Fine hair is an issue for both men and women. It tends to be a more serious issue for women since they typically style their hair more often than men do.

Men with fine hair can simply find a specific cut that works for them. Some even shave their head to eliminate the problem.

When it comes to hairstyles for women, things tend to get slightly more complicated. Women lean more heavily on the styling issue than men do, and their appearance is vitally important to them. It is essential to pursue all your options when dealing with fine hair types to assure that you have a look you will be satisfied with.

Styling Tricks Women with Fine, Flat Hair Need to Know

Even if you have thin locks, you can still make them look fantastic. Just follow these simple yet effective styling tips and your hair will look its best:

Opt for hair shampoo and conditioner with a light formula.

Like with the majority of beauty procedures, you start styling your locks by creating the base. So, wash your hair with a shampoo that is aimed at giving your hair volume and follow up with a hydrating conditioner. Do not wash your hair too often though. While your scalp is most likely already oily, frequent washing may only make matters worse. Try to shampoo every other day or even less often. Also, always indent from your roots when applying conditioner, as it can give them a greasy appearance. Yet, to get the most benefit from it, scrunch your strands with the conditioner while still in the shower.

Clear your scalp from buildup with a clarifying shampoo.

If hair styling products build up in the hair, this makes it weigh down and look limp. Thus, you need to remove dirt and product residue from your locks using a clarifying shampoo weekly.

Stock up on the right hairstyling products.

The key to success in styling fine hair is using products that work for your hair type. In your hair styling kit, you should have a hair mousse for an added volume. Make sure to use it moderately though, applying to wet strands from top to bottom. Also, incorporate a dry shampoo into your routine. It will help you to achieve an outstanding volume and maintain it throughout the day if needed. When it comes to a hair spray, as well as wax, pomade, or oil, you want them to have a lightweight formula. Finally, consider products specially made for thin locks, such as fibrous powders, which allow you to fill in any gaps or spots in your hair.

Use a specific approach to styling the hair.

To accentuate the texture of your hairstyle, squeeze or spray the styling product into your palm first and then only apply to your tresses with your fingers. Also, tease strands of hair to give them extra lift and secure the volume with dry shampoo. Remember to smooth down the hair a bit so that there are no flyaways. Plus, it is better to dry your hair using a blow dryer, as this will not only make the styling product activated but also enhance the volume greatly. Yet, do not use a brush when blow-drying. Just tilt your head forward and help yourself with your hands. Once your locks are almost dry, you may finish off styling with a round brush. Finally, you may follow up with Velcro curlers to uplift your roots to the highest extent.

Resort to special treatments or procedures.

If you have an extra dollar to spend, you may get a volumizing treatment at the salon. Adding highlights will also help make your hair look more defined and structured. Last but not least, you can resort to hair extensions whenever you need extra oomph to your hairstyle.

FAQ

What is the best haircut for fine thin hair?

If your hair is thin and fine, then a lob haircut that barely touches your shoulders is your way to go. Also, texturizing helps to make your hair look more voluminous and flattering for your facial features. Besides, it makes the styling process extremely easy.

Should fine thin hair be layered?

While a perfect haircut for fine and thin locks is considered a shoulder-length lob, layering will add body and volume to it. However, make sure not to overdo it. Opt for subtle layering or get only several strands layered.

Is shorter hair better for fine hair?

There are many reasons why you may find short cuts more beneficial for fine locks. Short hair is stronger compared to long locks. It can also retain the shape and volume better, as it is not weighed down. That said, it is hard to think of a better option for women with fine hair than a pixie haircut.

Is fine hair the same as thin hair?

Not exactly. Though, they are often mistaken for one another. So, when the shaft of your hair is not thick enough, it means you have fine hair, whereas if the amount of hair you have is pretty moderate and it is scattered rather than dense, then your hair is thin.

How do I add volume and texture to fine hair?

If you have fine hair, then you should go for short or medium length haircuts to make it look more voluminous. When you have longer hair, it weighs down as it is pretty heavy. So, go for a bob, a lob or a pixie to add body to your locks. Also, a spritz of texturizing spray or a hair pomade will work wonders for your thin hair.

If you have fine hair, don’t give up on having a beautiful hairstyle to flaunt. There are many options to try and see which ones work best for you. The hairstyles for fine hair are just as achievable as any other hairstyle. You just may need to work a little harder or at least experiment a little more to get the right one.
