As someone with fine hair myself, I know just how frustrating it can be trying to get volume that lasts — and finding products that don’t weigh everything down.

Over the years, I’ve tested countless products both personally and professionally in the salon, and I can confidently say the PUFF.ME range by Design.Me is a total standout for fine hair.

It’s one of my go-to recommendations for clients who want lift, body, and hold — without stickiness, buildup, or that heavy feeling. Here’s how I care for and style fine hair, along with my take on each PUFF.ME product we now stock at V for Hair.

💜 Caring for Fine Hair – My Golden Rules

Use lightweight, volumising formulas

The PUFF.ME Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner are a dream duo.
The shampoo gives a deep, purifying cleanse that removes product buildup and preps the roots for volume.
The conditioner is super lightweight and hydrates without flattening your hair — which is so important for fine strands.

Together, they create a fresh, lifted base that makes styling easier and longer lasting.

Avoid over-washing

Fine hair doesn’t need daily washing. I recommend using dry shampoo between washes to keep volume going.

Try Designme dry shampoos for light or dark coloured hair.

Handle gently

Always use a soft brush or wide-tooth comb. And if you’re heat styling, protect your hair first — PUFF.ME products pair beautifully with your favourite thermal protectant.

💜 Styling Fine Hair – My Favourite Volume Boosters

Now for the fun part — styling! Here’s what I use in the salon (and on myself) to create fuller, more voluminous styles that actually hold on fine hair:

PUFF.ME Volumizing Mousse

This mousse gives your hair structure and fullness without stiffness. I apply it to damp hair before blow-drying for that full-bodied, bouncy look. It’s lightweight, long-lasting, and adds the perfect amount of grip for styling.

Pro tip: Apply roots to ends, then blow-dry with a round brush for a smooth, voluminous finish.

PUFF.ME Volumizing Powder

This one’s a miracle for second-day hair or quick lift at the crown. Just puff a little at the roots and massage in. It instantly boosts volume and adds a subtle hold without any stickiness.

PUFF.ME Light Volumizing Powder

If your hair is super fine or thinning, this is the one I recommend. It gives all the volume benefits, but in a softer, more invisible formula — no residue, no buildup.

Pro tip: Use this after styling to create lift at the roots or add structure to soft layers.

PUFF.ME Dry Texture Spray

This is my must-have for finishing. Whether you’ve curled, waved, or blown out your hair, this spray adds airy volume, texture, and hold. It’s amazing for giving that effortless, undone look while still holding shape.

Pro tip: I use this on all hair types in the salon, but it’s especially magic on fine hair to give a fuller finish that lasts.

💜 Why PUFF.ME is Perfect for Fine Hair:

  • Weightless formulas that won’t flatten or grease up your hair.
  • Flexible hold with zero crunch.
  • Buildable volume — you’re in control.
  • Perfect for styling or reviving next-day hair.
  • Salon-tested and fine-hair approved (by me!)

If you’re ready to fall in love with your fine hair again, the PUFF.ME range is a total game-changer. I’ve tried it all — and this is one of the best lines I’ve found for truly lightweight, volumizing care that delivers real results.
