Don’t be afraid of opting for a shorter hairstyle if you have fine or thin locks. While it may feel daunting to cut off hair that you’ve been nurturing for a while, actually, a short haircut can make your hair look much fuller, more voluminous, and thick, whether it’s density and/or hair loss you’re struggling with, or the actual width of each strand. (Some of us have naturally fine hair, but lots of it, for example.)
Hairstyles for thin or fine hair
Hairstylists agree that one of the best hacks to ensure finer hair looks abundant and thick is to ensure the style is cut with a blunt edge—this keeps the silhouette robust and creates the illusion of fullness. You don’t necessarily need lots of layers either, but they are worth considering in some cases – and bangs can also help, adding detail and shape around the face. Don’t be afraid to play around with your parting – simply flipping it to the side can lend extra oomph, no styling needed.
How to style fine hairstyles
Of course, styling can play a big role in creating body and volume, and there are myriad clever formulas on the market that make it easy, and save time. While density-boosting scalp treatments are brilliant for daily use to help promote growth and thickness, it’s styling products we’ll focus on here.
Start with a shampoo and conditioner duo that promises to pump up the volume. When it comes to styling, seek out mousses and texturizing sprays to add grit and body at the root, and for excellent volume that stays put throughout the day.
Whether it’s a simple, blunt-cut bob or a mussed-up mullet, follow these celebrities’ lead for inspiration.
