You’ve got the night cream, you’ve got the clothes to avoid the old granny look, but have you thought about hairstyles that make you look younger? No chemicals required! All you need is the right equipment and a bit of imagination. The medium bob. The medium bob has got to be one of the easiest-to-wear cuts once you reach a certain age. It’s best to avoid long hair, especially as your colour fades and you feel as if your features are not what they once were…By medium bob we mean chin- to shoulder-length. Wear it straight if you have an immaculate colour (or if your hair is natural!). If your roots aren’t perfect, leave it natural.
The wispy fringe. Starting to notice fine lines on your forehead? No need to resort to Botox just yet! For now, you can cheat by hiding them under a trendy wispy fringe. This fringe, which reaches your eyebrows, will also soften your features and shift freely for a perfectly natural hairstyle.
Mid-length waves. This cut is a great option for people who don’t want to go too short, while the curls bring a touch of youth to the whole style. Try to avoid tight curls, instead create pretty waves using wide-barrelled
curling tongs. Try applying a styling mousse to your damp hair so that your curls last longer.
The low ponytail. For a relaxed style, avoid pulling your hair too tight or wearing your ponytail too high. Instead go for a low ponytail that sits at the back of your neck. Want to add something extra? Wrap a piece of hair around the ponytail to hide the hair band.
The side-parting. People tend to think that the centre-parting is dated. And even though we’re seeing a lot more of it these days, they’re not strictly wrong! The centre-parting often results in a very strict effect. Opt instead for the side version, and don’t be afraid to make it stand out. Try pinning a piece of hair back with a hair slide for a preppy look!
