25 Volume-Boosting Hairdos for Women Over 50 With Thin Hair (2024)

#1: Face-Framing Haircut with Soft Waves

Consider going for a haircut that frames your face with soft waves. A chic, long, and textured bob cut can give finer hair the look of movement and fullness. A cute way to style your longer bob is with a 1-inch barrel. Curl the hair around your face downwards and backward to create a curtain bang style. Add body to the root of the rest of the curls using a root powder, such as the one from Hairstory.

#2: Natural Salt-and-Pepper Pixie Crop

Pixie hairstyles can accentuate your mature features in a beautiful and feminine way. Adorn this feminine style by incorporating some longer, delicate strands around your hairline, including the areas near your ears and temples. Pair this with a textured crop top for some extra hair volume and a cute fringe. For styling, use the texturing paste to define hair ends well and to add some desired body.

#3: Razor Cut Shaggy Hair with Face-Framing Bangs

Sport a razor-cut, shaggy hairstyle paired with face-framing bangs for a casual look. This style imparts body and texture to thinner, aging hair. First, gather your hair into a bun. Then, extract the parts you wish to serve as bangs and face frames. Trim these pieces to suit the shape of your face. Then, blend the rest of your hair to meet the cut parts and create a perfect shag hairstyle. If you prefer low-maintenance hairstyles, razors are perfect. They create a soft texture, allowing your hair to grow out beautifully over an extended period.

#4: Short Graduated Cut with Fringe

Enjoy a fresh new look with ashort, layered cut and a fringe. Enhance your appearance with a sleek graduated bob designed with long sections that frame your face. This style brings out the shorter layers on top that are flattering for smaller, round faces. Additionally, this style includes extra long sections to style, while also featuring shorter layers.

#5: Medium Wispy Layers and Choppy Bangs

Medium-length hair with choppy bangs and wispy layers are a fashionable choice. Long textured bobs are suitable haircuts for older women with thin hair. Thin hair can look fuller with a well-rounded cut and heavy bangs. Adding in some texture at the ends adds some movement to the hair without reducing its weight. Textured bangs frame the eyes beautifully and brighten up the face.

#6: Very Short Tapered Pixie on Grey Hair

A very short tapered pixie cut looks great on grey hair. A classic crop can enhance the appearance of your thin hair. A little wave and texture in your hair can add fullness. But, a pixie cut can create fullness in every hair texture with its fuller crown and tapered sides. You can either wear your pixie cut long to frame your face or style it to draw attention upwards for a bolder look.

#7: Sleek Medium Hair with See-Through Bangs

Medium-length hair styled sleek with see-through bangs look chic. As you age, creating fuller-looking hair can seem daunting. But with some key tips, you’ll gain confidence quickly. First, I recommend a solid blunt cut. This gives your hair a full shape and can be paired with soft, full bangs. Second, using hair color can add texture and fullness to your hair. When your hair grows out, and the color starts to fade, it may seem flatter. At that time, you should get a touch-up.

#8: Thin Rounded Bob with Shorter Layers

If you’ve had thin hair your whole life or as you’ve aged, finding the right hairstyle is vital for volume and confidence. I suggest a short graduated bob. This style adds volume and definition to the edges of your hair. It also benefits from added bangs and shorter layers at the crown for extra body.

#9: Pixie Bob with Choppy Layers and Bangs

Pixie cuts are excellent haircuts for mature women with thin hair, providing an easy style with plenty of texture and body. When asking for this cut, request a ‘bixie,’ a blend of a pixie with feathered facial framing and a graduated bob at the back. When you want more fullness in your hair, using Cult King Hair Powder is ideal. For added volume and as a dry shampoo, apply the powder to clean, dry hair.

#12: Silver Blonde Bob with Side-Swept Bangs

If you are an older woman looking for a haircut suited to thin hair, consider a silver blonde bob with side-swept bangs. The silver blonde bob has variety in length, adding dimension and versatility. For a more asymmetric look, style a longer facial-framed pixie to one side. Alternatively, for a symmetrical style, part it down the middle.

Ask your stylist for a textured lob that creates texture at your hair tips without adding many layers. This can elevate your look, especially if you add face-framing layers. These layers can easily work with glasses while staying on trend. For a pop of color, try applying the Four Seasons Violet dye to your natural grey hair for a modern style with a violet tone.

The hair reveals an amazing change to a vibrant pink and sassy style! First, I would lighten my client’s hair for color vibrancy. Then, I would ensure her hair is healthy enough to lift. After applying the pink dye, I would trim her hair. Adding layers can create volume and a texturized finish.
