The best haircuts for older women with thin hair are the ones that create the illusion of thicker hair and bring out the best in your mane. With layers, bangs, different hair-cutting techniques, and textures, you can have a haircut that will make your hair look fuller. More importantly, these flattering hairstyles will make you look and feel younger!
1. Long Layered Haircut For Older Women With Thin Hair
Whether you have curly, wavy, or straight hair, long layers will make your mane look fuller and more voluminous. Many people don’t know exactly what long layers are, so I feel obliged to give you a brief explanation: long layers refer to the distance between the longest layer and the shortest layer on a particular hairstyle.
2. Shaggy Layers With Bangs
Shaggy layers remove any heaviness that may weigh your hair down. With shaggy layers, you can decide whether to add more volume or texture to your hair, or you can do both. Pro tip: pair shaggy layers with bangs for a complete look.
3. Voluminous Curly Bob
Thin curly hair lacks volume and texture, and short hairstyles are a godsend for everyone with thinning hair including curly. A voluminous curly bob will make your curls look bouncy and healthy. Your curl pattern will be enhanced and thin hair will be a thing of the past.
4. Voluminous Micro Bob
If you have thin straight hair, a voluminous micro bob (read: ear-length bob) will give your hair volume and texture. Besides that, micro bobs are low-maintenance hairstyles and you can always let them grow into a long bob aka lob.
5. 90s Layered Hair
The 90s layered hair features numerous layers, shaggy textures, and flipped ends. The biggest trademark of the iconic 90s hair with layers is volume which thin hair lacks, so it’s a perfect solution for those with thin hair.
6. Voluminous Silver Gray Hair With No Parting
There’s something so effortless and relaxing about a hairstyle with no parting, so it’s no wonder this hair parting is gaining more and more popularity. Besides that, no parting is responsible for giving you a volume-boosting effect and it looks amazing when paired with silver-gray hair.
7. Violet Red Copper Layered Hairstyle With Curtain Bangs
Opt for layers with curtain bangs to achieve volume-boosting and face-framing effects. Choose a vivid hair color like violet-red copper to make this hairstyle look more youthful and personalized.
8. Undercut Pixie Haircut For Thin Hair Women
Seldom hairstyles can give you so much volume and texture like undercut pixie cuts can. This cool hairstyle features voluminous hair on top with tapered sides creating a beautiful contrast between these textures.
9. Silver Platinum Blonde Short Bob

10. Long Blonde Hair With A Deep Side Part
A deep side part helps balance your features while giving your hair an extra oomph of volume. The good news is that deep side parting looks amazing on all hair textures from curly to straight.
11. Silver Layered Bob Cut
Nothing beats a layered bob cut when it comes to achieving lots of volume in your hair. Depending on your hair texture, you can opt for fewer or more layers to create a feathered-like texture that pairs well with all types of bangs.
12. Soft Curls
Soft, fluffy curls are a voluminous hairstyle by default, so if you already have wavy or curly hair, use curl cream to enhance your curl pattern. If you don’t have wavy or curly hair, you can always opt for a wavy perm, which is trending right now!
