Hair products for medium-thin lifeless hair?
I'm cutting my hair like this tomorrow:

and I've always had a problem with volume and body. I know cutting my hair this short will mean I NEED some sort of volume, otherwise I might as well look like I got a bowl cut.
I've tried Tresemme, and it's not really doing well. I also have a huge round brush, doesn't do the trick either. Neither does blow drying, with all this combined.
Should I get shampoos and conditioners instead for volumizing/body/shine, etc. instead of the mousse I've been using (Tresemme)?

Pantene really works for me. I usually just put mousse in my wet hair and then blow dry my hair with my head upside down. My hair will be super poofy (to the extreme) but then it will die down a little after a few minutes and it gives it the perfect volume :) sometimes I will even take my straightener (it needs to have rounded edges) and just curl the roots so its poofier. you can also tease the hair to give it height and volume, but if you do that too much, it can damage the hair. oh and lots of hairspray!!

I'm a cosmetologist and I literally have the same issues with my hair! It's thin and pin straight so to get it what I want it to do takes a lot work.
If you want to achieve volume you need to tease your hair, its the only thing that truly works. You can always use products, they don't hurt, but too much is not good. The only volume mousse I like is called Vavoom by Matrix. It is a professional product but it's worth the extra cash.
You can definitely invest in some volume shampoo and conditioner if you want. Pantene has a good one specifically for volume.
So the key is teasing, and if your not sure how to do it properly, look it up on you tube. There are a lot of instructions on how to do it. So try out the Pantene, he Matrix mousse if you can get it and tease away!
Hope this helps
Good luck!
