The #1 Rule for Cutting Thin Hair

Sarah emphasizes that the most important rule when cutting thin hair into a short style is to avoid adding too many layers around the face. She explains, “Women with thin hair have less hair on the sides near the temple and above the ear. It’s so important not to cut too much off in this area, so you’ll still has some length on the sides, which helps to create fullness for thin hairstyles.” Sarah recommends bobs, angled bobs, and pixies for the best results with thin hair.

Versatility and Styling Options

According to Sarah, the biggest benefit of these cuts is their versatility in styling. She elaborates, “You can wear this cut in many different ways. I love that you can wear it towards your face or away while being tucked behind the ears. This cut can be styled straight, beveled, wavy, or curly.”

Maintenance Considerations

Sarah notes that a potential drawback of these cuts is the need for regular maintenance. “Most likely, you will need to schedule an appointment every 4 to 6 weeks to keep it refreshed. If this is not an option for your lifestyle, I recommend a longer version.” She advises clients to consult with their stylist about the maintenance required for their chosen style.

Addressing Common Misconceptions

Sarah points out that many people, including some stylists, may not be aware that this type of cut requires fullness in the back of the head, around the occipital bone. “It is important for us as stylists to examine and determine whether or not fullness needs to be created.” For clients with a flat spot in the back of the head, Sarah suggests incorporating a soft graduated stack of layers in the nape area, not accentuating any flat areas.

Important Questions to Ask Your Stylist

Before committing to this kind of cut, Sarah emphasizes the importance of ensuring your stylist has the necessary experience and skill. She suggests asking the following questions: “Are you comfortable cutting short hair? Do you have experience with the specific look I have chosen?” Knowing your stylist can achieve your desired result will help ensure a successful haircut.

#1: Layered Wavy Hair with Highlights

Work a new short wavy bob with blonde highlights by spraying some sea salt spray for added texture. A deep side part helps balance an angled face that needs softening and also adds volume.

#2 Nape-Length Long Messy Pixie

A nape-length long messy pixie gives body to fine hair. When it comes to an optimum chop, a pixie is it. The length, layers, and even the beige-blonde shade make your hair seem fuller.

#3: Brown Bubble Bob with Blonde Underlights

A short brown bob is the ideal hairstyle to display blonde highlights underneath. If you tuck your hair behind your ears, the side bangs will make the hidden highlights more obvious and create a peekaboo effect.

#4: Soft Boyfriend Bob with Off Center Part

A lady with a round face can wear a bob. To do this, keep the boyfriend bob slightly longer and part the hair off-center. Add a few loose waves towards the bottom to give a little movement. Keep the root area of the hair flat. Don’t add volume here, as this would make the face appear rounder.

#5: Sleek and Straight Italian Bob

A sleek and straight Italian bob style is a classic look you will love. If you want to join the side-parted style trend, this is the ideal look for you. It’s suited for women with fine hair, as the fullness of the bob gives the illusion of thicker hair. Easy enough to style, this look requires only a blow dryer and round brush, which you use to shape your hair ends inwards. For added volume, you can tease the top of your hair if you want more lift.

Short Tousled Thin Hair with a Middle Part

#6: Tousled Thin Hair with a Middle Part

If you’re a woman with thin hair and desire a modern hairstyle with a middle part, this tousled look is a versatile choice. The haircut adds texture and movement to thin hair, creating the illusion of thicker locks. The middle part contributes to symmetry and balance, enhancing the overall look. It suits those with naturally straight or slightly wavy hair.

#7: Copper Red Short Fringe

Try copper red short fringe for a new interesting twist on your locks. Ask for a micro bang with lots of pieced-out texture, and emphasize that you want a wispy fringe. To keep this style edgy it’s important to have soft layers and low volume. I recommend a straight razor haircut for this type of style.

#8: Tousled Blonde Short Blunt Bob

A tousled short blunt bob is very trendy. If you have fine hair it will help to cut a blunt perimeter. A short bob will give you body. However, depending on your face shape, you must consider what length is best for your bob. Constitute personal style, edgy, sophisticated, glamorous, or feminine?

Short Curly and Thin Hair

#9: Short Curly Hair

Ask your hairstylist about getting volume-enhancing layers, as they go well with short curly hair. Short layers add more movement and texture to dark locks that girls with round faces will admire the most.

Short Graduated Bob with Long Bangs for Thin Hair

#10: Short Graduated Bob with Long Bangs

Stay away from mullet-type hair and go for a short-length graduated bob with long front layers. It’s another haircut that benefits ladies with fine or thin hair. Use styling products with a light fixation that gives shine and volume to your hair, such as the Perfect Me (by EIME Wella Professionals), before and after drying.

Cute Short Angled Cut with Stacked Layers for Thin Hair
Instagram @pixie.hairdesign

#11: Cute Short Angled Cut with Stacked Layers

You should consider a short angled cut with stacked layers if you searching for a shape with style. The graduation or stacking in the back gives a bob pretty lines and is accented when you blow dry it straight. You’ll want light layering through the long bang for movement.

