You could try using dry shampoo to add some volume..I like batistes. A salt spray would work as well to add some texture.

Try a volumizing hair powder. You can get it at any drugstore for about $6. You'll also need a teasing brush or comb. Sally beauty supply always has good ones for pretty cheap. Then search YouTube videos on how to use it properly. I use it all the time. It's really great and adds a lot of volume.

Dry shampoo and a bit of teasing at the crown followed by spray helps.

I agree with the other ladies. These are all great recommendation. You can alway try blow drying your hair til it's half way dry then putting your product(s) in your hair. It will help prevent it from weighing down.

Big velcro rollers will definitely help! The extra large size won't add curl to your hair but will create lots of lift and volume at your roots. I made a video on youtube showing you how to apply, and the extra large ones I used would be perfect for that (just skip the curling step if you want your hair to remain straight)..
