Blunt Bob
Besides looking totally chic, this cut is super strategic for thin hair. Going for a short bob length will instantly take off weight, and keeping the ends blunt will make you hair look thicker.

Lightly Layered Lob
There's no need to go crazy with the layers, either. Long layers give the ever-flattering lob cut just enough movement and volume to maximize fine strands.

Asymmetrical Lob
Take your lob up a notch with an asymmetrical update like this one by stylist Nikki Lee of Nine Zero One Salon. The deep side part piles your hair onto one side, which feigns density and fullness, while blunt ends do the rest of the work.

Full Fringe
Bangs can work wonders. If you have thin hair, skip the wispy fringe and pick full-on thick bangs instead. It's the perfect way to add some hair density around your face without risking wispy little strands sticking to your forehead every time you work up a sweat. (Isn't that the worst?)

Classic Chin Bob
Will the classic bob ever go out of style? Nope—and for good reason. The chin length takes off major weight, which helps fine hair pump up the volume and appear thicker.

Blunt Lob
We'll reiterate: Blunt ends are your new best friend! Especially if you have straight hair that skews thin or fine, a blunt cut is the ultimate thick-haired helper.

Side-Swept Long Cut

French Bob
What's the French-girl bob, you may ask? It's only the most effortlessly chic short cut ever. Ask for a blunt chin bob with straight-across fringe and a touch of je ne sais quoi, and you're nearly there.

Shaggy Lob
You'll find another feather-light option in a modern shag cut. If you're not into blunt cuts, this sassier counterpart is just what the stylist ordered.

Undercut Crop Cut
Ready to make a statement? Pick an undercut crop. We suggest this razor-sharp style for thin-haired ladies who already know how to rock a short cut with confidence. Part your hair deeply on one side for added fullness.

Choppy Pixie
A super pixie isn't for everyone (you've got to have the spirit!), but it makes the most of thin hair.

Asymmetrical Bob
We're back with the asymmetrical bob—because it's even better when taken up a few inches, like seen here by stylist Bobby Mack.

Deep-Parted Long Cut
Parting your hair deeply over to one side essentially piles all of your hair onto the same side, which makes it look wonderously thicker. If you're keen on sticking with long locks, this makes a flattering choice.

A-Line Bob
This is like the deep-part effect, but turned on its head (literally). Cutting the back shorter than the front, which is the calling card of an A-line bob, stacks all the weight in a way that appears super full and helps create volume.

Fringed Shag Cut
Just one more shag cut, please! We can't get enough of the layered, fringed cut that plays into thin hair's inherent breeziness.
