    You are confusing “thin” hair with “fine” hair. None of the women in these photos has thinning hair; they all have fine hair. A hair site should know the difference! Still, the photos are nice.

      Thank you for your comment, Jhonea!

      Indeed none of these women have thinning hair, however, they to do have thin hair, which refers to the density of the follicles. While some women can have thin coarse hair, some have thin fine hair, fine hair referring to the thickness/diameter of the actual individual strand. In the examples illustrated in this article, we have women with thin hair, while some may also have fine hair, for more clarification, you can check out our article dedicated especially to fine hair: https://hairmotive.com/bob-haircuts-for-fine-hair/.

      Have a great start of the week!

      You could try going for a layered or shaggy pixie cut or, depending on how long or short you want your hair to be, consider a short bob too. Either way, add layers or go for a textured cut if you want to add volume to your hair and also make it easier to style naturally. Hope this helps!
