13 hairstyles to make fine hair look thicker

These life-changing haircuts will create the illusion of thicker-looking hair in no time

Thin hair can easily become lifeless and flat especially when combined with Singapore’s humid climate. It lacks body and volume and sometimes takes some finagling to look great. Although finer hair may be silkier to the touch and easier to style than most, most of the time, they tend to fall flat, limp, and greasy in seemingly no time at all. But all hope is not lost when you have the right haircut, products and a few styling tricks.

If you need some inspiration for your next hair appointment, bookmark this list and take it to your hairdresser. Keep scrolling to see the 13 best hairstyles that can help make fine hair look thicker.

13 hairstyles to make fine hair look thicker
Short pixie

Think you’re daring enough to pull this look off? Surprisingly, an ultra-short pixie, like the ones seen on Zoe Kravitz, makes the ends of your hair fall closer together, making it look dense and fuller.

Wavy lob

Lobs, or a long bob, is one of the go-to haircuts because it easily flatters so many face shapes and hair types. The key is to keep it above the collarbone so it frames the face beautifully. We love how Liu Wen has added waves to really texturise the style.

Micro bob

This micro bob is Parisian chic with its bangs and curls, and we love how it really highlights the eyes. Opt for a blunt cut if you really want to enhance the illusion of volume.

C-curl lob

C-curl treatments are a subtle inward-facing curl that contours at the ends of your hair. This can help make your jawline look more defined, especially when cut at a bob or lob length.

Wavy half-updo

While most updos may emphasise on the thinness of your hair, the trick can be to give it some texture and definition first. You can always curl or add more waviness to your hair before tying half of it up to create the look of full hair.

Pixie cut

For those who are open to a more drastic change, a pixie cut is timeless. This layered one is edgy, handsome, and elegant all in one go and we love how the bangs frame the face.

Mermaid waves

If all else fails, go with curls. Mermaid waves are a sure way of adding more dimension and texture to the hair, we love how uniform these waves look.

Layered lengths

Layering might seem like the antithesis of hairstyles that suit fine hair, but it actually creates the illusion of more body within the hair.

Curtain bangs

Curtain bangs are in again and these shaggy, effortless bangs frame the face beautifully with a middle part. Ideal for creating more volume at the top of the hair, all while framing your face in a complementary manner.

Deep side part

A deep side part is one of the quickest and easiest ways to create dramatic volume. Aside from height and fullness, it also highlights the cheekbones beautifully.

Shaggy bob

If you want to double up on the volume, turn your bob to a shaggy cut and give your hair the much-needed lift.

Blunt bangs
image

Blunt bangs can look pleasantly styled on thin hair, as the light and airy strands won’t look too weighed down on your forehead. We love how the strands around the face frame it beautifully, and we recommend this waterfall-like cut as well.

Mushroom bob

Mushroom bob is just another name for a bob with a C-curl perm, and we love how it adds so much fullness and weight to the ends of the hair.
