Tip: For hair that is fine and straight, try a haircut with a few long (not short) layers like Aniston's. But be careful: Too many layers can thin out the bottom of your hair, which makes you look like you have less of it.

Tip: Keep fine hair on the shorter side (so it doesn't get weighed down). The longest you should go is about an inch or two past your shoulders. Hair longer than that will be tough to add volume to when styling.

Tip: For a special occasion, try adding a hair piece (like Knightley's) for updos. It will give the illusion that you have a lot more hair. This is also good for short hair. Check out hair extensions in our reviews section.

Tip: Volumizing products are a must. Try a volumizing gel or mousse for a boost when styling. And stay away from leave-in conditioner, which just weighs down fine hair. Instead, use a non-sulfate shampoo. It's less drying so you'll need less conditioner. (One to try: Alterna Life Solutions Volume Restore Shampoo, $24.)
