Fine hair strands are very vulnerable and prone to ripping and breaking easily. Be gentle with your hair if you have fine strands to avoid snapping and ripping. Do not over-manipulate your hair because your strands wouldn’t be able to take it and avoid or reduce using detangling tools. Finger detangling works just fine if you have fine strands. Also, avoid putting too much weight on your strands. Protective styles are good, but don’t pack heavy hair on your strands.

Having briefly touched on what not to do and disadvantages of thin hair, i think we can start listing the advantages of thin hair.

1. Your Hair Dries Faster

When you have thin hair, your hair dries faster. No need sitting down waiting hours on end for your hair to dry. You don’t need hair dryers or extra help. Your hair just dries by mere contact with nothing.

2. Detangling is easier

Who needs to spend a whole day detangling hair? No one! When you have thin hair detangling your hair is cut in half. Your hair is fine and naturally smooth therefore it doesn’t get tangled as much especially if you have sparse or medium density hair. You don’t need detangling tools because your fingers work just fine.

3. Short Wash days

Wash days can be so stressful sometimes. You may even have to cancel impromptu invitations because it’s wash day and you need the entire 24 hours in a day even more. But when you have thin you can get away with shorter wash days. You have a less detangling session and hair absorbs products quicker. It also dries faster.

4. Styling is easy

Another advantage of thin hair is that it is very easy to style. You can easily swoop your hair into any direction you want it to go without massive problems. Wrapping your hair and putting them in ponytails and buns are also very easy to achieve.

5. You don’t need to use too much products

When you have thin hair you don’t need to overcoat your hair with products. You don’t go through as many shampoos and conditioners and other products as much as your thick hair counterparts. This is great because it means you spend less on products. If this is not an advantage of thin hair then I don’t know what is.

6. Frizz Is Your Bestfriend

Thick hair people are always running away from humidity and frizz. But when you have thin hair you literally have a different song. Frizz is your best friend. We need the bigness and extra volume. Therefore don’t be scared of humidity and don’t be afraid of frizz. In fact, you make a perfect match.
