Hair volumizers are used to temporarily add volume, body, and shine to thin or flat hair. Hair volumizers are used by both men and women. Men turn to hair volumizers to make their hair look denser. Volumizers come in many forms such as shampoos, conditioners, sprays, pomades, and lotions.
Hair volumizers contain humectants, which work by attracting moisture from the surrounding areas to the hair strand, thereby swelling the hair and making it look thicker. Various polymers present in the volumizer coat the hair strand, making it look thicker and shiny.
