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.)

Tip: Opt for a blunt looking cut, so no layers anywhere but around your face -- they can make you look like you have less hair. See how Paltrow's blunt-looking cut looks more full than Momsen's layers?

Tip: If your hair is fine and curly, try adding short layers near the crown of your head but leaving the ends of hair blunt. This will give you some bounce and keep curls full.
