37. Long Jaggy Waves. There’s nothing we love more than soft waves! If your locks are naturally wavy, this layered look will help to create an interesting, elegant downdo.

A voluminous mane has long been one of the most desirable attributes – and many women would give anything to have gorgeous tresses like yours. Embrace your mane while making it more manageable with these super flattering haircuts for thick hair of any length and texture!

Having a hairdo that suits your texture, face shape, and complexion is truly the key to owning your style. It’ll make you feel confident and highlight your best features while minimizing the time you spend taking care of your chic locks.

And now we have compiled a list of the most flattering coifs! Get ready to find your ideal crop – maybe even a few!

1. Face-Framing Layers. When we think of the best coifs for abundant manes, an image of long straight strands almost immediately pops into our mind. Upgrade it with face-framing bangs – and you’ve got a winning look.

2. Long Length with Butterfly Pieces. Apart from being extremely voguish, the butterfly downdo delivers one of the most flattering looks, since it removes weight and builds volume around the crown while retaining length and holding the shape.

3. Piece-y Step Layers. Another fantastic hairdo for those keen to keep their mane long. Adding short and long layers will stop it from falling flat – and accentuate the soft waves.

4. Voluminous Stacked Bixie. Pixies are just perfect for ladies with bushy manes, because they minimize styling time – as well as subtly reveal how lush your locks are.

5. Textured Lob with Movement. Not a fan of silver, but would like to experiment with color? Mauve deserves to be at the top of your list!

6. Medium-Length Choppy Shag. Make your rich mane less bulky with a chopped medium-length crop. This coif features disconnected layers with jagged ends. The style of the crop and highlights make the locks appear absolutely weightless. The balayage brightens them, delivering lightness and glitz.

7. Long Chunky Highlighted Waves. This overflowing mane is stunning. The dimension, gloss, sleekness, and length… Everything about this downdo screams – sophistication! Don’t even get us started on those captivating ripples. Or should we talk about the exotic feel the chestnut-brown balayage adds to the dark brunette locks? Good to know this look can be replicated. The same silhouette, some lovely loose beachy waves, light brown highlights, and voila!

8. Shoulder-Length Jaggy Bed-Head. If nature gives you a lemon… you know the rest. Find perfection in imperfections. If your mane is not only bushy but also unruly, then just go for a flattering messy downdo such as this beauty here. Get a shoulder-length shag, use layers to thin out the strands, a little tousle, and your fabulous mane will do the rest of the work.

9. Downdo with Face-Framing Layers. Layered downdos are a beautiful solution. It is also a low-maintenance option, as texture, volume, and beautiful bounce come effortlessly!

10. Medium-to-Long Natural Waves. Dealing with coarse strands can be tricky – but finding the right coif will help. These natural-looking waves work wonders in shaping your mane into perfection. And remember – a smoothing serum goes a long way.

11. Platinum Pixie with Lifted Crown. If you prefer piece-y crops, this stunning pixie could be your top pick. It is elegant and flawless, showing off the neck and shoulders.

12. Midi Shag with Piece-y Bangs. A rich medium-length mane makes a pretty combination with piece-y bangs, resulting in a cute shag. It is a hot trend and an easy-to-maintain hairdo!

13. Dark Chocolate Sliced Strands. No matter how obsessed we are with unicorn hair, dark brown shades will never go out of style! Layers look great when they feature razored ends to subtly reduce weight and volume.

14. Soft Messy Bob. Ladies with dense locks can go for a creative style like this one! Tousled strands and a sophisticated hair color will make you stand out from the crowd.

15. Midshaft-to-Ends Butterfly Layers. This long downdo features a stunning cascade of disconnected layers running from cheekbones toward the bottom to frame the face and produce tons of movement.

16. Curtain Bangs and Angled Layers. This shoulder-length style with a chocolaty balayage and ’90s layers is a good fit for coarse manes since it thins out the dense strands and lets them give off their natural volume.

17. Below-the-Shoulders Wolf Shag. The parted bangs reduce the weight of your locks, nicely frame your face, and draw attention to your eyes and forehead. For the best results, keep your coif shoulder-length and the ends shaggy to deliver a nice tousled effect. Subtle highlights or lowlights come in handy here for a more relaxed, fashionable vibe.

18. Layered Lob with Bronde Balayage. Multitone color schemes and choppy finishes easily turn regular lobs into low-maintenance coifs: the balayage is merciful to grown-out roots, and the razor-cut ends invoke movement.

19. Side-Parted Lob with Highlights. Layered lobs are appropriate solutions because they save the mane from feeling bulky and shapeless while retaining enough length for versatile styling.

