It's always layers for me - and styling gel, for volume. If ever there was a world shortage of styling gel, I would cry. Years ago, a hairdresser said to me, "Gosh, your hair's got absolutely no body at all!" I think I was supposed to be impressed at her observation. I never went back there......(It's not that bad, not even now.....but I've always longed for thicker hair, especially as twin has it...)
