As previously stated, fine hair can be delicate and extra-sensitive to damaging chemicals and heat. To give your hair a break from styling and backcombing, Arrojo recommends adding some unique updos to your hairstyle arsenal, as the lovely Kate Bosworth continually demonstrates with her chic upstyles. "Kate deals with [her fine hair] a little more creatively, creating a variety of special occasion updos that add so much visual interest that one does not notice how fine her strands are."

Funky braids or twisted 'dos can perfectly frame your face and add some extra flair to your overall look — plus, fine locks can be the perfect non-competing backdrop for a bold headpiece or hair accessory (we loved this example on Kirsten Dunst). We'd say that these gorgeous and proud fine-haired ladies are getting us majorly inspired. Who needs extensions when your fine hair can look this cute?
