Utilize your natural color by sporting this chin-length blonde bob with peekaboo bangs that complements most face shapes. This layered style looks fantastic.
Short
A pixie cut is always stylish and this trendy style looks wonderful on curly or wavy locks. Additionally, this short haircut works well with straight locks as well, adding color without overshadowing its elegance. Additionally, adding highlights can brighten up browlines and frame faces beautifully.
This classic pixie haircut with side-swept bangs remains timeless. Easy to maintain and customizable with any desired taper or texture layers around the crown, it looks especially fabulous when worn in a forgiving salt and pepper shade.
Another popular hairstyle among women over 50 is a slanted bob with an undercut, a modern take on classic bob that can be styled wavy, curly or even textured for a unique look. Perfect for oval face shapes such as those found on both the long side and oval corners of an oval face shape and can even work for women with thick or dense locks!
Blonde
Blonde hairstyles are ideal for all textures of locks – be they straight or curly strands. This layered cut with jagged side bangs is young yet sophisticated; framing the face to highlight eyes and jawline beautifully. Add highlights or keep maintenance low-key with a balayage blend matching natural gray roots for optimal results.
Choppy pixie haircuts are an ideal choice for women over 50 looking to achieve a timeless yet fashionable style. Celebrities like Hallie Berry and Kris Jenner have worn this sultry cut which compliments all face shapes; keep it classic by keeping the style sleek or add soft wispy fringes for an elevated effect.
Wavy bobs with piecey feathered layers can make an attractive hairstyle for older women over 50. Their texturised design adds movement and volume while golden highlights create a youthful aesthetic.
Curly
Curly hairstyles are ideal for older women, as they add volume and soften the features. To maintain healthy locks, always use a leave-in conditioner on each strand – this will also prevent frizz and flyaways! For longer curly locks, consider trying a deep side part which allows the coils to stack high on one side for added drama!
Another popular look for curly hair is to tame back your coils into a low chic ponytail and add in some brightening highlights for added shine and sun-kissed style.
A classic bob style works wonders with any hair texture, but is particularly flattering on curly locks. Easy to maintain and stylish enough for everyday use – look gorgeous paired with accessories such as flowers or barrettes (which have recently made a comeback!). This look is sure to turn heads and will turn them your way!
Thick
Volumizing and adding some edge can give your thick locks a younger-looking style, such as spiked bob haircuts paired with face framing bangs can do the trick; or try short textured pixie cuts with side-swept bangs for an eye-catching yet gentler style.
Fluffy strands lend a youthful aesthetic when worn in a high ponytail. To maintain its sleek appearance, mist your ponytail with CHI Keratin Flex Finish Hairspray; its formulation helps hold hair in place without making it stiff or heavy.
A wedge bob is another versatile style perfect for medium thickness hair that can be styled to look sleek, professional or sensuous depending on your mood and the occasion. Although shown here with blonde locks, this look can work for all colors from brunette to platinum blonde locks.