Chic Short Rounded Bob with Long Bangs for Thin Hair
Instagram @nooa_hj

#12: Chic Rounded Bob with Long Bangs

If you’ve got thin hair and want a style to make your hair look fuller, try a rounded bob with some long bangs. The movement and bluntness of this cut give the illusion of thicker hair density. The bangs help draw attention to facial features such as cheekbones or eyes. Add in a texturizing spray to help give movement, such as IGK’s Beach Club, to give a little more lift to the roots.

#13: Simple Short Choppy Pixie

If you still want an edge, consider a short, textured pixie. This cut looks like you’ve done a lot of work, but it can be styled very simply. I always suggest that clients style with their hands, a blow dryer, and some wax. It will look like you just stepped out of the salon.

Bold Short Red Bob with Angled Layers for Thin-Haired Women

#14: Bold Red Bob with Angled Layers

#15: Strawberry Pixie Mullet with Dark Roots

A strawberry pixie mullet with dark roots is a super modern punk rock haircut. Ideal for naturally wavy hair, you could wear your bangs forward or even middle parted for a curtain bang look. Follow up with surf spray to give it some gritty texture.

#16: Wolf Bob Cut with Wispy Bangs

Try a wolf bob cut with wispy bangs if you have thin hair. The bangs and layers will help add body to your hair while still being easy to manage. Go for this chin-length cut if you’re looking for a bob that will further frame your face.

High Wedge Cut with a Side Part for Thin Hair
Instagram @michelle.k.harrison

#17: High Wedge Cut with a Side Part

A high wedge cut with a side part has a beautiful shape and is easy to care for. I recommend your wedged back starts at the occipital bone for an accurate shape. The shorter the back wedge line, the more dramatic your jaw-length cut will appear.

#18: Side-Parted Bob for Older Women with Glasses

If you need eyewear, I suggest a side-parted bob for older women. When deciding on your crop, my advice is always to consider your lifestyle. Glasses wearers will find that longer hair around the face works better with their day-to-day styling.

#19: Icy Blonde Pixie with Tousled Piece-y Layers

If you like texture, try an icy blonde pixie with tousled piece-y layers. The layered strands are perfect for creating a funky shape. Length is left around the ears and back, making it softer and feminine. The bangs are light and airy, enabling you to style them any way you wish.

Peach Side-Swept Bangs and Cut for Thin Hair
Instagram @cocoon_styling

#20: Peach Side-Swept Bangs and Cut

Peach side-swept bangs will brighten up your appearance. When dyeing your hair, going lighter and brighter will make you look younger. I recommend talking to your stylist to see what color compliments your skin tone. You will love the way shorter hair uplifts your features. The side-swept bang works well cut asymmetrically and gives you a funky shape.

Short Thin Choppy Hair with Shaved Sides and Nape

#21: Short Choppy Hair with Shaved Sides and Nape

Short choppy hair paired with shaved sides and a shaved nape is perfect for finer and thinner hair types. Try adding a volume spray to add extra texture. Ask your stylist for a nape undercut to create a more disconnected shape. If you need to, you can even add a bit of lightening to give more contrast.

Thin Wash-And-Wear Crop Cut with Wispy Layers
Instagram @hairnhnc

#22: Wash-And-Wear Crop Cut with Wispy Layers

You should consider a wash-and-wear crop cut with wispy layers. Accent your earrings with short hair around your ears. While the layers on top could create volume, wearing it on the flatter side is easier and makes your hair look thicker. You might want to add highlights for extra dimension and to plump up your hair shaft.

Short Bleach Blonde Bob for Thin-Haired Women

#23: Bleach Blonde Bob

The bleach blonde bob is a stunning hairstyle seen on many catwalks this season. It’s a head-turning color and cut and if you’re going to get it, why not ask your stylist to bleach your eyebrows as well and complete the look? When the toner washes off, the color may look a bit warm. But, your hairdresser can solve this problem by applying a quick glaze to the basin.

Brunette Pixie Shag with Baby Bangs for Thin Hair

#24: Brunette Pixie Shag with Baby Bangs

A brunette pixie shag with baby bangs softly frames your face with delicate petals. Razor-cutting a pixie cut creates a shape that’s full of texture at the top. This cut is a wonderful option for women with fine hair who want a short and shaggy style. Try Mannequin styling paste to define the textured waves.

#26: Gorgeous Blonde Curled Ends

Ask for gorgeous blonde curled ends, and be prepared to turn heads. Beautiful on thin or fine hair, curls add the perfect amount of volume. I always use a heat protectant before applying hot tools.

#27: Low-Maintenance Angled Bob with a Face Frame

If you’re looking for a chic look that doesn’t require much effort, try a low-maintenance angled bob with an added face frame. The soft texture and minimal layers are ideal for your fine hair. It also works if you have thick or medium-density hair. It’s a style that gives you a soft look.

