12 Ways to Give Thin Hair Volume and Body

 It is extremely rare for someone to have naturally thick hair, but it is something completely different when it comes to having naturally thick hair. Our genetics play a big role in determining whether or not we have thick hair, and it is imperative that we recognise the challenges that thin hair has to offer.

Whether you prefer your hair style or your hair care routine, you can easily fake fullness and density by boosting the appearance of thin hair. Whether you use your hairstyle or your hair care routine, you don't need expert skill to pull off these 12 tricks. To make your thin hair appear fuller, check out these 12 tricks for making it look thicker.

How can I make my thin hair look thicker?
While thin strands may not be visible every time you style your hair, they can still affect your appearance. Our favourite tips for adding volume to your strands begin with your hairstyle.

1. Make the Chop

Ask for a blunt haircut to create the illusion of thicker hair and denser curls, particularly for those with thin strands. Instead of a long haircut such as a buzzcut or a lob, a bob or a wavy lob is especially attractive for those with thin strands.
Keeping up with regular haircuts will help your hair look its best if you have naturally thin strands. While many people overlook it, excessive split ends or hair breakage can also cause thin strands and that can be corrected by cutting or trimming.

2. Change Your Part

Hair loss may be reduced by a simple side part, no matter which generation of people you are talking about. Hairs appear thicker when straightened and have natural fullness when flipped to one side. You can accomplish an extra lift at the roots with your new side part by simply flipping your hair to one side.

3. Use a Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner System

The Aveda Pure Abundance Volumizing Shampoo + Regrowz Volume Conditioner is an easy pick if you have small, weak-looking hair. The hyaluronic acid in this duo locks moisture into dry strands for visibly bouncy, beautiful and shiny skin, body, and haircut.

 4. Air-Dry Your Hair

Air drying your hair is a simple and effective method to increase its natural volume and texture while reducing heat damage. Curly or wavy hair can use a curl-enhancing cream to create their natural wave patterns after washing.
Treat yourself to a styling cream if you don't have naturally curly hair. Braid each side of your wet hair once it has been dried. Enjoy the easy, heatless waves that give your hair a naturally fuller appearance after you undo the braids.

5. Consider Getting Hair Extensions

If you're looking for hair that is long, voluminous, and of high quality, hair extensions might be a good choice. Whether you choose clip-ins, clips, or beaded extensions, they can give your thin strands a makeover, adding length, body, and volume, irrespective of whether you are looking for long hair or hair extensions.

6. Use Dry Shampoo on Your Roots

Dry shampoo should be your best friend if you have very short hair because it can refresh greasy roots and give more volume in an instant.

7. Double Up Your Ponytail

To create a bouncy and lively ponytail without hair extensions, you must create two ponytails instead of one. To do so, divide your hair into a top and bottom section, keeping them even in size.
Keep your hair out of the way by clipming the top section up to keep it out of the way. Take the bottom section of hair, apply a ponytail at the base of your head, and secure it with an elastic. Creating a ponytail above the previous ponytail is simple. Secure it with an elastic and you've got yourself a stylish ponytail with a little extra length and bounce.

8. Backcomb Away

A healthy dose of backcombing can do wonders to give your hair instant volume and a little lift at the roots. Grab a teasing comb, separate an inch of hair on each side of your part and clip it up. Then, take the teasing comb and begin to backcomb (comb upwards) the hair near the roots. 

9. Beef Up Your Braids

It's nearly impossible to create a thicker braid by tugging the braid apart, as the Pancaking Method suggests. Instead, use the pancaking technique to create the appearance of a thicker braid. This technique can make any braid appear more majestic or ordinary, as it does with French braids, rope braids, fishtails, and more.

10. Fake Fullness With Root Touch Up

When you have thin hair, a lack of volume is apparent. To get thicker strands, spray your roots to look like fuller ones. This hack is a game-changer for thin hair, as it is a great way to conceal grays or outgrown roots.
