The Best Haircuts For Thick Hair, According to Hairstylists

If you have thicker hair that you're committed to keeping short, hairstylist Cory Aaron Scott tells us that you can't go wrong with a pixie cut. "Whether you choose a long bob or a pixie, a stylist now has techniques and tools to thin out your hair," he said. "I use thinning shears to remove weight from the hair, meaning hair appears less dense. That way, hair lays softer and looks more natural."

The undercut is similar to the "disconnected" haircut trend that took off earlier this year in that it's characterised by the hair being cut much shorter on the bottom portion of the head than the top.

"I find an undercut is super cool and chic," Scott said. "That's where you shave the back nape area of the head, which creates less dense hair in the back. It gives hair the illusion of laying flatter against the head."

According to Scott, this haircut is also convenient when you want to keep longer hair from sticking to your face and neck when the weather is warmer.
