Hair can be analyzed by its density, texture, wave pattern, hairlines and growth pattern. When we say that we have thin hair we are referring to the density or that there aren’t many strands of hair. Fine hair relates to the texture of the hair; so there could be less or more number of strands but each strand is fine. Fine hair is not necessarily thin hair. Though fine hair ultimately thins out and begins falling! Women’s self esteem is closely linked to the way they look, especially the way their hair looks. Sadly fine hair or thinning hair can make you feel like there is no solution to make them look beautiful!
Fine hair leads to a flatter hair style and they are easily susceptible to damage and breakage due to styling or chemical processes like coloring. There are products today that help you with giving body and adding volume to your fine hair making them look fuller and livelier. Thin hair on the other hand means you simply have fewer stands of hair. Mostly people with fine hair, owing to breakage and damage, end up with thinning hair too! In either case, the hair does not have volume. If you are one of those who have downy and baby-fine hair, you know what we are referring to.
Styling your hair is a major difficulty when you have fine hair. Blow drying your hair with your head upside down, directing the heat at the roots is one way you can add volume on a daily basis. Pull your long hair in to a pony tail on top of your head every night and sleep like that. Next morning, you will be amazed at the extra poof added to the hair. This fluffiness usually lasts you the entire day. Lack of volume can also be enhanced by adding highlights to your hair. It will lend a visual depth to your hair, giving an impression of volume; also color will roughen up your hair adding that much needed rough texture.
Fine hair though in want of volume should be stylized keeping in mind your facial features as well. What looks good on one person with fine hair may not hold good for you. Get a cut depending on your hair length, texture, your facial features and the shape of your face. Mostly women find short hair hold fine hair good, a blunt cut hairstyle or short with layered cuts suit most women with fine hair. However, if you have fine and thin hair, a very short hair cut may actually be unflattering as it may allow bald spots to show through. Hence, the first step towards handling your fine hair and feeling good about your hair is a cut that suits you.
Fine hair is not that bad after all, it is just the way we feel about ourselves. Fine hair is silky, soft, manageable and feminine! With a little help from a stylist or by making some changes at home, you can achieve just the look you have always dreamt of!
