Try a shorter hairstyle to add volume

Consider cutting your hair to a bob, lob, or layered style. Shorter hair appears thicker and fuller because there's less weight pulling it flat against the scalp. Ask your stylist for layers that add movement and volume.

Why It Works

Long, thin hair accentuates the appearance of hair loss because the weight drags it down. A shorter cut with layers creates the illusion of density and bounce. It's also more practical for new mothers and easier to maintain.

Tips

• Layers are key — a blunt cut at one length can still look flat
• A side part often creates more volume than a center part
• This is a cosmetic solution that helps you feel better while waiting for natural regrowth
