How to Use a Volume Boost Mask for Fuller Dog Coat

Quick answer

Use a volume boost mask as the third step in a professional three-step grooming system to add body and shine to your dog's coat. Apply after shampoo and conditioner, leave on for the recommended time, then rinse thoroughly.

How to apply a volume boost mask

1. Start with a clean, damp coat: Bathe your dog with a gentle shampoo and rinse thoroughly. Towel-dry until the coat is damp but not dripping. A clean coat allows the mask to penetrate evenly. Skipping the rinse step can leave shampoo residue that blocks the mask from working.
2. Apply the mask from mid-length to tips: Squeeze a small amount of volume boost mask into your palm and work it through the coat, avoiding the roots and face. Focus on areas that need extra body, such as the back and tail. Use a wide-tooth comb to distribute evenly. Applying too close to the roots can make the coat look greasy instead of voluminous.
3. Let it sit for the recommended time: Leave the mask on for 3-5 minutes (or as directed on the label). This allows the ingredients to bond with the hair cuticle and enhance elasticity. Do not exceed the recommended time. Leaving it on too long can cause stiffness or buildup, not extra volume.
4. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water: Rinse until the water runs clear and no product remains. Any leftover mask can weigh down the coat and reduce the volumizing effect. A final cool-water rinse helps seal the cuticle and adds extra shine.
5. Dry and style as usual: Blot the coat with a towel, then use a pet hair dryer on a low heat setting while brushing to lift the hair at the roots. This step maximizes the volume boost. Air-drying without brushing may flatten the coat; use a dryer with a comb attachment for best lift.
