Go for an inverted lob with a side fringe for a sleek look. The back of the cut is cropped at the neckline with a seamless angled flow to the front.

Try a blunt cut with blended highlights for a clean low maintenance style. Blunt cuts work well on fine, straight hair, because they give the illusion of thicker tresses. Add blended highlights for a soft rooty look with bright ends.
