Which hairstyle suits me at 60 years old?
This is a very individual question in which the shape of the face and the texture of the hair play a big role. With increasing age, the hair also becomes thinner and finer. For this reason, most women over 60 opt for a short hairstyle.
But that is not always the case: there are mature ladies who can easily let their hair grow and conjure up elegant long hairstyles with a bun or ponytail. Lately long hair has been “celebrity approved” – in other words, fashion icons in this age group show up with long hair in no uncertain terms on the red carpet and at the most important gala events. The cliché that aging women should only wear short hairstyles is passé.
Autumn 2023: Short hairstyles from 60 that make you younger
Luckily, there are many elements that contribute to the anti-aging effects of a 60+ short hairstyle. Her mane is practically the stage on which many elements play together for the perfect appearance in the limelight.
- Cheeky layered haircuts over 60: This option is a favorite in the 60s age group. Using graceful layers creates the voluminous look of more texture. These accents can be enhanced with color and they get a youthful look.
- Nice back of head: Nothing can compete with an elegant edge at the nape of the neck. This mainly applies to bob hairstyles. With pixies, the beautiful back of the head comes quickly into question, mostly realized in the form of an interesting transition.
- Pony: The pony fashion 2023 has given us new variants and you therefore have a large selection. The right fringe is a real fountain of youth for mature women over 60 and conceals the wrinkles on the forehead.
- Fleeting short hairstyles with glasses: The glasses are an accessory, but they have to harmonize effectively with the short hairstyle. Forget what the glasses are actually used for and perceive them as an aesthetic object – now get yourself cheeky glasses frames that always complement your short hairstyle and make you an absolute feast for the eyes.
