Older adults often experience hair loss as they age due to hormonal imbalance and other health reasons. When this happens, styling the hair becomes more difficult because of how thin it can become. However, there are several haircuts for your golden years that you can try. The important step is choosing the right haircut and color as these combinations are responsible for the look you get.
Shoulder-Length Straight Cut
This is a simple, yet elegant haircut you can try if you have long hair. The procedure cuts your hair till it reaches shoulder length and maintains a straight form. This timeless hair look will look charming when left casually swept back in a bun or you can simply let it fall on your shoulders. Not only will you get the simple, yet classy look, but it will also give you a younger look.
Pixie Cut
A great way to embrace gray hair is to go for an edgy pixie cut style. It is a women’s haircut that leaves you with 3 inches of hair with a low back and sides with a longer top. If you have fine hair, you can opt for a pixie cut style that boosts the thickness of your strands. There are several variations of pixie cut to choose from, ranging from short to long. You will definitely find one that suits your face shape and you won’t go wrong with it. Even though you may lose most of your hair strands, you get to enjoy a wash-and-go style that doesn’t require much styling.
Asymmetrical Bob
If you have a thing for edgy looks, this can be the perfect cut for you. This haircut is an edgy textured bob with a wispy fringe that looks stunning on older women, especially if you have white or gray hair. The hair will frame your face well with the bob creating a strong statement. If you love wearing your hair straight or wavy, you should totally try this cut. The wispy bangs will help to give your square shape a lovely length.
Feathered Cut
No matured lady can ever go wrong with a short feathered cut, as it looks right on any matured lady, including older women. This cut is a very classy way of rocking your hair and still getting enough movements. It works really nice on straight locks and won’t require too much styling. To get a more youthful edge and feel, you can add balayage highlights to your hair—if you don’t mind.
French Bob
French bob is a versatile hairstyle that is loved among older women as it flatters their looks and makes them look younger. The bob cut is combined with bangs to add extra spice and youthfulness to the overall look. The haircut works well for all face shapes and most hair textures. You can make this your signature look as it never gets old and always looks great.
