Don’t believe it when you hear that there are no flattering hairstyles for women over 50, as there are, and there are lots of them. As they say 50 is the new 30 and you need a hairstyle that will make you feel as good as you possibly can. If you look good, it also makes you feel good and being over 5o is no excuse. So what are the most flattering hairstyles for women over 50 at the moment?

To cut or not to cut?

How long is too long and should women over 50 have long hair? Well, of course, just because you are over 5o, it does not mean that you cannot have long hair. It just depends on how you wear it and the condition it is in. If you want to play it safer, then a shoulder length style is always flattering, as this style suits every face shape.

In the middle

The long bob is a much loved favorite as this hairstyle is flattering for all face shapes and is easily achieved. The bob can be choppy with layers, sleek or you can even have wavy hair.

Like a pixie

The extremely short and choppy look is fantastic for those who are very low maintenance. You simply wash and go and your hair is dry in a matter of minutes. The only downside is that it needs to be cut regularly.

Flattering hairstyles for women over 50 are achievable. Visit your local salon and take advice from them about what hairstyle would most suit you.
