Finding a style to suit thick, coarse hair can be challenging. Still, with the appropriate haircut and styling techniques, you can achieve an elegant yet manageable style that is stylish yet healthy-looking and straightforward to maintain.
Messy Bob
A messy bob is an effortless style that offers endless styling possibilities. Choppy layers, jagged edges, and texturizing products can enhance its look for maximum impact. Dark hair types look best as the contrast adds dimension. Additionally, bangs draw focus away from your face for additional size. Demi Lovato wears this casual, textured bob with pride. Her short length showcases her face while lengthening the neckline, while highlighting blonde baby lights add a softened edge. Overall, this effortless, chic, and carefree style suits nearly all fronts; try pairing it with either a side part or a deep side-part to emphasize your features!
Shaggy Bob
A shaggy bob is an ideal coarse haircut, as it adds texture and volume. To maintain its shape and style, however, regular trims should be scheduled to keep its kind intact and prevent your locks from growing too long. Additionally, use products tailored specifically for your type and texture to preserve color retention and avoid frizziness. No matter the surface of your locks – straight, wavy, or curly – a shaggy bob with bangs will always look chic and fashionable. Easy to style and sporting an irresistibly youthful vibe, this hairstyle makes an impressionful fashion statement while remaining simplistic. Add mesmerizing blonde highlights for extra texture or shine in this timeless cut!
Graduated Bob
A short graduated bob is ideal if you’re seeking an easy-to-maintain style. Short at the back and gradually longer at the front, this short graduated bob reduces weight on thick locks while adding volume and fullness to thin ones. This sweeping chocolate brown bob features an attractive graduated shape with shorter strands at its center. Additionally, its beautiful fringe frames around the face beautifully. Perfect for medium-textured hair and looks gorgeous when highlighted.
Contrary to popular belief, long-graduated bobs don’t need to look unruly and wild. This chin-length bob is an elegant choice that’s easy to manage and looks fantastic with blonde balayage highlights. Pair it with side bangs for an additional stylish finish.
Long Layers
Layers add texture, reduce weight, and create an unstructured yet stylishly unstructured style in long hair. They can also help accentuate natural waves of curly or wavy locks when placed correctly. An elegantly styled layered haircut featuring long top layers with short face-framing layers around the face can look exceptionally flattering, particularly on those with thick strands that are straight at the crown and curly at the bottom. This style works exceptionally well when styled long at the top with short, face-framing layers around the face. Make an appointment with your stylist to add long, feathered layers that create movement without creating a choppy finish. This cut works best on those with medium-length hair or longer, as it’s easy to manage and versatile for styling options. Ask them for a leave-in conditioner to control frizz.
Feathered Layers
Feathered layers are an easy and stylish way to add volume and texture to long locks, adding vibrancy and bounce that suit all face shapes and hair textures. Feathered layers can also be styled in various ways for optimal effect! This feathered pixie bob features soft layers to add natural volume and thickness to the hair, and angled side bangs frame your face and draw attention to your eyes. This style is effortless to manage and works particularly well on women with medium-length locks. Beth Behrs’ feather cut highlights her straight, silky locks, adding light waves and feathered ends for a gorgeous 70s vibe. Additionally, this style can help thin hair appear thicker and fuller by making individual strands look thicker and fuller.
