Does razoring a really thick hair makes it thinner.?

razoring tapers the ENDS of the hair . It should be done by someone with experience, and I don't care what any other stylists say, it should NEVER be done dry. I have had my hair, and fixed others hair that was done this way because it damages the cuticle (outer coating) of the hair and causes it to be frizzy and unmanageable. With your texture, you will probably get more volume with razoring and because its hard to find someone GOOD to do it, I wouldn't recommend it. If you want to loose some weight off the hair and get rid of some dead ends, have just the underneath thinned just a BIT with thinning shears . Plan on having to flat iron or curl your hair because this will make it lighter and give it more volume as well but is less damaging than razoring. If you want you could also do long layers. Good luck

Go to a hairdresser with that photo in your hand. Ask them how to do it, if it can be done and how much it'll cost. Most of the time the consultation is free, or you get the fee back when you get your hair done. I would have to see your hair, but I think the right hairdresser can do ANYTHING you want.

Best of luck hon, that style of Nicole's is gorgeous and I hope you can get it!

That style is awesome for Nicole, you have to take into account how much time you are willing to spend on straightening your hair to look like that.

You can remove bulk (thin) hair with a razor, but with curly hair, I don't recommend it. Layering it will make it look less thick though. Otherwise your stylist should be able to thin it using texturizing (taper) sheers. Make sure any consultation you do with your stylist is thorough and she knows or has a very good idea of what you are looking to achieve. A good stylist will always take into account your facial shape, lifestyle and the amount of time you have or are willing to spend on your hair. Remember..hair grows and there is nothing that can't be fixed!

Honey, keep dreaming. I am a stylist and if you have thick hair there is only so much we can do to thin it. Razoring can help but not that much and only if the stylist razoring your hair know the correct technique.
