20 Chic Low-Maintenance Haircuts for Thick Hair

Silk Press Bob

It takes a while to achieve a silk press, but once you’ve done it, it can leave you with an easy-to-maintain ‘do. For frizz-preventing friction, sleep on a silk pillowcase (such as the Slip Pure Silk Turban, $85) or use a silk bonnet (such as the Slip Pure Silk Pillowcase, $89) instead of sleeping on moisture or humidity.

Blunt Bangs

Despite teetering on bang territory, Schmidt says to go for it. “While blunt cuts aren’t my first choice, I do love blunt bangs for thick hair,” he says. In addition to not giving the hair a stringy, limp appearance, this fringe will lay nicely across the forehead.

Layered Bob

Lana Condor’s layered bob is the perfect hairstyle for thick hair if you’d like a piecier mane. It’s important to use texture products to define the pieceyness of this cut—such as IGK Body Language Rice Water Plumping and Thickening Hair Mist ($34) or Bumble and Bumble Thickening Dryspun Volume Texture Spray ($36)—so it doesn’t fall flat.
