Hairstyles for Long Thin Hair

Actually, you can count on a wide range of fabulous hairstyles – updos and downdos which you wouldn’t believe are made on thin hair, so charming and classy they are. Use bouffant, backcombing, highlights, waves and curls like in pictures below. These are the little tricks to make our locks appear thicker. And most of us use them from time to time, who doesn’t?

Shaggy razor-cut layers provide texture without harsh and heavy lines which can weigh thin hair down. Natural beach waves offer the perfect amount of volume for a casually sexy style.

2. Wavy Hairstyle with Long Choppy Layers

Layered cuts are a great fit for any hair type, even for locks lacking body, as the latter can be built through the cutting process. Curling and finishing with a volumizing hair spray ensures hair doesn’t fall flat. Platinum weaved with a neutral or cool brown is a great hair color choice for this cut.

3. Subtly Layered Caramel Hairstyle

Carefully placed highlights can add dimension to play up long thin hairstyles, while inconspicuous changes in length create movement. These two paired prevent a style from seeming boring or plain. A straight hairdo is easily softened by simply bending the ends of the hair inward.
