Having thin hair can be hard to handle; you don’t get as much fun with styling and trying new hair cuts as with those who have thick hair, and you certainly suffer if you even dreamed of getting yourself some summer-beach curls. Yes, we -the people of thin hair- have suffered from that always dull looking style since we were born. But have no more! It is time for you to get a new hairdo that will blow your friends’ minds away. Following are 10 of the best tips and tricks to give thin hair so much a new twist, add volume and color its dullness away:

10 Edgy End

This hairstyle is timeless. The sharp end gives a bold feeling. It’s very simple, therefore giving a sense of confidence. A women going for this style is most likely not interested in catching too much attention with hair but rather with her strong personality. Keeping the cut simple and classic, yet the color mesmerizing, only says “Elegance”; the balayage highlighting, which is the highlighting technique where the hair is dyed to create a natural, graduate look, surly add depth to the hairdo. Another plus side to this cut is that you will have to trim the ends of your hair until they all reach the same length, which will give you healthier hair that can grow longer afterwards.

9 Go White

Going for ash colors has become very trendy and it will help give your hair such a unique flair; thin hair looks a lot better in the light shades as it usually flows effortlessly straight around you face. Medium length hair bobs, are very easy to handle as they don’t need much styling. If you normally have a busy day and can’t afford spending time doing your hair every morning, this would be perfect for you. Nevertheless, the color is definitely breathtaking with long hairstyles too!

8 Large Waves

Large loose waves can never die out of trend. Large waves will certainly give your hair the desired volume, plus this works perfectly with all hair colors. When you use your hair iron to style the waves don’t style the hair ends. Just leave them stick out in a rather natural style. The imperfections lies in the differences between the ends of locks of the hair guarantee a fresh lively look instead of having a sort of “arranged hair style”.

7 Bangs and Waves

This trend is similar to the previous style, but with bangs. The hairstyle we have here has soft edged bangs and hair ends for a sweet playful look. The waves combined by the layering in the bangs make the perfect volume, plus the roots are slightly a darker shadow than the rest of the hair, so it adds up to the volume.

6 Rock Bob

Adding those super cool highlights has taken the normal bob to a whole new level. This style speaks out; the waves are light and natural, and the colors are not screaming but are soft and cohesive. Make sure you choose two colors that match well together and try to go to the salon when it fades out for a re-color. You can wear this same style straight if you’re aiming for a more sophisticated look or curl it even more using hairspray for a “thug life” finish.

A great Bob style is the chopped edge one, choppiness gives the hair texture, and the rough feeling of the style will certainly stand out if you are a woman that likes to make a statement. What’s really easy about this look is that having it look messy is not a big issue, the mess adds to the sass!

5 Layering

If you wear your hair long and manage to layer it as much as possible, your “volume” problems will be “Bye-Bye”. Have shorter layers around the face then leave it get longer as you move downwards. Using a blow-dryer will help fluff up your hair locks more than the iron would so try to stick to it with this particular style.

4 Fringe and Layer

This look is perfect for team “long hair” out there. It is such an effortless look; the disconnected hair layering adds up a lot to the volume. It also gives the hair a lively look during movement. While the soft fringe may not suit everyone’s taste, it still gives a girly, sweet finish to your hairstyle.

Stick to a classic brown, edged hair for a chic look. If your life involves too many events perhaps or your job requires you to always look presentable and on fleek, this would be perfect. Works better on oval faces to be honest or slim ones in general but ladies with round faces could go for it as well.

This softer look would suit you, if you were more of a shy or simple person, avoiding the bold edginess of the previous style, but still keeping the super elegance. This cut would work for round faced people, and would even compliment those adorable cheek bones they tend to have.

This yet more breathtaking look can only suit you if your life is already a nuthouse! A very spontaneous look with natural, nearly messed up waves that give a glamorous volume. It is suitable for an outgoing, artistic woman. And the COLOR…my oh my! We can’t even begin on describing how catchy it is. If you’re brave enough to go for such look, you won’t even have to worry about having thin or thick hair; trust us no one will even notice its volume. This look requires a little extra care though. To keep the color bright for the longest period, use color-protection shampoo and try not to wash your hair too often. You can simply visit the salon every now and then to re-color your hair, or you can have even MORE fun by picking a new color each time the current one fades out.
