It’s no secret that most of us are willing to do whatever it takes to add volume and thickness to our hair. Whether you want to make your thin hair look thicker and more voluminous or just want to cover up a bad haircut, there’s no doubt that fuller hair always looks gorgeous.
In our quest to add volume to our hair, we often spend hours browsing through various volume-boosting products on the market. But most of those products come with hefty price tags, and there’s no guarantee they’ll work.
The good news is that there are many natural ways to achieve your desired volume without spending vast sums of money on expensive hair care products. One of the best ways to volumize thin hair is through a skilled haircut. Yes, many different haircuts can help add volume to your hair.
Discover these five haircuts to volumize your hair instantly!
1. Blunt Bob


If you want volumized hair that’s quick and easy to style, the blunt bob has you covered. This classic cut will give your hair volume all over without appearing too bulky on the sides or at the top. The best part is that this simple yet chic haircut will provide you with a beautiful face frame.
Plus, you can style this low-maintenance haircut in many different ways, and it’s the perfect choice for any hair type and face shape. The beautifully tapered neckline at the nape and the uniform bottom will give your locks some serious va-va-voom. If you have fine hair and want to add volume, consider adding some choppy layers for a more dramatic effect.

3. Lob

The lob is a perfect combo of the boldness of the bob and the versatility of long hair. From bouncy blowouts to big curls, this style will give you the extra volume, texture, body, and movement to look incredible. It also allows you to add long layers and even curtain bangs. This is one of the best hairstyles to showcase beachy waves, which will elevate finer hair and add a bit more texture.
This haircut is ideal for those with longer hair who prefer loose waves. Whether you wear it below your shoulders or opt for a shorter style, the lob will give your face a beautiful frame and draw attention to your facial features, giving you instant volume and face-framing layers.

If your hair is shorter, consider wearing medium-length hair extensions to add the length required for a lob. However, be sure to choose only 100% Remy human hair extensions (such as Zala tape-in hair extensions), as they appear natural and blend seamlessly with your own hair.
Make sure to visit a salon to get a lob haircut with hair extensions. After all, you won’t want to damage your best tape-in hair extensions by taking the DIY route.
If you want to add some luscious curls or beach waves to your lob, invest in a great curling iron like the Bestope Pro with five interchangeable wands.

4. Asymmetrical Bob (ish)

This haircut is cropped right above the shoulders on one side and cut off at an angle to just below the ear on the other. This is an excellent volumizing trick for thin hair, especially if you have an oval, square, or heart-shaped face. The asymmetry of this haircut will draw attention to your cheekbones and jawline, making them look more pronounced.

This haircut is more popular among women who want more volume but prefer a shorter style. The deep side part adds volume to the hair on one side of the head, making it look more stylish than a traditional bob. It’s a perfect way to achieve the look and feel of a chic bob without worrying about excessive maintenance.
Keep flyaways at bay with Nexxus Finishing Mist, which will hold your hair in place without making it stiff or sticky.

5. Fringe

A fringe is a perfect way to add a lot of volume around your face, adding weight, height, and thickness to your hair. This cut looks best on straight or wavy hair and suits most face shapes.
The fringe has many variations, from the basic cut to the more dramatic ones. It’s all up to you and will depend on how much volume you want to add to your locks. This hairstyle is so versatile that you can wear it straight across your brow level, like a bang, or opt for a center part with the hair brushed to one side.
Even if your hair is short, you can still sport the fringe hairstyle with tape-in human hair extensions. Extensions add length, volume, and thickness to your hair, allowing your stylist to cut the wefts and give your hair the coveted fringe vibe. To achieve more volume, use a round brush and showcase your wispy bangs – this is the first step in showcasing a great haircut that will give you extra body and make it look like you’ve thick hair.
When styling your fringe, protect it with a heat-protectant spray. Our favorite is Chi Iron Guard Thermal Protection Spray.
