The Best Haircuts for Women with Thinning Hair
The first step to embracing thin hair is to get a haircut that works for your unique hair texture and hair type. Ask your hairstylist for one of these haircuts for thinning hair.
Shoulder-Length Blunt Lob
A blunt “lob”, or a long bob, is a great option for women with thin hair. Shorter hair means less weight on your roots, giving hair much-needed volume and bounce. Plus, a blunt cut at your ends will make your hair appear thicker and healthier.
Angled Bob
Ask your stylist for a bob with longer pieces in the front. These long pieces will frame your face, adding volume around your face, and drawing the eye down and away from thin hair.
Shaggy Lob
Light, long layers create movement in thin hair. This is an especially great haircut trend for women with wavy hair. Just make sure to be specific that you want light layers — too many short layers will make hair look even thinner than it is.
Long with Wispy Front Layers
This is a great option if you prefer having longer hair. Ask your hairstylist to cut wispy layers at the front of your hair starting from the chin. These layers will frame your face, and can easily be curled back to create extra volume. But avoid layers in the back as these can look too stringy.
Pixie with Choppy Layers

A pixie cut is a great option for women with thin or damaged hair, since cropped hair is healthier and stronger than longer locks. This cut chops off any damaged ends giving you a fresh start for healthy hair. Short, choppy layers also give the illusion of thicker hair. Plus, this look is super easy to style! Just add some pomade and go.
Style Tips for Thin Hair
These simple styling tips will make thin hair look thicker, fuller and healthier.
1. Play with color
Ask your stylist to color your hair with deeper, darker roots and subtle highlights. This coloring technique will create the illusion of depth, making hair look thicker.
2. Try a new part
Side part
Switching your part will naturally create volume at the roots by lifting up hair that has fallen flat at your usual part. Try a deep side part to create the illusion of volume by putting all the hair on one side. Or try a subtly zigzagged part, which will add volume give hair the look of thickness and bounce.
3. Experiment with rollers
Your grandma was onto something: foam rollers are actually amazing for creating volume. Add a few rollers at your crown while you apply makeup or drink coffee, then remove and brush for gorgeously full hair. We also love that foam rollers don’t use heat, so they minimize damage to fine hair.
4. Use a thickening serum
Lay the foundation for fuller hair by using a thickening serum like Viviscal Hair Thickening Serum. Apply a small amount to wet hair, then style as normal for thicker, fuller-looking hair.
As an added benefit, nine out of 10 women who used Densifying Elixir in conjunction with Viviscal Thickening Shampooand Conditioner noticed thicker-looking hair in just a week.**
5. Master the blow drying technique
While we typically recommend air drying hair to keep it as healthy as possible, blow drying hair upside down is a great way to get some extra oomph before special occasions.
Always rough dry hair until it’s almost completely dry before blow drying with a brush. Not only will this prevent damage, but it will also make your hair look thicker.
6. Add texture with dry shampoo
Fine and thin hair tends to be softer, and soft hair has a harder time holding a style. You can add texture to hair by spritzing it with adry shampoo, like Batiste dry shampoo, even if it’s clean. The powder finish of dry shampoo will make hair look thicker without weighing it down.