#28: Undercut Hairstyle on White-Blonde Pixie

Try a white-blonde pixie with an undercut hairstyle for a stylish and sassy look. Keep in mind that global blonding is a high-maintenance color and will require you to visit the salon every 4-6 weeks. Waiting too long between retouches can cause banding of your hair color.

#29: Soft Pixie Cut with Razored Layers

A soft pixie cut paired with razored layers creates movement and height in fine hair. Razor cuts create blended layering that can be styled smooth or textured. Try Reverie Balm to define and piece out your texture.

#30: Sharp Bob Cut on Chocolate Brown Hair

A sharp bob cut gives chocolate brown hair a sleek style. This cut lands right at the jawline and draws attention to your collarbones. A tapered weight line on a short bob makes fine hair appear lifted. Try a volumizing dry texture spray to finish this style.

A high-fashion look for the everyday woman is a short, sleek haircut with blunt ends. This cut is for you if you like the sharp look on the runways and would like an easy-to-style, always-chic look.

#40: Middle Part on a Shattered Bob Cut

A middle part on a shattered bob haircut brings out your best features. A beige-toned balayage helps add dimension to brunette hair. It’s never been easier to embrace short hair than with a textured bob cut. Use a flat iron to add waves to your hair by turning the iron back and forth in an “S” pattern.

#41: Black Sliced Bob with Loose Curls

If you want to make your fine hair appear thicker, try a black sliced bob styled with loose curls and waves. Blunt ends make your hair look fuller. Use a 1-inch curved flat iron to create different and alternating waves and curls in your hair.

#42: Shaggy Pixie Bob

If you’re a woman with fine hair, you should consider a shaggy pixie bob. A shaggy pixie will give your thin hair some much-needed body and help make styling a breeze. If you want a more feminine style, the ends should be made wispy and soft.

#43: Short Choppy Hair with Piecey Layers

Consider a fresh chop with short, choppy hair and piecey layers. Having piecey layers for those with hair on the thinner side will make your mane look much fuller and more voluminous. Use a small round brush or a small curling iron to set and hold your style all day.

#44: Short Messy Beachy Waves

Short messy beach-style waves are fabulous for thin hair. A haircut with softly textured layers is a great way to give the illusion that your hair is thicker, especially if you work in a volumizing product before blowdrying. Use a flat iron vertically to create gentle bends in your hair, keeping your style looking classy yet casual instead of overly curly.

#45: Sleek Stacked Pixie

#51: Bob with Shaggy Layers and Bangs

You’ll want to try a bob with shaggy layers and bangs. A shag cut has more interest and movement than one-length hair, and the layers give you a tousled shape. Wear this cut more forward to soften up your mature facial features. Ask your stylist for layers throughout, leaving the crown section a bit longer for a flatter shape that is more current. You can use your hands to blow dry for a messy and organic finish.

#52: Neck-Length Inverted Cut

An inverted bob cut will help your fine locks present themselves with a healthy and fuller appearance. A bob cut is very versatile, and suits women with all different hair types, face shapes, and lifestyles. A bob will give you the fullness and volume you want when styling your hair.

#54: Teased Pixie Hairstyle

A teased pixie hairstyle is a super cute and funky chop. This cut is a longer pixie, and the longer layers help to add volume and movement. To add even more volume and funk, try a teased crown. To tease, use a comb or pick, holding your hair up lightly and moving the comb from mid-lengths to roots. Smooth out any unruly pieces before adding hairspray.

#55: Side Part Long Pixie with Bangs

A side-parted pixie cut paired with a soft fringe will give you a romantic glow that is super on-trend. Its effortless finish will keep you feeling comfy. I recommend a pixie if you struggle with flatness in your crown area. You will get the most lift and volume you never knew you could have.

#60: Shaggy Feathered Bob

Try a shaggy feathered bob if you want a hairstyle with texture and movement. Style your hair with a round brush or curling iron to get your hair around your face to flip back, away from your face.

#61: Soft Shaggy Bob with Wispy Bangs

A soft, shaggy bob paired with wispy bangs is a hairstyle packed with texture and volume. This hairstyle doesn’t require much to style but can be styled with a curling iron for a messy, wavy style that will make fine hair appear fuller.

Rock a razor cut bob with waves for a cute and manageable hairstyle. A haircut like this is ideal for fine hair that needs more volume because the short length helps remove unnecessary weight from your hair, allowing your curl to do its thing.

Long pixie cut

#79: Long Pixie Cut

A long pixie with side bangs will be flattering. To keep the fullness around the sides, where you have lesser hair, you’ll need fewer layers, especially if your hairdresser has added a fade to the sides. Bangs for thin hair appear thinner if the length is longer than the chin added with several layers. Keeping more layers in the back will create fullness having more hair to work with.

#80: Neck-Length Wavy Bob

A slightly angled, neck-length bob makes for a great cut because the angling gives you volume in the back with soft layers.

Use dry shampoo on thinner hair in order to give it the appearance of more hair.
