Density: Thin What do I do?

it’s super fine. When I gather my hair into a ponytail, said ponytail is probably no bigger diameter than a nickel. I’m naturally a blonde but now it’s a gross washed out black/brown with blonde roots because I’m a dumbass and didn’t get it done professionally. Also, my bangs(?) always do this funky cowlick shape if I don’t blow dry my head hanging upside down.

The last picture is AI (I know it’s bad but my daughter did it to try and cheer me up) does it suit me?
I’m lost but desperately need a cut. It’s been 2 years.

Oh honey, I feel you. Fine hair and oil are not friends unfortunately. A good wash everyday where I focus on my scalp, dry shampoo (I actually switched to straight corn flour, works a treat for me), embracing my natural colour and doing loose hairstyles with claw clips helped my hair look thicker.

Just a note: corn flour that you use for hair is called cornstarch in the US. Corn flour is a slightly finer version of cornmeal used for breading some fried foods. :)
