Volumizing Shampoo
  • krsn89
    Hey everyone!

    I know that volumizing shampoos are pretty much the same as clarifying shampoos as they have less conditioning + more surfactants. But, I've read that there's an ingredient in them that opens up the cuticle making hair appear fuller/thicker. Is this true? Are volumizing and clarifying shampoos *exactly* the same in formula or is there any ingredient that's actually *VOLUMIZING?*

    Thanks in advance!

    I think some of the volumizing conditioners leave a coating on hair, which actually does make the hair thicker. It also makes it limper, which pretty much defeats the purpose so I don't use them. Those types of volumizing conditioners may be considered "old school" now; it's been years since I tried a volumizing or thickening product and they may not even be on the market any more. I'd love to find one that works though.
