BTs: Disguise Thinning Hair: Prevention One of the fastest ways to create the illusion of more abundant hair is to cut it off, lopping off inches and adding strategic layers. Shorter hair tends to look healthier and have more volume, since it’s not weighed down by extra inches, says Edward Tricomi, the New York City-based master stylist and cofounder of Warren-Tricomi Salons. Layers add volume, too—ask that layers be concentrated near your face while the back is left full, to create the illusion of both body and thickness, says George Papanikolas, a bi-coastal hairstylist and colorist who works at Andy Lecompte Salon in Los Angeles and Rita Hazan Salon in New York City. If you’d like bangs, make sure they start further back on your head so the fringe looks full. Here’s the upside of having to cover up all those grays: color swells your hair’s cuticle, making it bigger in diameter and lending extra volume, says Papanikolas. Your healthy color plan: touch up roots just once a month and highlights every two to three to avoid weakening the hair by over-processing it, and aim a few shades lighter than your natural color to make visible patches of scalp or a too-wide part less noticeable
