What you need to know about fine hair

Girls with such hair use the same hairstyles as their thick owners. But the thinner the strands, the more volume you want to see on them. Hence the most common mistake – a girl who is not too thick makes too much basal volume, and in combination with “sheer” ends and length this will look disharmonious. The volume should match the density so it’s not what I call octopus style. By the way, in more detail about how to create it, we wrote here.

The second problem with fine hair is that they are a little less willing to keep their shape. Therefore, the strands should either be fixed with varnish, or use products that make them drier and more obedient. It can be a salty texturizing spray or a cream that thickens the hair along the length.

bundle

The simplest and most comfortable hairstyle for thin hair is the bun. It looks appropriate with an evening dress, as well as a tracksuit or a casual bow. A bundle for thin strands is a real salvation. No one will know how much hair you have if it clumps.

One of the easiest ways to create a bun is to make a high bundle of hair on the top of your head and hold it with one finger, twist it, collect it and fix it with hairpins or invisible, depending on what. at hand. The bun will look relaxed and you can pull a few strands from your face to make the hairstyle look more romantic.

waves

On thin hair, the texture looks perfect, resembling loose braids. Waves, not curls. Wrinkles on the neck look good not only immediately after styling, but throughout the day. And even if the hairstyle starts to deform, it can be refreshed by throwing the hair to the other side and doing a light basal massage with your fingers. You can create curls in many ways. For example, using a curling iron or a braid on wet hair. Loosen the last one after it dries and the waves are ready.

“Wet” style

“Wet” styling can deftly distract attention from fine hair, and by the way, this is also one of the most fashionable hairstyles of this year.

It is done quite simply. The main thing is to choose the right tool. For fine hair, I often use regular hairspray and apply it from a very close range. It gives the desired “wet” effect and at the same time retains its volume unlike products with a more fluid texture.

First you need to take all the hair back or toss it to one side again. After that, you can distribute it as close as possible to the roots, gradually applying varnish. Create the desired wave vector with a comb before it has time to dry. At the output you will get a super stable style with a “wet” effect.
