. Volume will always be in vogue!
Some people hit the genetic lottery and slide out of the womb with thick hair. Others have fine strands that, while easy to manage, never get naturally voluminous the way we’d like. I’m somewhere in the middle. I have thick, curly hair and when I don’t style it, it’s way more frizz and less face-framing waves.
Regardless of the hair texture you’re born with, we likely all need a little volume boost. That’s where things can get tricky. There are so many mousses, sprays, creams, and shampoos advertised to us that it’s tough to know which products work and which ones leave your hair feeling sticky and weighed down. Allow me to help you out!
The editors at SheFinds love Verb, a haircare brand that’s known for its salon-quality products at affordable prices. Verb caters to all hair types and textures, offering users a variety of products that address hydration, definition, curl, volume, and shine needs. You might already know about Verb thanks to their viral Ghost Oil—a travel-friendly hair oil designed to fight frizz and enhance shine—but I’m equally obsessed with their volume collection. When used together, the products are clinically proven to deliver 3x more volume after just one use, lasting up to 72 hours. Hello, bombshell!
Verb Volume Shampoo ($22)
Volume starts at the root, so you’ll want a super-cleansing shampoo that gets rid of all the gunk that weighs down hair. Verb’s Volume Shampoo works to gently cleanse strands, providing weightless lift and boosting body. Formulated with amaranth extract for fullness, hibiscus extract for nourishing, and biotin for strengthening, it’s the ideal blend of volume and hydration.
The shampoo has 4.9 stars and nearly 200 reviews on Verb’s website, with customers raving about how the Volume Shampoo lifted their roots—and these results only improved with regular usage. Some people even noticed that the shampoo cut down on frizz and made their hair look super glossy.
Verb Volume Conditioner ($22)
Some volume-boosting formulas can leave your hair dry and tangly, but Verb’s specialized conditioning formula is moisturizing and gentle on your strands.
Along with hibiscus extract, amaranth extract, and biotin, Verb’s Volume Conditioner is formulated with soy, vegetable keratin proteins, and hydrolyzed quinoa to keep your hair strong. Think snag-free, weightless detangling properties, and pro-level lift, no blowout required.
The Volume Conditioner has over 100 positive reviews, with one person raving, “This lightweight conditioner softened, detangled, and lifted my flat hair beautifully, leaving it noticeably fuller and bouncier.”
Verb Volume Dry Texture Spray ($22)
Forget crunchy, stiff strands; Dry texture sprays lift the roots and give you that natural lived-in look, like you woke up with full, voluminous hair.
Verb’s Volume Dry Texture Spray is right up there with the best of the bunch, transforming your hair to give you yummy, beach-y waves. Infused with sea salt and Vitamin B5, this award-winning, volumizing formula provides lived-in texture, fullness, grit, and hold.
Bonus: It’s great for reviving days-old waves for all those times you skipped hair washing.
Verb Volume Spray – New & Improved! ($22)
A key difference between dry texture spray and volume spray is that the former can be applied to dry hair, while the latter is intended for wet/damp hair.
When it comes to Verb’s Volume Spray, stylists recommend applying it to wet or towel-dried hair before blow drying. It works to amplify your hair for a full-bodied, all-over lift, and flexible finish that won’t fall flat.
Users love its weightless texture. One reviewer said, “It doesn’t weigh my hair down. Styling is much easier and faster now; I can use only a round brush when blow drying and no curling tools afterward.”
Use Verb’s entire volume collection together for best results, and wave goodbye to limp, lifeless strands forever!
