The most flattering hairstyles for over-60s!

A haircut can make all the difference for an over-60.

Our hair starts to change as we get older. It can thin out, change texture, get drier and above all go grey. Our facial features change too and you may start to find that the hairstyle you sported in your 40s will no longer suit you.

You would be surprised how your hair can impact your life. If your hair looks fantastic, you will feel fantastic. We believe all women deserve to look and feel their best.

It softens your features and it will also help protect the skin on your forehead from the damaging effects of the sun. Framing your face is always a much kinder look than having your hair scraped harshly back from your face, highlighting all blemishes.

Here are our favourite haircuts and styling tips to give you your most flattering hair yet!

The Pixie
This style is perfect for ladies who want to highlight their face and who have fine hair. Keep it soft and fun like Dame Judi Dench here.

The Blunt Bob
If you have fine to medium hair, this style is perfect for you. Keep it sleek and shiny like Olivia Newton John.

The Shag

Have you got medium to thick hair? Try this and keep it soft, fun and full of movement.

 

Cropped Bob

These styles are perfect for all types of hair. The rounder your face, the longer the length is best. Keep this soft with tousled layers.

 

Choppy Lob

This style is terrific for everyone as the layers create movement and keep you looking young. A lob like Diane Keaton’s is a very flattering style – especially if you have a round face.

 

Soft Side Part

Centre parts can be harsh so go for side soft parts which are much more flattering. They also help to highlight your cheekbones.

 

Soft around the face

Soft waves and fringes can really add a youthful look. Keep it light and fluffy and avoid using too much product.

We hope you have found these style tips useful. Your hair is important, so take care of it and enjoy it!
