20 Stunning Hairstyles for Long Thin Hair

Many hairstylists will recommend that thin-haired girls opt for short or medium length cuts since extra length can make thin hair look stringy. However, if you have thin hair and want to keep it long, there are a number of flattering hairstyles that you can wear in order to make your thin hair look healthy and voluminous. One of the best things about having thin hair is that this hair type is surprisingly receptive to products that add volume. Since thin hair is less weighty than thick hair, most styling products will hold very well so you can feel confident that your style will last all day. To help you find the perfect hairstyle, we have compiled a list of the 20 best hairstyles for long thin hair. Enjoy!

The half-updo is a great hairstyle for girls with long thin hair because the pulled back portion creates the illusion of volume. Although this hairstyle would look good with straight hair as well, the soft waves help to make her hair look like it has more volume. All you have to do to recreate this look is create a middle part, gather some hair from the front of each side of your hair and pin it back. You can experiment with how much volume you want to add to your roots as well!

Blake is the queen of beachy waves! Blakes trademark waves can be recreated in a number of ways. You could use a curling iron, a wand, or just braid it and let it air dry.

This relaxed style is great for girls with long thin hair because it has a lot of movement without too many layers.

This is a super easy look to recreate and it is the perfect glamorous braid for girls with long thin hair who want to make their hair look thicker!
