Your 50s and the years beyond are a time to embrace your natural beauty and experiment with classy and timeless hairstyles.
You don’t have to put yourself in a box because you’re worried about “doing too much” now that you’re older. This is the perfect time to try out new looks and find the hairstyles that make you feel beautiful and confident.
Here are five gorgeous hairstyle options that are perfectly suited for women over 50:

The pixie cut is a versatile hairstyle that is low maintenance and works well for women over 50. It can be styled in different ways from cropped androgynous looks to a softer, more feminine look. Some of the variations include the classic pixie, textured pixie with layers, and a long pixie.
2. Bob

The classic bob is a hairstyle that suits almost all face shapes and hair types. It is the perfect blend of elegance and ease as it is not a complicated hairstyle, but it always looks beautiful. From a blunt bob to a layered bob and an A-line bob, there’s a style for everyone.
3. Locs

Locs are a great option for women who want a stylish but easy-to-manage hairstyle. Locking your hair involves twisting, braiding, or palm-rolling your hair into thin strands. This creates the starter locs which then grows over time as the locs grow longer and thicker. This process can take months and even years to fully develop, but the outcome is worth it.
4. Try different natural hairstyles

With the right products and styling techniques, you can achieve different styles.
