Hair Cuts for Fine Hair

Instructions

• STEP 1: Know that fine hair can be a challenge to style. Choose a hair cut that
will make the most out of what hair she has.
• STEP 2: Consider a pixie cut. Try a short pixie cut such as Natalie Portman
sports for a super easy and trendy hairstyle. This short hairstyle will only need a
little mousse or styling gel applied to it and minimal blow drying to style.
• STEP 3: Consider a bob. For girls who want a little more length, a chin length
bob works great. Keep the bob one length if possible for easier styling. If your
daughter has naturally straight hair she may be able to simply let this style air dry
or use the blow drier to remove any excess moisture and let the rest dry on its
own.
• STEP 4: Consider long hair. Girls with fine hair can have long hair, but the hair
will need extra TLC to make sure it doesn’t become damaged. Fine hair needs to
have the ends trimmed often to avoid split ends. Fine hair can sometimes look
“stringy” and thin if it’s too long. If it is always looking unkempt you may need to
go shorter, such as shoulder length, to keep it looking thicker and tidy.

Hair Products for Thick Hair

Instructions

• STEP 1: Thick hair needs strong enough products to stand up to all that hair. A
firm holding styling gel will give strong hold to thick hair.
• STEP 2: For a wet look, apply a strong hold styling gel to damp hair and style as
desired. Let hair dry naturally. For a softer look, blow-dry hair after applying the
gel.
• STEP 3: For thick and curly hair, use a gel designed specifically for curly hair.
These gels will have a humidity control agent that will keep frizz at bay.
• STEP 4: For a firm but flexible hold on thick hair, a strong hold molding paste
works well. These hair products won’t dry stiff and hair can be restyled
throughout the day.
• STEP 5: Strong hold pomade will also give you a touchable hairstyle. Look for
the high gloss variety to add shine to your hair.
