There's a common misconception that women over the age of 50 should cut their hair
short, but nothing could be further from the truth.
Just take a look at some of your favourite celebrities - they are
proving women of all ages can rock pretty much any hairstyle.
All you need is some good inspiration, an appointment at a trustworthy salon, and the
right tools and products to recreate the look at home.
With that in mind, we asked the pros at Jo Hansford for a list of the most flattering celebrity
hairstyles for women over 50. So keep scrolling...
Sharp bob
Cate Blanchett
Everyone loves a classic bob, including Cate Blanchett. It's a versatile, timeless and fail-safe choice for
women over 50, which exudes elegance and confidence.
That being said, Daniel Balbes, Senior Stylist at
Jo Hansford, warns it is quite high-maintenance. ‘‘A sharp bob requires a lot of precision cutting to even out those straight,
blunt edges.'
Medium-length, soft layers
Cindy Crawford
Soft layers are a great way to switch up your look without making a drastic change.
‘The subtle haircut will add movement and texture,' says Balbes, ‘while
the classic 90s blow-dry will leave you feeling fabulous.'
To recreate the bounciness of Cindy Crawford's soft, layered haircut: ‘Use a good volume spray to help achieve body, alongside a good
quality bristle brush.'
Soft bob
Halle Berry
The soft bob suits all hair types. ‘It's a fabulous alternative to the sharp bob,' reasons Frankie Moody, Senior
Stylist at Jo Hansford. ‘I like to leave the length just
below the chin - it's chic and not as severe as a jaw-length bob.'
She cites Halle Berry as a gorgeous example of how having a soft bob with textured,
curly hair in your fifties can ooze sophistication and confidence.
‘The waves add softness and create a more feminine look.'
To achieve the perfect tousled wave, Moody recommends using a small curling wand and wrapping the hair in alternative directions.
Forward graduation
Tess Daley
The combination of soft layers and face-framing graduation à
la Tess Daley is an elegant choice for women over
50, even if you have thin hair. ‘Extensions are a great addition to add thickness and shape
without making the hair look thin and wispy,' says Moody.
‘To enhance the cut, finish with a smooth blow-dry.'
Side-parted bob
Hannah Waddingham
Hannah Waddingham's take on the bob is the
perfect example of how impactful even the most subtle change to a
haircut can be. ‘Adding a deep side parting and
sweeping fringe adds softness to the forehead area, while the subtle
layering creates movement and a flattering shape to enhance her
features,' explains Moody.
To get the look, use rollers to achieve bounce and body in the hair.
Shaggy layers
Jennifer Lopez
Michaela Galvin, Senior Stylist at Jo Hansford, says a layered
haircut with a soft fringe is the ultimate accessory for over 50s.
‘The fringe will create a subtle statement and soften the face,
' she reasons. ‘Jennifer Lopez regularly rocks this style and always looks fierce.'
To embrace J-Lo's wavy take on shaggy layers, Galvin suggests using a big curling wand to create movement, as well as a
salt spray to finish.
Long, bouncy layers
Sofia Vergara
When in doubt, blow it out. As Sofia Vergara proves, there's no haircut more flattering for women in their 50s than long,
bouncy layers that have been given the ‘soft Hollywood' treatment.
‘You'll feel like a million dollars,' says Galvin. She recommends
blow-drying your hair straight, before using a straightener to achieve these
tousled waves.
Pixie cut
Kris Jenner
If you want to go short, a textured pixie cut
is the way to go as it enhances your cheekbones. ‘This haircut is the
definition of striking, unique and sassy - everything a woman in her 50s should be,' says Galvin. ‘It's Kris Jenner's signature style and we all
agree she looks fabulous in her 60s.' To recreate her messy, textured
look, using a hair paste is key.
Full-body bob
Lucy Liu
Another spin on the classic haircut, ‘the full-body bob will give your
face a lift, as well as make your hair appear thicker and fuller,' says Galvin. Keep it effortless and sleek like Lucy Liu, and
amp up the volume using a volume spray to help enhance
the body in your hair.
Androgynous undercut
Tilda Swinton
It takes a powerful and strong individual to pull off the androgynous undercut à la Tilda Swinton, but it's the perfect haircut
for anyone with a strong jawline. ‘It's bold, edgy and eye-catching,' says Galvin.
Finding a volume powder that works, is key to maintaining this hairstyle.

Have you ever considered about including a little bit more than just your articles?
I mean, what you say is fundamental and everything.
Nevertheless think of if you added some great graphics or video
clips to give your posts more, "pop"! Your content is
excellent but with images and clips, this site could undeniably be one of the
very best in its field. Great blog! |
