How to Create Lift at the Crown with
Styling Mist for Volume

Adding volume at the crown is one of the quickest ways to give your hair instant lift. But lasting crown lift takes more than a blow-dry—it starts with the right product. Our Styling Mist for Natural Hold and Volume is lightweight, hydrating, and specially designed to give your crown that salon-fresh bounce.

The secret to keeping lift at the crown is using a lightweight styling mist for volume—it delivers body without weighing your hair down.

For this style, I use Velcro rollers and Styling Mist for Volume. Velcro rollers are perfect for creating volume at the crown and my exclusive hair volumizer gives hair a natural hold with big results.

Add Volume at the Crown in 4 Easy Steps

1. Prep your Hair for Volume at the Crown

For extra body, always start with hydrated hair. Pairing Restore and Shine Masque with our Styling Mist for Volume creates the perfect balance of strength, shine, and lift.

Wash and condition your hair with the right shampoo and conditioner for your hair type. I treat hair with deep conditioner, Restore and Shine Hair Masque to give hair a moisture boost before styling.

After rinsing out the hair mask or conditioner, gently squeeze the excess water out of your hair with a towel. Hair should sill have some moisture but not be dripping wet.

2. Spritz for Volume at Crown

Flat crowns often come from products that weigh hair down. The secret is using a lightweight styling mist for volume that gives lift at the root without stiffness or residue.

Spritz our Styling Mist for Natural Hold and Volume directly onto damp hair at the crown. Aim at the roots where you want the lift to last. This ultra-fine spray coats hair evenly, boosting body while keeping strands soft, shiny, and touchable.

Unlike heavy hairsprays, our volumising mist works in harmony with your natural movement—it sets the foundation for rollers to create lift, then locks it in with flexible, long-lasting hold.

✨ Why you’ll love it:

  • Adds instant root lift without stickiness

  • Infused with pro-vitamin B5 and vitamin E to strengthen and hydrate

  • Lightweight formula that leaves no residue—just soft bounce and shine

👉 Pro tip: Focus the mist at the crown and hairline to frame your face with natural volume.

3. Velcro Volume at the Crown

Blow dry your hair, as usual, ensuring you don’t over-dry the hair. Your hair should still be warm and semi-dry when you apply the Velcro rollers.

Take a section of hair at the crown, no greater than half the width of the roller. Appy one roller at your crown and leave it in place.

Then take the second roller, putting it directly behind the first one.

The trick when applying Velcro rollers is to get as much tension as possible on the hair without pulling too hard at the roots. If you feel tension at the roots that means the roller is too tightly rolled.

Rollers and our Styling Mist work in harmony: the rollers shape your lift, while the mist locks it in with natural hold.

Rollers in place, leave them for 10 to 15 minutes until your hair cools. If you are in a hurry, you can use the hairdryer to give the hair a quick blast of cold air. However, leaving them to cool has the same effect.

4. Gently Does It

Once cooled, remove the rollers and enjoy instant, lasting crown volume. 

Gently remove the Velcro rollers and lightly comb or brush or use your fingers to push the hair in place. If you are using a brush be careful not to brush out the volume you’ve created.

For best results, finish with a final mist to keep the bounce all day.

I just love this product! After suffering a lifetime of fine, flat hair I have at last found something that totally does what is says on the bottle!
Anon
Brilliant. I don’t usually do reviews but I am so pleased with this. I have grey fine hair which I am growing into another style. This spray has kept my hair looking tidy and natural.
Clare
This mist is amazing, has natural hold without being claggy. It’s smells amazing too.
Ellen
I’m amazed that this product has made such a difference to my hair. I took it to my hairdresser and she loved it too. It detangles my hair and leaves it with a volume that lasts for a couple of days.
Katy
Oh my goodness! After one use, I didn’t recognise the feel of my hair as that of my own! The reviews are all accurate – this product is mind blowing! So much so that after only one use, I’ve ordered another two – one for each of my beloved sisters!
Rashpal
Was a little skeptical about this product but so glad I ordered it. It definitely lives up to what it says on the website. No frizz, soft silky hair with a great shine. I was suffering from very dry frizz hair due to dehydrated ends – I’ve only had it for three weeks and used it once a week and every time I use it I get asked what I use to get a great shine!
Karen
Beautiful product, smells great, I’ve been using it twice a week for a few weeks now and can see the difference already (as can my hairdresser), my hair is really shiny and in great condition.
Clare
This is the most amazing hair masque. I have used it for years and it makes the condition of my hair lovely, and smells wonderful.

Norris Ogario is founder and Creative Director of Ogario London. Developed in his London salon, the Ogario London haircare products reflect his belief that hydration is the key to fixing most hair problems. Hydrated hair can be styled with ease. Plus, hydration leaves hair shiny and healthy. Norris has over 35 years of hair know-how. With expertise in all hair types; from dry hair to fine or grey hair, from frizzy hair to damaged or bleached hair, curly hair and afro hair, Norris has created a healthy hair blog to share his expert advice.

I write about all aspects of healthy, shiny hair. From preventing frizzy hair to stopping split ends and styling bob hairstyles I share my experience of how to get the best from hair.

Whether I’m working with hair, writing about hair or developing hair care products I stay true to 3 principles.

1. Less is More

This is a principle I have adhered to all my hairdressing career and it gets the best results. I like to minimise the heat stress to hair from heated styling tools and take a simpler approach to styling. Over working the hair can leave it dry, damaged and flat. A simple approach is the best way to add volume to hair and keep hair looking and feeling smooth and shiny.

2. Hair needs Moisture

Moisture is the foundation of good hair care. Hair needs a routine of deep conditioning to stay frizz free and retain flexibility and strength. When it has moisture, hair elasticity is maintained, making hair easier to style.

3. Great Hair Care is Holistic

Holistic in the context of hair care is about making sure we eat a healthy, balanced diet and that we feed our hair with nourishing products. Maintaining hydration in the body contributes to good quality hair growth. Using nourishing hair products ensures our hair can retain moisture.

You’ll see these principles threaded through my blogs. My goal is to share the simplest tools and techniques to give you easy ways to care for and style your hair at home.

Ogario London is a salon developed range of natural hair care products. Because we are passionate about our products, delivering the best results is at the heart of what we do.
