I always struggled to get volume but found an easy way to get bouncy hair every time – I’m trolled for it but who cares
HAVING straight hair is both a blessing and a curse as you’ll always be able to step outside without worrying about frizz, but you’ll also struggle with volume.
This is exactly what Angelique deals with every day, but luckily the beauty whizz has found a fool proof way of getting bouncy tresses without much effort.
Taking to her TikTok account, the brunette beauty appeared with damp hair as she spread a dollop of mousse on her hands.
“I saw on TikTok that if you put mousse in your hair before you blow dry it you get three times the volume,” she explained while applying the product on her mane.
Angelique explained that you’re meant to start at the roots as this is where “you want the most volume”.
“I also saw that if you blow out your hair one way and then the other way you also get more volume,” she continued. “As you can tell, I struggle with volume.”
After doing a non-strategic dry of her hair, she then sectioned out the top with a round brush and started drying her mane from underneath.
Following this, she flipped her hair to one side as she said: “I realise this looks absolutely ridiculous but it’s so much more volume then what I normally get.”
@_angelique.terese then picked up a white plastic bag, which she said was full of rollers that her grandmother gifted to her.
“I’ve only tried rollers once and I didn’t have the right clip so it didn’t work,” she explained before getting to work with them again.
“If this works, I’m going to have Angelina Jolie hair,” she joked.
After adding several rollers around her hair, she waited for over two hours and returned with a full face of make-up to show the process of taking them out.
“The mousse gave me so much more volume than I normally get. Are you joking? Alter ego! The mousse trick 100 percent works. This is nuts,” she said as the video came to an end.
“I am in SHOCK,” she added in the caption.
While Angelique was clearly pleased with the results, she received a bit of backlash from trolls, who simply said she’s using the product correctly for the first time and that’s why it worked.
“Gen z had discovered mousse. I am old.” one person wrote, to which she responded: “Lol I knew it existed but I just learned how to use it for my hair type”.
Another said: “wait…when do people normally put in mousse? I thought everyone always puts it in before drying”.
Angelique responded: “I only found out recently!! I thought it was for curly hair”.
“The mousse trick… aka using the product for what it’s for,” another joked, while a fourth added: “my mum has been doing this since like 2001”.
