Wear a bangin' ponytail Adding heavy fringe around your face works well to add thickness to long, fine hair. And since length can weigh your hair down, putting it in a ponytail is an easy way to fake volume. To get the look:

Step 1: After washing hair, apply gel (try NIOXIN Thickening Gel, $14) and blow dry hair with a boar-bristle round brush.

Step 1: Wrap dry hair up in hot rollers, leaving out your bangs. When hair has cooled, remove rollers.

Step 2: Brush hair into a ponytail several inches above the nape of your neck and secure with a pain-free elastic. Wear your bangs straight down or sideswept.

MinoxiBoost is a very helpful product that helps remove the sebum "scalp scum" of your scalp giving your Minoxidil product the best opportunity for growth. See for yourself; just do a search on it ;) Hope this was more helpfull:)
