3 Ways to Wear the Coziest Skirt Ever

How do you keep volume in thin hair?

With thin hair, you have to be aware that curls or other heat-based styles won't hold as long in your hair because of the fine texture. In order to get styles to last, you have to use volumizing products like a styling mist or a holding gel. Expert hair stylist, Renee Valerie, says that you should never hesitate to layer products to achieve the fullness and lasting style that fine hair requires.

Using sprays or gels will help create a long-lasting voluminous style, while also protecting the color and health of your hair. So don't be scared to try new products — and even test them out together!

Best Hairstyles For Thin Hair

Layers

To start, a good layered haircut will make all the difference with fine hair. When you get a haircut with lots of layers, this helps to create dimension in the hair which gives the illusion of volume, especially when styled right. This added texture makes styling so easy because it gives your hair way more life and movement.

Half Up Half Down

There's many ways you can go about this — and I'll definitely get into more options — but you can't go wrong with a classic half-up half-down. This is a great style when you're on the end of your hair wash cycle, and need to hide some of the grease. Add a touch of dry shampoo and throw it up in this style, and you're good to go! Plus, it gets even cuter when you style it with a scrunchie or a bow to add a fun touch to the look!

Blowout

A classic blowout is one of my favorite styles for my thin hair! I typically do this when my hair's freshly wet out of the shower. I'll soak it in a styling gel or voluminous mousse to help give it volume and allow the curls to hold. Then I'll either blow it dry or use my Dyson Airwrap for the curls. The trick is to add strengthening hairspray after for an even longer hold.

Claw Clip

I love using claw clip because I can tease the underside of my hair for some added volume and use the claw clip to push up my hair even more. This is another great way to add volume to otherwise flat hair — and it's super easy to do! You just need a teasing comb, a claw clip, and voila! You're out the door, and looking fab!

Beachy Waves

Beachy, textured waves are sure to bring life to your thin hair! I love doing this fun hairstyle when I want a more textured look. I'll either braid my hair the night before to get the waves, or individually curl my hair tightly to get these tighter peachy waves like above. Then, all you need to do is add a texture spray and scrunch your hair. These usually last 2-3 days for me!

Messy Bun

Ah, the messy bun. Quite easily the best and quickest way to deal with your thin hair, giving it the illusion of texture or volume. I also happen to love how my hair looks when I take it out of the messy bun — I get all these kinky waves that give life to your hair. Just throw it up in a bun without trying too hard, and pull out some face-framing pieces. You'll look like you have voluminous hair in no time!

Half-Up Half-Down Braid

This is a super fun hairstyle if you're looking for something intermediate or a little more complicated than our other styles! The easiest way I like to achieve this style is by taking two pieces from either side of your hair and braiding them individually. Then wrap them around your head, tucking them into each other to create and invisible braid like above. Take it a step further by adding in beads, accessories, or flowers into the braid. A very whimsical, bridal style — or every something flirty for everyday — if I say so myself!

Using Hot Rollers

For this style, I actually used hot rollers to achieve a bouncy looking blowout. Whenever I use hot rollers, my blowout lasts much, much longer — this is because when you clip them to your head, they cool off in the curled shape for better hold. This is perfect for thin, fine hair that normally doesn't hold curls too well. It's my go-to style when I need the curls to really last all day long.

Target Poplin Midi Skirt

I am having a serious obsession with poplin lately, and this Target skirt does it so cute! If you're looking for a summer essential that's adorable but still affordable, then this is it! It's only $30, so I would run to grab it immediately! It even has a matching top too.

Halogen Midi Skirt

This midi skirt is a bit more elevated, so you can wear it to formal events or dinners this summer — the options are endless! This pick is also on sale, down from $99 to $69, and we love a bargain! I would style this with dainty sandals like above and a silk tank! Trés chic!

Nordstrom Tiered Maxi Skirt

A tiered maxi skirt is the key to unlocking the boho chic or cottagecore vibe that's so popular this summer! You can wear these with sneakers like above for a more casual look, or just throw on a pair of flip flops for the beach.

(🔥 Hot tip: I like to sometimes wear these as a tube dress to switch it up!)

Abercrombie Scalloped Straight Skirt

This scalloped, linen midi is super flattering with its straight fit! It's also a very elegant style that I'm super into right now. The bonus? It's actually on sale for $49.99, and it comes in purple and black as well! This one is sure to sell out quickly!

Amazon Button Midi Skirt

Amazon offers so many great summer pieces, but for a much more affordable price point than most! The buttoned up style is definitely on trend at the moments, and who can really beat this bargain? They offer this best-seller in multiple styles as well, so you can peruse the site for different options!

Zara Midi Skirt

This cute skirt is 100% cotton, which we love for breathability! Plus the pleats at the bottom give some extra volume, making this skirt a standout in your closet! This way, you're able to dress it up for the evening and dress it down for the day. Versatility is key for an everyday essential like midi skirts!

Zara Satin Skirt

Everyone needs at least one midi satin or silk skirt in their wardrobe, and I happen to love this one from Zara! I have it, and genuinely wear it so many different ways and to many different occasions. I love how it can be styled effortlessly with a white tee and sandals like above! And for under $50, it's a great deal to unlock multiple new outfit combinations.

Old Navy Crinkle Maxi Skirt

Another fabulous under $30 option that's on sale at Old Navy! This crinkle skirt will be great to throw on during a hot, summer day to make you look elevated, but still comfortable. I love wearing skirts like this on casual days because I can easily work in them, and then make my way to dinner in the evening right after. Another 10/10 option!

Banana Republic Smocked Waist

Smocked waist skirts are great because they can be really flattering around the hip and waist area, especially when worn with tanks or crop tops like above. This one is available at Banana Republic Factory, which means it's super discounted from its original price — love! This will be a summer go-to for sure!

Farm Rio Lace Skirt

Umm, did someone say cottagecorebecause this definitely fits the aesthetic! It looks straight out of Pride and Prejudice with the stunning crochet and lace detailing. Since it's on sale (and Farm Rio hardly ever goes on sale), I think I'm going to have to grab this one myself for the ultimate Mamma Mia summer!
