Delicate, fine strands can put up a strong fight against volume, even when armed with your toughest contenders; rollers, thermal brushes, and strong hold sprays. But without the right haircut, your strands remain powerless. However, with the right amount of layering and length in the right places, your locks could be crowned the undefeated champ of full-bodied, flowing volume.

No matter your ranking, hair type or texture, we've got a full range of styles ready to give your locks the gains needed to achieve bodybuilder status. Take your pick from ethereal and romantic curves, rough rider, cropped texture or fluttery, layers with twinkly accents for lovers of length. We've also paired each style with full-proof products to keep your locks satisfied and full for days.

Don't think we'll leave your delicate strands starving, it's time they switch to a full-fat diet.

Want a glowing aura with radiant locks to match? The Halo cut is as angelic as the name suggests. The heavenly features lie in her romantic curves, round silhouette and bouncy layers, making her a harmonious match with curly and coily textures. Ethereal in nature and starring divine details such as light face-framing layers, brow-grazing bangs and a voluminous crown, the Halo cut offers more than a crown of light rays.

With a style sending your curls to new heights, it's crucial that you use the right products to prevent a fall from heaven. When it comes to weightless hold, frizz control and lasting root lift, curl mousse reign supreme. The right mousse will help to preserve body and bounce in between washes. To finish and polish, I find that scrunching through a weightless oil on dried curls, helps to loosen any stiffness and restores shine

Picture waltzing into a cosy, dimly lit jazz club with a smoky atmosphere. Inviting warm golden lights barely illuminate plush, velvet booths and dark mahogany tables. Sipping on a Manhattan, you right feel at home and with the Micro bob's classy sophistication, you look right at home too.

A classic and timeless silhouette becomes easily accessible through it's sharp, defined exterior. With a cheekbone defining length, your hairs natural fullness and volume are accentuated. To achieve all the floaty flicks and waved kinks that the Micro bob has to offer, it's important that you prime accordingly.

Starting with a volume root spray before misting with a leave-in treatment (I highly recommend Davine's Oi All In One Milk) to battle any stubborn frizz. Once dry, finish with a dry wax, this adds the right amount of separation and texture without the crunch and tangles.

Want the cheat code to volume? Look no further than the Choppy Bob. Whether you want to keep its textured layers hidden and internal for a more subtle finish or whether you wanna go full throttle with short, razored layers, this style is sure to deliver all of the fullness your fine strands desire.

Another thing certain with the Choppy bob is the enhancement of your hairs natural movement. This shoulder-length crop combined with its razored texture, holds the ability to give pin-straight hair shape and body or to give wavy and curly textures sexy shag appeal. For styling, give your strands a well deserved, heat-free vacation from hot tools and get familiar with the all-scrunchable, I-woke-up-like-this charm that heroes such as sea salt and dry texturizing sprays have to offer.

Betty Boop was onto something, the Curly Pixie makes for an iconic statement in both the cartoon world and in real life. Patterns of high-definition curls swirled onto a cropped, ear-hugging length make for a style that's not only volume-inducing but undeniably eye-catching.

Whether you love shiny and controlled curls or prefer something rough, choppy, perhaps with mullet like tendencies, the Curly Pixie will ebb and flow with your own style. For sleeker looks, reach for products that will control frizz and activate your curls such as Kevin Murphy's Easy Rider. For those shaken, textured styles, there's Kevin Murphy's Night Rider.

Psst... I'm gonna let you in on a Victoria's Secret. Don't let Pinterest fool you into believing you need thick, waist-length locks to pull off the Butterfly cut. If your strands are feathered and snipped in all the right areas, this cut can encourage all the body and volume you need to feel pink runway-ready.

The Butterfly cut spreads her wings with fluttery curtain bangs, rippling short layers that frame the face and medium to long layers through the back to prevent over-thinning, keeping ends blunt and full. A big, bouncy blow out will truly hero this look, so gather all rollers, tongs or heatless rods needed to get you there. Don't forget to prime with a root lifting mousse for full-bodied volume, finishing with a light weight oil through the ends to maintain flow, movement and shine.

The Textured Pixie is the Harley Davidson of short do's. This style compliments rough texture and volume in the same way it compliments a band tee, bold accessories and biker boots. By chopping your locks off at the thickest part of your hair (the roots) you're ridding it of heavy length and providing your strands with the fuel needed for everlasting volume.

Pomades and waxes provide this style with a one-stop hair care routine. Simply warm a small scoop of either between your palms, push the product through your hair using all different directions, with your fingers, and mould it to your liking before pinching the ends for added drama.
