How to create layers to make thin hair look thicker

Sorry its not the best picture
I have really thin, long hair, my problem is that I really wanted layers, to give my hair a bit of volume and not be so straight. I have naturally straight hair and have been told that layers would ruin my hair, but I really want a change. I'm not happy with the way my hair looks! So does anyone know what I can get done to give my hair a bit more volume, and I would like my hair to have curves and to flick out a little. I also want to keep the length of my hair. I like my hair long :) Can anyone also tell me a bit more about layers and how they would look? thanx ********* Long layers are a simple answer to give you what you want, however, you may want to trim your hair first so the ends are more uniform and look thicker before you create layers.
