Hair Blahs

I have a really nice, healthy hair - the thing is, the top of my head is so BLAH these days! not sure if it's the weather or pregnancy related but how do I thicken it up some? I need more volume (without backcombing/teasing). Should I use more product on my roots, less? certain kinds? I currently just use a voluminzing shampoo/conditioner, mousse and sometimes a thickening spray. I just had a cut last month.

I read in a Better Homes and Gardens issue that during this time of year, massaging conditioner into your scalp helps keep the blahs away because it moisturizes the roots of the hair, giving you more lift. 

I have thinner hair that is pretty flat but I tried it one day and it really works well!!!  So I would recommend trying that.

That's what I thought, too.  But even on my thin hair, it gives me a little extra bounce.

The article mentioned something about the roots getting dried out in the colder weather and the conditioner helping to avoid breakage around the roots.
