If you have thin hair and an office job, you’ve probably stressed out a time or two about how to wear your hair in the office. Men and women can often become self conscious with thin hair and having to work in a setting around people in close quarters, although there’s no reason to be! However, since you most likely can’t wear hats to your office job, what can you do to make the most out of your thin hair at work? There are multiple hairstyles for men and women that can really look great in the office, even if you hair is super thin!
Women
The Classic Shoulder-Length Cut is a great hairstyle that you can let fall naturally for a wavy look, curl, or straighten. You can also put it up in a ponytail. This cut and style is the most versatile of all the cuts due to seemingly endless opportunities in both the office and for those relaxing after work happy hours!
The Bob is also a versatile hairstyle. No matter your hair color, this can look stunning. There are so many different types of Bobs, but the most popular office Bob is the crisp cut. With flat, clean edges, you can let it fall, trimming out your jawline and framing your face. This hair can be parted on either side or down the middle, and feel free to throw a braid or two in there to show your creative side at the office.
The Ombre Ponytail is another hairstyle that looks super professional while keeping is sexy. The brown to blonde fade, if done correctly, in a tight ponytail shows contrast of color and a slick, elegant look exposing your facial features and bone structure. This style works with all types of hair lengths, as long as it’s long enough to put in a ponytail!
Men
For men, thinning hairstyles tend to be a bit more difficult to come across. Men’s hair thins quicker and more significantly than women’s hair, but there are still dozens of styles for the office!
The High Fade Sweep Back is a perfect example of a clean, sharp cut for the office. While there isn’t much versatility with it, it’s an all around American boy cut. Take a #1 or #2 clipper to high and tight on the sides, while leaving the top at your desired length. Sweep the front back with a comb, add some product, and BOOM, you’ve got yourself a professional, sharp looking style for the office on any day!
The Messy Look is a more relaxed hairstyle, but can still be pulled off in the office. With offsetting attire, such as a chinos and a button up, your messy look hair can actually look like a modern professional. There are tons of products out there specifically for The Messy Look. In most cases, you’ll get a dab of product, spread it around your hands, and rub it through your dry hair. Give your hair a “towel rub” but with your hands, and your hair should come out looking messy, but fantastic! Continue shaping specific sections for the exact look your gong for!
