Hair Style for thin asian hair - 01-05-2010, 12:32 PM

Hi guys

I have a problem and that is my thin asian hair.
A lot of asian guys who style their hair have thick hair that lets them flair it.
I can't style it because of how thin it is.

Is there a solution to this?
So is the problem my hair or am I just styling it wrong?
Please let me know.

this is a picture of my hair.

Try teasing.
Have you tried straightening? then apply styling products?

Use hair gel or hair spray. It works most of the time.




I love Japan!!!

If you can find a Tony&Guy hairdressers near you or can access their website they sell something called 'Label. M Ressurection Style Dust', which is incredible stuff. It's basically a kind of light powder which works like a mesh styling wax almost but doesn't weigh your hair down and gives lots of volume. If you have a layer cut, you could easily use it to create flair.

Teasing is when u "back comb" your hair. Example: grab some of your hair in a certain area of your head. Then take a comb and start from the bottom/roots and comb it downwards, then gradually start a little higher. This will help your hair stand up well and it'll give it a more volume look. (Search "teasing hair" on youtube and you can find out how to tease your hair). [Hairspray is also needed. Applied to the amount of hair you grab and before you start teasing it]

If teassing your hair doesn't work...try using a flat iron straightener and straightening your hair which will make your hair feel lighter and smoother, thus it'll be easier to using a styling product to hold your hair however you want. [Tip: for spikes; easier to spike up/keep your hair up if you use a straighten the hair for spikes in a upward position]

-- I've had this same kind of problem when I first tried to style my hair(I'm Asian as well). But...when I got a straightener it helped a lot! --
