VOLOOMPetite 1” Inch Professional Volumizing Ceramic Flat Iron - Hair Volumizer & Styling Tool with Adjustable Temp & Auto Shut-Off for Lasting Volume for Medium or Fine Hair - Heat Resistant Case

I have never been able to get the volume I would like in my hair, and any bit I did, it took a lot of damaging products and would just fall after a couple of hours. My hair started thinning and looking dull and dry. I have tried everything! I had seen this in some YouTube videos and with little hope ordered one. All I can say is I wish I ordered it sooner! Not only has it completely fixed my volume and styling problems, my hair has gotten healthier! I am able to use moisturizing shampoos and conditioners, heat protectant, and a few other things that improve the health of my hair. All things that I would never dare use before because it would make my hair too heavy and impossible to style. It’s so nice to be able to style my hair in the morning, take a nap, work outside, exercise and be able to go out in the evening without having to do anything more than run a brush through my hair. It looks as good as it did when I first styled it! It’s very easy to use especially if you just watch a couple of videos. But if you can flat iron your hair, you can use this! For all who have given up hope, and your hair health, give this a try!

For me, the key to success with the Rootie by Voluum instrument is: (The 1.5 inch was perfect for my mid-length hair, past the shoulders).1. 320 degrees is plenty hot enough. Any hotter, and you can damage your hair.2. I only use this tool 1-2 times a week. Any more and I think it would lead to damage.2. Do not "clamp" down hard and long. The goal here is not to "crimp" your hair. That's not the purpose of this tool.3. Only use it on the roots and on the "under" sections of your hair - never anywhere else.4. NEVER hold the hair between the clamping tool for longer than 2-3 seconds. Clamp it, open and remove the tool, and check the volume. If you think it's not enough, do it again for 2-3 seconds. But trust me, there will be more volume there than you think when you do this in several sections and then proceed to style - avoid using it on the thinnest, baby hairs near the face. I find those hairs are not strong enough to sustain the heat and they're harder to hide the clamp marks if you hold down too long/too hard.5. No matter how 'thin' you think your hair is, you always want to use this only on the roots UNDER the top layer of your hair, never on the outer layer. So, using a comb, fold a top section over, clamp the under section at the root, and release. Do the other side and the back, near the crown.That's it - for me, the whole thing takes less than 5 minutes, but it does create lift and volume. My hair is about two or three inches past my shoulders.Lastly, I use the following after-shower hair products: Aveda, Pure Abundance Style Prep, Aveda thickening tonic, and BB Don't Blow It Thick Hair Styler, (yes, I DO realize it's for people with thick hair. Buy it anyway. It's a miracle worker). I use all three of these on towel-dried hair, then dry it with my Dyson dryer. All of these things combined have been a game-changer for me (oh, and following the "Fine Hair Friends" group on Facebook - lots of great tips there).I do believe this product was worth the money for me.

I have been stalking this for a while, reading reviews, watching videos. I finally pulled the trigger. I was skeptical and initially thought it was a lot of $$$! Now I think it’s some of the best $$$ I’ve ever spent, for real. A little about me: 57 yo; lots of hair, but on the fine, slick side. My hair has never liked to hold a curl. at peri- and now post menopause, I’ve had the typical thinning on the top, crown, temples, and sides of head. I despise hair products except to smooth my ends and maybe a very find misting of hair spray to frame my face. . I find any “volumizing”” products to be snake oil. I cannot tolerate any root lifters or dry shampoo on my scalp. They cause itching. In addition, I can’t stand the feel of these products. They feel stiff and gritty, overall a dirty feeling. I’ve tried teasing, but without aforementioned product, it just won’t hold up. THIS tool works. It is very subtle, but just enough to give that illusion of a bit of fullness and volume. If one were to use the tool with any products, WOW! I suspect one could achieve crazy lift, but that’s not what I was after. I am simply thrilled with this tool. I have a slightly layered bob that is shoulder to clavicle length. I almost bought the Rootie size, but after watching many videos, I felt the Petite would be perfect, and it is. It’s just the right size. I’m of the age where I grew up in the 1980s with really BIG hair. lol. I think the current flat crown look is lovely on most/some, but with my particular features, plus my whole face starting to melt/sag with age, I want to detract from my face, not bring focus in on it. Again, I couldn’t be more thrilled! I love it.

Love it

Wow. I bought this product because I have fine and thinning hair. I've had a lot of hair loss on the top and sides. This product worked great. It really give the appearance of fuller thicker hair. Also, I super nice surprise is it helps to cover the cowlick at my crown (which was more pronounced due to hair loss. I will upload photos soon.

I’m seriously impressed with how well this tool works. It only takes 1–3 seconds to create visible volume at the roots, and the results last 2–3 days — it only goes flat after washing! It’s quick, easy, and makes such a difference in how my hair looks.I hesitated at first because it’s a bit pricey, but it’s truly worth it if you’re looking to invest in your hair long-term. I highly recommend everyone to go for it — your hair will thank you!
