The most important factor for a woman with thinning hair is finding the right hairstyle for them. Hair needs to be properly cut and shaped to accentuate your best facial features, complement your lifestyle and, of course, minimize the appearance of your hair loss.

Thinning hair should be managed in a way that will give you back your lifestyle, so that you are not consistently on edge or anxious that your hair will move and reveal the thinning areas. Your hair loss or thinning hair should not inhibit you from doing things you enjoy such as swimming, dancing, or dating because there are solutions to your hairstyling challenges.

At your next appointment with your hairdresser you may want to ask for some suggestions on different haircuts and hairstyling tips that will improve your appearance and help you feel better about yourself. This may involve a completely different look and three or four haircuts before you find your optimal colour and look.
