Argh why do stylists thin out thin hair??

[Anonymous]

How quickly did it grow out for you OP?

More complicated the cut is, more often customers come back.

Same. I have fine hair but a TON of it. I'm not sure how else to get rid of the bulk/weight, assuming I don't want layers.

Hmm, I also have a lot of fine hair. My hair is also textured (type 2b) and frizz prone. Thinning sheers make my hair look like a helmet. They kill my texture because my waves can't hold up to them, but they can actually increase volume because with less weight my hair shrinks up and has a lot of volume. So they give me 90s newscaster hair.

Once a stylist used thinning sheers on my hair when it was pretty short and it's the worst haircut I've ever had. No style or definition, just volume, but short. Like an afro but straight and on a white woman. I cried.

PP here. How do you take the weight/bulk out (or do you not)? Happy to try something else, summer is brutal on my half wavy half straight hair.
