Update Your Hairstyle
Question: I have tailbone-length thick hair. It's stick-straight and never holds a style. I like it long, but I would like to give it a new look. Can you suggest a way to update my hairstyle?
Answer: For tailbone-length thick hair that is stick-straight and can't hold a style, we advise lopping off a little length - you'll still be able to pull it back if it's below your shoulders. Then get some long, graduated layers - the shortest layer should be no higher than your shoulder. This will give your hair a bit of shape but still allow you to toss it into a high ponytail or a low bun (two great styling options for your type of hair). Another thing to experiment with is a heat-styling tool that will enable you to change the texture of your tresses in no time.
