I've seen countless videos that try to establish strict rules for how women should wear their hair after the age of 15. They claim that long hair is inappropriate for older women, that trying to be trendy and youthful is a mistake, and that letting your hair go gray is aging. But can we please just stop with these arbitrary rules? Hi, I'm Gabby, a makeup and hair stylist with 17 years of experience. Throughout my career, I've worked with women of all ages and backgrounds, and I've always believed that hair and makeup are forms of self-expression and art.
Just like there are no set rules for how to decorate your Christmas tree or your house, there shouldn't be any rules for how to decorate yourself. Let me say it again: there are no rules for how you should decorate yourself. You should wear your hair in whatever way makes you feel happy and confident. However, if you're feeling stuck or unsure about what to do with your hair, I'm here to help. Today, I'm going to share five haircut and style ideas that I often recommend to my clients over 50 to help them feel fabulous.
1. The Blunt Bob: This style features a strong, unlayered baseline that hits at or above the shoulder. You can wear it with or without a fringe. As we age, our hair naturally becomes thinner, which can make it appear wispy and hard to manage. A blunt bob works well for women over 50 because it creates the illusion of thick, healthy hair. It can also give you an instant facelift. If you've always had long hair and are hesitant to go short, or if you have a weak jawline or carry more weight around your face, consider a mid-length cut with long layers.
