Have Fine, Weak Hair? A Stylist Shares The ‘Life-Changing’ Haircut That Can Give You ‘Massive Volume & Thickness’

Anyone who has naturally fine, thin hair knows how challenging it can be to create — and maintain — volume when it comes to styling their tresses.
Hair stylist and expert Gabriela Soares shared a YouTube video in which she showed her favorite shoulder-length and flattering haircut for this hair type, deeming it to be “life-changing” and voluminous.
In the vid, Soares headed to the salon and filmed herself getting her locks cut into a “long bob” that ended at her collarbone. She also got a face-framing, “long curtain fringe” at the front of her face to create more volume and the illusion of thicker hair.
Because there are no layers in the cut, Soares notes that “every single section of hair meets at the exact same point.” When you have fine hair, “if you do this, your base line will look much fuller, which will trick the eye into thinking that the hair itself is thick,” she says. She stresses avoiding layers and instead recommends a more blunt look.
