7 Ways to Make Thin Hair Look Thicker Instantly
We’d all like our hair to be straighter, lighter, thicker, curlier, shorter—or whatever our friends’ hair is that ours isn’t. The wonderful thing about hair is that you can manipulate it into anything you want.
Fine hair has its perks—especially with sleek styles—but it can sometimes lack life. If you have thin hair, achieving full volume might feel impossible. But don’t worry—these seven tips will help you make your hair look thicker in no time.
1. The Art of the Blow Dryer
Nothing beats a salon blow-dry for instant volume—but you can also get great results at home. Use a round brush to lift your roots and create a voluminous curve. Blow-dry in the opposite direction your hair naturally falls to enhance lift and fullness.
2. Master the Tease
Teasing your crown before styling can add serious height. Use a comb and gently push hair toward the scalp—avoid aggressive back-and-forth motions to prevent breakage. Finish with hairspray and smooth the top layer for a polished look.
3. Dry Shampoo
Dry shampoo isn’t just for greasy roots—it also adds instant volume. Apply it at your roots or through damp hair before styling to boost lift and hold.
4. Try a New Colour
Colour can create the illusion of thickness. Shading techniques like ombre or highlights add dimension. Your stylist can help you choose what works best for your hair type and goals. Explore our hair care range to keep coloured hair healthy.
5. Hair Extensions
Of course! Extensions are one of the easiest ways to achieve thicker-looking hair. Our 100% Remy human hair extensions come in a variety of styles and colours—including ombre sets—to instantly add volume and dimension.
6. Get a Haircut
Shorter styles often appear fuller. Regular trims can keep ends healthy and maintain volume. A blunt bob or a cut with subtle face-framing layers can give the illusion of thicker hair. Ask your stylist for a cut that supports your hair goals.
7. Choose a Good Style
Certain hairstyles enhance volume better than others. Braids, buns, and ponytails with texture or twists are great for making hair appear thicker. Pull apart a braid or wrap it into a bun to add fullness and shape.
Your thick hair goals don’t have to be far-fetched. Consult with a trusted hair extensionist to find the best method for your needs. At Jadore Hair Supplies, we specialise in premium natural hair extensions—with same-day dispatch and express delivery available across Australia.
