When talking about edgy hairstyles, you simply cannot miss the mullet. This is the perfect hairstyle for girls with thin hair, as it helps in adding the right amount of texture to fake volume. Adding a few face-framing layers at the front like Miley Cyrus helps in softening the look and makes it look chic.
02. Short bob

If you are looking to chop off your length but don’t want to experiment too much with the cut itself, you should definitely consider this short bob like Yami Gautam. This low maintenance haircut is perfect for lazy girls who prefer hairstyles that require minimal styling.
03. Curtain bangs

Another soft, feminine and uber-chic hairstyle trend of 2021 is curtain bangs. The best part about this hairstyle is that it looks really great on hair lengths and face shapes. Curtain bangs help soften your features as well as add more dimension to your hair.
04. Pixie

A short haircut that’s super experimental and looks good on all face shapes is the pixie. The best part about this hairstyle is that it is super versatile and can be easily customised as per your hair type, face shape, and personal preferences. If you have thick hair, you can actually consider getting a super voluminous pixie-like Scarlett Johansson.
05. Shag

We are so glad the shag haircut from the 80s and 90s is making a comeback this year. Thanks to all the choppy layers, this is a brilliant haircut to add more texture to thin, flat and limp hair. Pair this hairstyle with curtain bangs, and you have got yourself a super cool and trendy haircut right there!
