Ok, so what is the deal with these Bump-Its??

Have you ever rocked a Bump-It? Do you know what a Bump-It even is?

A Bump-It is another fascinating "As Seen on TV" invention that takes your average every day hairstyle to pageant queen status in seconds. The actual product is a package containing three different sizes of arched combs that can be placed at different places underneath the hair for serious, instant volume. Two of the combs are geared toward volume at the crown-- the classic bouffant look, and the other is to assist with the "pouf" look in the front of the hair.

I own a Bump-It, (shocker!) but I use it mainly for updo's and other   specialty styles. The Bump-It can be a valuable tool, but it can also be the cause of disaster. Bump-Its do not magically stay in the hair when placed in the desired location. While they are a substitute for teasing, they are not a total substitute. You must make sure the Bump-It will stay in the hair and even more importantly-- will not be visible.

Step One- Begin by deciding where you want to place the Bump-It, and then teasing the hair in that location. After you have teased the hair, secure the hold with a medium-hold hair spray.

Step Two- Place the Bump-It at the desired location, and pull the teased hair over the comb.

Step Three- Use a fine-toothed comb to gently secure any loose strands. The goal here is to cover the itty bitty combs of the Bump-It and put the less roughed up pieces in visible spots, covering both the Bump- It and the teased hair.

Step Four- Style as desired, or leave hair down.

Step Five- Hair spray that sucker into your hair!! Do not let it slip out while dancing, or WHATEVER else. This could cause for some embarassing explanation, especially to men :)

There you go! Rock your Bump-It with pride! For styling ideas with a Bump-It, check out www.bumpits.com.
