If your hair is thinning, you don’t need to be told how this change can affect you. Watching your hair shed and become thinner, even if you are prepared for the change, can make you feel out of control and unlock fears and anxiety you didn’t even know you had.
Feeling nervous about hair changes is normal: but being proactive and finding the best style to work with your changing hair texture can help tremendously. Even if you’re taking hair growth supplements, applying oils and serums, and following other steps to boost your hair health, it doesn’t mean you have to settle for less than your personal best until your hair stops shedding.
These five volumizing cuts and styles can help conceal thinning hair and make your hair look thicker and healthier.
Women Are Swapping Their Boring Water For This Ice Pop Electrolyte Mix!
1. Blunt Bob
Why is the blunt bob a favorite amongst stylists who are looking to give thinning hair a voluminous boost? Simple: by keeping the ends blunt and not choppy, the straighter line gives the illusion of more heft and weight, and this provides the look of more volume.
Additionally, the bob is cut to the chin, and eliminating extra length automatically gives it the appearance of more fullness.
2. Layered Bob
Even though the blunt bob helps create volume doesn’t mean it’s the only bob on the block worth considering. If you prefer more movement and lightness in your hair, cut it to the chin and add longer layers throughout. Be careful not to go overboard with layering though, as there is a fine line between voluminous movement and choppiness, which can make hair look thinner.
3. Bixie
When ‘90s fashions returned, It Girls rediscovered the classic bixie and why it was such a style hit the first time around. A bixie combines the short layers of a pixie with a bit more length - it usually stops somewhere between a pixie and a bob.
This dynamic combo gives thinning hair a volume boost but keeps your style chic and sophisticated.
4. Lob
The lob is a long bob, and it’s ideal for anyone who loves the shape of the bob (especially one with blunt ends and light layering on top), but isn’t ready or willing to take their length that short. It falls around the collarbone and can still be pulled into a ponytail or updo.
5. Butterfly Cut
Picture a butterfly’s wings. That fluttery effect is the goal with the butterfly cut, which gives style and movement to long and medium hair. Be ready for major layering and some styling required to make your layers fall beautifully and frame your face.
