There are so many products out there. I am a hairdresser. First of all make sure you have the right cut. You may need a few long layers. Then there are shampoos and conditioners to add volume. Amplify by Matrix is a popular one. Then it depends on the mousse and hairspray that you are using. Too much product ways it down and makes it sticky. I would ask your hairstylist. Don't be afraid to ask questions that is what we are there for. If the stylist doesn't want to listen then find a new one.
