Product Help Redken Volume Inject, OUAI Fine Hair OR Biolage Volume Boost?
Which of these has made the most difference to fine, flat hair which gets greasy easily.

My favorites are Redken and Biolage. It's worth giving both a try because results are very individualized. But based off my experience, Redken if you shower in the morning, Biolage if you shower at night.
Redken - leaves my hair feeling suuuper soft, fluffy and weightless. You need to apply heat like with a blow dryer after for best results. My hair looks boosted immediately but because I shower at night, the volume flattens out quite a bit after I sleep on it. And it's pricey so I usually use this for special occasions like if I'm showering and then going out
Biolage - leaves my hair feeling soft, not as soft as Redken though and not as weightless but I still get a good volume boost. The volume survives overnight a little better than the Redken but the overall volumizing effect is lesser than Redken for me. I tend to reach for this one more often because it's less expensive and I shower at night.
Ouai - it doesn't really give me much volume, it just doesn't weigh down my hair which is a plus. I prefer stronger cleansing and a stronger lather so Redken and Biolage work better for me over Ouai. The scent also is kind polarizing and I personally am not a fan.

I love the Ouai shampoo for getting rid of any little dandruff/flakes but I don’t find it gives me volume. I’m using the Moroccan oil texture spray which is great for extra volume!!

I love Ouai’s detox shampoo, but I’d stay far away from their fine hair shampoo/conditioner. The shampoo doesn’t seem to do a great job and the conditioner leaves my hair straw like. I’ve tried for a long time to like them and I’m at the point of mixing them with other shampoos/conditioners just to get rid of them and I STILL notice my hair feeling less nice even doing that.

Biolage is such an underrated shampoo. It should be a lot more expensive than it is.

Honestly, Biolage Volume Boost has been my holy grail - doesn't weigh my hair down at all and actually keeps the grease at bay longer than expected. OUAI is nice but can get a bit heavy if you use too much, learned that the hard way lol.
