Say no to see-through bangs and yes to blunt bangs!

Fine hair tends to clump together which will transform your see-through bangs into an unflattering version when you're in hot, humid weather.

Instead, go for blunt bangs to add volume to your front profile. Opt for a heavy side fringe for a softer look that's also more low maintenance.

Since bangs are quite a commitment, you can always find out if bangs will look good on you and suit your lifestyle before chopping your locks off.

#2 Long bob

One hairstyle that will make your hair look thicker is a long bob that ends at your collarbone. This hairstyle is short enough so your hair isn’t lying flat on your scalp and is suitable for those with round or oval face shapes to bring out your best features.

One tip is to keep changing your hair parting so you can avoid the scalp of your head showing where your hair parts!

#3 Airy textured bob

This airy and light hairstyle will make even the thinnest hair look full! Avoid heavy layers as that will thin out your hair even further. Go for light layers to add movement to your hair.

Adding waves to your airy bob will add even more bulk. Use a volumising product before creating waves to make it look like you have two times of your hair!

#4 Mid-length blunt cut

While short hair works best for thin hair, you don’t have to rule out long hair entirely. 

Go for a length that isn’t too long, ending just below your collarbone, with lots of layers to avoid weighing down your roots and making your hair look flat.

Go for a blunt cut as the fuller ends make your hair appear thicker.

#5 Deep side part

This is another trick for those who prefer to have long hair. A deep side part lumps a lot of your hair on one side, creating the illusion of volume. It also creates lift at the roots.

#6 Choppy pixie cut

This might need some guts to try, but the results may be stunning!

Shorter hair is stronger and less likely to split or break as compared to longer strands of hair. So if you have fine hair, it will benefit from a super-short pixie cut. This hairstyle can also make your thin hair appear thicker. Try a pixie cut with choppy layers to add volume.

To gauge if a pixie cut will look good on you, pull back all your hair in a ponytail and examine your face in the mirror. If you like the way your face looks in most angles, you’ll be happy with your pixie haircut!

Of course, there are other factors that you should consider besides hair thickness when deciding on your haircut. Check out our other tips on how to choose a hairstyle that suits you.
