Hair products question

[TricityBendix]

Hello - I've got a posh do to go to and want to do something different with my hair. It's a fairly short graduated bob at the moment, so I can't really put it up, and I normally just wear it straight and smooth, but wondered about doing something a bit more tousled and textured??

What do I put onto it / do with it to give it a much more textured look? Do I then do masses of hairspray to keep it like that all evening???

Or is that really naff?

Tip your head up side down, and blow dry with mousse.

It's really fine and I need to avoid it just going fluffy, which it could. I'll end up looking like this I think it needs something to make it more like strands (sorry not girly enough to know right terminology)

The mouse will make it clump up more - but with fine hair you run the risk of crushing it under all the products!

A tiny but of wax works well.
