You may want hair to sit away from the head without looking fluffy at the surface. If you use the word volume, explain which of those qualities you mean. A reference photograph can help, but point to the specific part you want to reproduce.
What to discuss with your barber
Japanese and Western barbering both include a wide range of finishing techniques. Ask which stage creates the lifted appearance and which stage refines the surface afterwards. Understanding the distinction makes it easier to decide whether you want both. It also gives you a clearer home routine: you are not trying to brush the whole hairstyle flatter when only the outer finish feels too loose. Specific descriptions help avoid an unnecessary change of direction.