20. Mid-Back Bob with Balayage. Highlights bring interest to the bottom part of your lob. As your natural color stays at the top, the growing roots will blend into your coif instead of ruining it. Easy to maintain and gorgeous!

21. Medium Shag with Feathered Finish. This airy style shows how exterior layering coupled with sliced-out ends can make a bulky mane look much lighter and bouncier without sacrificing the volume.

22. Straight Wolf Shag with Textured Layers. With full choppy bangs and a set of textured layers starting at the eyes and falling all the way down, this airy shag succeeds in putting the focus on the face.

23. Shoulder-Length Shag with Face-Framing. If you are after wash-and-go crops, look no further than this fun and effortless shaggy style, which also gives you a nice chance to balance your bone structure with bangs and near-the-face layers.

24. Textured Silver Bob. Bobs will never go out of style! Especially when you opt for metallic silver – a trend that’s stronger than ever.

25. Balayage for Coarse Manes. Colors make your strands fun and customize your downdos for unruly locks. No doubt, a hand-painted balayage is one of the best solutions. This technique suggests applying the color by hand, making the result look natural and fresh.

26. Dip-Dyed Long Mane with Curtain Bangs. Having an overflowing mane, you don’t want it to hide your facial features completely, all the more so as you can emphasize the eyes or cheekbones with trendy curtain bangs.

27. Medium-Length Makeover. Craving for perfect sun-kissed strands? The contrast of colors created by highlights gives depth and dimension. Match it with some waves for an even more stunning look.

28. Plentiful Flared Lob. A-line lobs fall into the best crops for bushy manes because a longer length in the front keeps them from looking too bulky, even if their volume is maximized with loose waves.

29. Long Layers with Ash Brown Balayage. These straight strands show quite a sleek length down to the bottom where the ends are slightly thinned out for a lighter feel and where the whole bounce thrives.

30. Rounded Bob with Depth and Movement. Cropped perfectly blunt at the bottom and featuring only a few exterior layers for movement, this dimensional bob offers the shape that is sure to save your coif from looking triangular.

31. Layered Bob with Face Illumination. The shorter length of this crop translates into a better lift at the roots that helps to elongate the square face, while the swoopy front pieces emphasize the cheekbones, diverting attention from the strong jawline.

32. Caramel Brown Hair with Internal Layers. Long coifs for full strands don’t need lots of layering on top to get the weightless look this piece-y style boasts — it is created with interior layers, wispy bangs, and caramel highlights.

33. Soft Brown Shag with Bottleneck Bangs. With ample volume left at the crown, this wolf is nicely debulked throughout the mid-length and sliced out at the ends to release those natural soft waves.

34. Edgy Medium Shag. Medium downdos work great on chunky strands – and this is one of our absolute favorites!

35. Loose Waves with Dimensional Highlights. Want to experiment with another hair color without dyeing your entire head? A dimensional balayage is the way to go! Creating an illusion of naturally sun-kissed mane, this one looks stunning.

36. Contrasting Soft Waves. A chic lob that’s just perfect for bushy locks. The highlights will make your strands look great even if you’re running late and need to skip shampoo!

37. Long Jaggy Waves. There’s nothing we love more than soft waves! If your locks are naturally wavy, this layered look will help to create an interesting, elegant downdo.

38. U-shape Mane with Swoopy Layers. Looking at this amazing cascade of curls, you won’t say that plentiful manes lack movement, although the style requires mastering blow-drying to shape those feathered ends in the best way.

39. Feathery Brunette with Golden Babylights. Nothing can visually lighten chunky locks better than a good feathering job, except for golden threads infused into the hair to accentuate the wispiness of the flipped-up tips.

40. Blunt Midi with Swoopy Layers. This edgy platinum blonde style combines blunt ends on the bottom with carefully placed layers throughout the perimeter to eliminate any heaviness.

41. Wavy Caramel Brown Lob. Easy downdos for luxuriant locks can effortlessly pair interior layers with blunt-cut ends, thus retaining dimension and removing damaged strands while releasing texture – complemented with highlights here.

42. Voluminous Blowout for Choppy Mane. This long downdo adorned with long graduated bangs strikes the eye with a pretty unexpected contrast between the perfectly polished top and the fairly choppy bottom.

43. Tousled Layered Style with Glare. You don’t need a whole set of highlighted ribbons to dramatize the texture derived from layering. Sometimes, a barely-there balayage is your best bet.

44. Armpit-Length Chop with Wispy Bangs. If you can’t cope with a dense fringe, that’s not a reason to ignore this trendy addition. Follow the example of this clever girl who rocks see-through bangs with a softer shag version.
