Styling Tips for Long Thick Hair

If you’re struggling to get your thick hair under control, we hear you! Here are some ideas that will help:

  • Ask your stylist for layers next time you visit the salon – these are the perfect hairstyle option for long thick hair as they take off the weight of your hair and make your hair look more bouncy and healthy
  • If you want to make your hair lightern and not as thick, using an iron to straighten it out or even to add some curls with it is a good idea. Always use heat protection so you don’t damage your hair.
  • Having a regular trim on long hair is super important so you don’t develop split ends
  • Center parting always looks better on thick hair than sweeping your hair to the side – kind of common sense, but many women are adamant to having the hair in a certain way which just adds more volume to one side of the head.
  • Comb your hair properly before drying it out – it will help it to lie more flat and be easier to manage. If you’re letting it air dry, the same applies!
