'I'm a hairstylist and your flat hair is making you look years older - my quick fix guarantees body and bounce'

Your hair may have lost its va-va-voom over the years as a result of age-related changes, such as thinner strands and accelerated hair loss.

However, regaining that coveted bounce is both essential - and possible - for a youthful appearance.

Lucy warned: "If you walk around sporting flat, thin and dull hair, this can add to your years rather than take them away."

The expert recommended that those with naturally thicker hair use volumising products such as root-lifting sprays and lightweight styling creams.

Other practical solutions include a blow-out or hair extensions for "extra body and bounce".

A blow-out, which can be done at home or in the salon, offers an immediate boost to hair volume.

Offering a pro tip, Lucy advised that using a round brush or Velcro curlers during styling helps to lift the hair effectively.

For more dramatic results, clip-in hair extensions provide instant volume, while salon-fitted extensions offer a longer-lasting solution.

Lucy also spoke to GB News about her hair dye hacks for a more youthful look, warning women to beware of ageing colours that "wash you out" and "make fine lines more noticeable".

Revealing what to ask for instead, she claimed that the right salon requests can leave you looking "10 years younger".

Lucy advised women to opt for softer hair colours, noting that harsh, dark shades can emphasise fine lines.

Instead of harsh dark colours, the expert recommended a blend of highlights and lowlights to achieve a younger look.
