Best Bobs for Thin Hair That Make It Look Fuller

Blunt Bob

“The best bob haircuts for thinning hair are ones that focus on shape and fullness,” says Korab. “Blunt bobs and lobs are ideal for creating the illusion of thicker hair,” celebrity hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos previously told us. Korab explains that “blunt bobs work especially well because a strong perimeter instantly makes the hair look thicker.”

Opting for a blunt cut over layers is the key here. Celebrity hairstylist Gina Rivera previously recommended avoiding excessive, choppy layers on thin hair, as they can make strands appear limp and less voluminous. Instead of dramatic layering, Korab says this cut relies on “internal shaping to keep the hair looking dense while still allowing movement.”

By keeping the fullness at the ends, a blunt bob creates the illusion of thicker hair, while remaining undeniably chic. “Overall, it’s about clean lines and smart structure that give the illusion of fuller, healthier hair,” says Korab.
