Tips For Women With Thin Hair

Women with thin hair are often dissatisfied and want more volume or simply thicker hair. There are good tricks!

Women with thin hair often find their own head of hair unsatisfactory, but that doesn’t have to be the case. There are tons of tips and tricks women with thin hair can use to get more out of their hair! Discover how effective even small changes are, for example by choosing the right care.

Women with thin hair don’t always have thin hair!

In reality, women with thin hairs do not always have thin hair, but only badly groomed hair. In theory, one speaks of thin hair only when the diameter of a single hair is less than 0.04mm.

But not all women with thin hair really have that fine hair, they sometimes just perceive it as thin, although by definition it is considered “normal”. However, women with thin hair can use simple tips to increase the volume of their hair, give it more stance and make it look better.

If you are one of the women with thin hair, the following tips should be of interest to you:

Proper hair care: without silicones!

Silicones are cheap petroleum products that wrap around your hair. This doesn’t care for the hair, it just feels like it.

The fallacy of many women with thin hair is that their hair is delicate and needs care. But reaching for “nourishing” shampoos, conditioners and hair treatments is often like reaching for silicones.

The more you use hair care products with silicone, the more silicone will accumulate around your hair. The hair becomes heavier and heavier and loses all volume. This is counterproductive, especially for women with thin hair.

There are special products in hairdressing shops that remove the silicone layer from your hair. If you then only use hair care products that are silicone-free, your hair will naturally appear more voluminous.

The right haircut

Depending on the hair structure, face shape and type, there are many hairstyles that are also suitable for women with thin hair and bring their hair to bear. Hairstyles in which the thin hairs hang down flat without volume are definitely unfavorable. Feminine short haircuts, layered haircuts or a sassy bob are also suitable for thin hair.

Color highlights

To add volume to thin hair, you can also have individual strands colored by the hairdresser. Make sure, however, that the highlights look natural, are not too thick and that you look more like a chipmunk afterwards.

The hair color causes the cuticle of the individual hair to swell and you have more voluminous areas of hair in the areas of the highlights, which make the entire hairstyle look more airy. Make sure that the highlights are not too light and that they are re-colored regularly.

Lighten hair

The same principle as when coloring highlights works if you not only lighten individual areas, but also your entire head of hair. Even a small nuance looks lighter, because here, too, it is only about roughening the cuticle of the hair in order to achieve more volume.

Make sure to take good care of your hair after lightening it so it doesn’t look strawy. As already mentioned, you should be extremely careful not to use any silicone. Silicones are strictly forbidden in natural cosmetics, so such products are always recommended.

Herbal hair color

The difference between chemical and herbal hair color is that chemical colors first open the outermost layer of the hair and then smuggle color pigments into the hair structure. The hair does not become thicker as a result, but only a different color.

Natural hair colors work in the opposite sense: the natural hair color from plant extracts lays itself around the hair like a thin, additional layer, which firstly strengthens it, secondly the cuticle closes and the hair shines and thirdly the hair takes on the new color.

If you want to stay with your original hair color, there is also “colorless hair color” in the natural cosmetics sector , which works on the same principle but does not contain any color pigments.

Such colors and mixtures for strengthening and strengthening the hair structure are purely vegetable and can be used safely without a hairdresser. You can get natural hair colors in your nearest organic retailer.

Blow dry properly

To give the hair shine, the hair is usually pulled long using a round brush when blow-drying. But women with thin hair should blow dry their hair differently. It is important that the hairline does not lie flat on the scalp. Always blow-dry upside down so that the hairline gets volume. A small amount of volumizing foam can help maintain this effect over the long term. But don’t use too much foam!
