#1: Jaw-Length Choppy Edgy Bob

#3: An Easy to Style Short Bob with a Middle Part

An easy-to-style short bob with a middle part style is perfect for providing volume your thin hair. It's a jaw-length chop that's very feminine and versatile in shag, wavy, or straight styles. To class it up, you should use a styling or modeling spray plus a styler to comb and curl the tresses. Blow-drying your hair upside down can, however, bring out more volume.

Add texture/volume spray and blast in the opposite direction (without nozzle). For volume where needed, and down (with nozzle) to keep flatter, and then smooth ends to finish.

This bob haircut is perfect for women who have straighter, fine hair. Medium to fine hair would be less work styling. This very short bob isn't very suitable if you have curly hair, as the shape would change dramatically. If you have finer hair, a volume spray and heat protector will keep your hair full and strong.

#4: Ultraviolet & Platinum Layered Pixie

A stacked and layered pixie cut is one of the best short haircuts for fine thin hair. All of the layering will give your hair the illusion of density.

#5: Messy Short Choppy Hairstyle with Side Bangs

A messy, short, choppy hairstyle with side bangs is a great choice if you have fine hair. This short hairstyle for thin hair is called a blunt bob and it has textured ends.

The ends are point cut for a more shattered and messy vibe. To style, grab your curling iron and curl in one-inch sections with a flat iron and make sure your ends are straight. Bumble and Bumble dry spun texture spray will help with the messy texture.

Don't try to be perfect with the style. Messy is in! This is perfect for fine hair because it will look a lot fuller with it shorter. Also if you have thick hair, you can add silky texture or thin it out to make it look shattered.  Just a little bend with a curling iron or flat iron will make this look sexy.

#7: Side-Swept Wispy Bowl Cut

A bowl cut with some layering is an attractive short haircut for women with finer hair. If you're looking for short hairstyles for fine hair, this is a great choice.

This style builds the illusion of volume all the way around your hair. Plus, it will enhance and contour your facial features by how high or low the weight line is placed. A higher weight line makes this style look edgier.  A lower line is softer.

Adding bangs to a short haircut is perfect if you have a slightly longer facial shape.

For styling, apply a heat protectant and heat active products. Then, dry with round brushes, and use hand tension. Smooth it down for a clean polished style.

#9: Long Pixie Cut

A long pixie with side bangs will be flattering if you have short, thin hair. To keep the fullness around the sides, where you have lesser hair, you'll need fewer layers, especially if your hairdresser has added a fade to the sides.

Bangs for thin hair appear thinner if the length is longer than the chin added with several layers. Keeping more layers in the back will create fullness having more hair to work with.

All you need is your favorite texturing product like hair gel to separate and enhance the texture of the chop.

A strong structure in the hair was created, especially around the hairline. Length on top was left long to add plenty of texture.

When it comes to short pixies, there are a ton of variations in length and textures. For day-to-day styling, use a light mousse for hold (Aveda Phomollient) and a texture powder (Aveda Pure Abundance Hair Potion). Once dry, avoid using anything too heavy, like pomade, and weighing your hair down.

#18: Short Curly Bob with Bangs

A short curly bob with bangs is the ideal short hairstyle for thin hair that shows off the natural hair texture that's on the finer side.  Curls are the easiest and most fun way to go for quick volume when it comes to short, thin hair. They make a maximum style with minimal effort.

This short curly bob with bangs has added dimension to make your hair pop. For hair on the finer side, twist and carve out pieces randomly. Doing so, for instance, will give thin-haired women a fuller voluminous style.

If you have textured hair and are thinking about getting a curly bob, do it! Use a Moroccan oil curl mousse and Davines oi oil- by to style. It's definitely worth taking the time to finger coil sections and diffuse.

#21: Thin and Feminine Layered Lob

A layered, long bob is awesome for women with thin hair that lacks texture and volume. The exact length of the bob rests based on the way the face is shaped. If cheeks are more round, ask your stylist to cut an a-line just below the chin to draw the attention lengthwise. The cut is texturized one length with a side swept front piece.

To style a layered lob for thin hair, use a light foam before blowdrying and put dry shampoo on the roots. Then texture spray the rest of your hair.

Instagram @leegravessalon

#22: Short Angled Bob

A short, angled bob is a solid choice for fine hair because the angling removes weight from your hair strands, which allows your hair to appear fuller. This is an ideal cut for women with short, thin hair, who don't want to fuss with their hair and will benefit from the ease and versatility.

Using a texture spray as a finishing product is best for this haircut. Thin, fine hair tends to get weighed down by overusing products. The texture spray provides just enough grit to the thin hair and allows movement.

#26: Short Choppy Bob
