And what better way to show it than through your hairstyle? During our golden years, our hair changes and mature hairstyles are in order.
This simple, elegant style is fun, with customization possibilities that can make it especially suitable for women over 60 looking to express themselves.
Among the many styles that have stood the test of time, wedge haircuts clearly stand out because they are versatile, low-maintenance, and offer a stylish look, making them perfect for any occasion.
The wedge haircut as we know it today has evolved since ancient times, making sophistication and style its symbol. Since its introduction by Dorothy Hamill on the ice rink in the 1970s, this cut has undergone many changes aimed at meeting the current demands of people's tastes and hair types.
1. A very bold short bob with straight bangs for over 60 years
Are you over 60? Need a modern hairstyle? Think bold short bob with an undercut and straight bangs across the forehead. No matter your age, never settle for a boring hairstyle!
This particular style works well with any hair color, even your natural gray hair. Quick tip: To achieve this look, the cut needs to be done with precision, so finding someone who cuts short hair well is essential.
2. The wedge cut that highlights the volume and is elegant
Therefore, if you want to increase the volume of your hair on top, opt for a sleek wedge cut inspired by classic Chanel models. It is sleek and cut tight at the back, which helps reduce excess weight from the hair and add volume where you want it most: on top.
And guess what? It's very easy to handle; therefore, it doesn't take much effort to make it look pretty.
3. Voluminous tapered cut for thick hair
The tapered wedge cut is perfect for those who have fine, thin hair but are looking for the illusion of volume and length in their hair. With this style, longer strands can be created around the face, making the hair appear fuller than it actually is. To enhance this look even further, add some wavy texture that gives it a beachy, youthful feel.
4. Long Pixie Wedge Cut for Easy Maintenance
Simply opt for a long wedge pixie cut when looking for stylish yet low-maintenance hairstyles that are suitable for people who lead busy lives and do many other things besides taking care of their hair.
Always clean and tidy as they can also choose hairstyles that fit their daily schedule without losing their appeal.
5. Flattering Inverted Bob for Thick Hair
If you have thick hair, it's best to opt for an inverted bob, among others. This is because it layers the hair to create a beautiful round shape at the back of the head with just the right amount of volume.
Blow dry your hair with a paddle brush or Denman brush, making sure the airflow is directed downwards, along the back of the head and neck. You can use a light hold hairspray to finish this look and keep it in place without weighing it down.
No matter your age or hair type, each style has its benefits, including: voluminous hair, ease of maintenance, and enhancing natural beauty. It's always a good idea to talk to a professional hairdresser before changing your hairstyle, as they will take all of these factors into consideration.
6. Modern feathered bob with light bangs
The feathered bob with light, wispy bangs is a great option for any fashion-conscious woman. The style has a wedge cut that keeps the nape cool while giving you feathery layers in your hair that give you a modern look.
Use Pureology Instant Levitation Mist on the roots and blow-dry with a medium round brush to lift the crown of the head. This style defies age by giving grandmas a youthful and energetic look. It fits most face shapes and offers a sleek, low-maintenance look.
7. Modern chin cut for mature women
Mature women who want to renew their style should try the inverted bob that reaches the chin. In addition to being fashionable, it is a shorter and easier to maintain version of long hair.
If you want to modernize your hairstyle, opt for layered back and minimal layers for easy drying. Blow dry with a medium round brush and apply a little smoothing cream for a shiny and voluminous finish. It also gives a fresh and beautiful feel.
8. Sleek Wedge Lob for Gray Hair
For those with gray hair, a wedge haircut offers a sleek and flattering update that is also very feminine in nature.
It is best suited for medium to thick hair and offers a soft, rounded shape that will go a long way in this case, so ask your stylist to class up the bottom layers while keeping the top layers longer than the rest; in this case, blow dry the bottom sections first and then comb the sides back to give them the neat look they need. This is not only stylish, but it also adds more elegance to natural gray hair.
9. Relaxed Textured Pixie
The short textured haircut suits everyone, no matter what your face shape is. Just keep the sideburns soft and ask your stylist to give the hair some texture by cutting it into pieces. This style can be easily blow-dried with your hands or a small round brush, brushing it away from your face and finishing with a texture paste on the ends, you'll mess them up so they look great without much effort.
