Why Does Hair Fall Flat After Summer?
After months of sun, saltwater, and pool exposure, hair can feel weighed down and limp. Summer damage often leaves strands dehydrated, making them collapse instead of holding their natural body. Add Central Valley’s dry fall air, and many clients notice their style feels lifeless.
What’s the Difference Between Cleansing for Volume and Styling for Volume?
Volume starts in the shower. A volumizing shampoo like Keune Absolute Volume gently lifts at the root while reinforcing hair with wheat proteins and provitamin B5. This creates a foundation of body and strength without weighing strands down.
Styling lift sprays, such as Keune High Rise, serve a different purpose. Instead of cleansing, they expand each strand’s diameter and add flexible hold. This means shampoo sets the stage, and the spray amplifies results for all-day fullness.

How Can I Layer These for Maximum Lift?
·      Step 1: Tone → Begin with Absolute Volume Shampoo and Conditioner to create a lightweight, lifted base.
·      Step 2: Protect → Use a heat shield if blow-drying to preserve hair health between salon visits.
·      Step 3: Refresh → Apply High Rise Styling Spray at the roots before blow-drying or styling to lock in lift.
Stylist Tip: Think Direction, Not Just Product
When blow-drying, lifting sections upward at the root amplifies the effect of volumizing products. Combine technique with product layering for results that feel weightless yet full.
Key Takeaway
Flat fall hair is not inevitable. With the right layering—volumizing shampoo for internal support and a styling lift spray for external structure—you can carry summer confidence into autumn.
