By the time you reach your 40s, you have several significant advantages. You have enough wisdom and self-assurance to know your style and how to make it work for you. Hairstyles at this age can be dramatic or more subdued to fit your own personal taste. Your hairstylist is the ideal consultant to help you choose the perfect cut.Bobs
Going a little shorter works for many women in their 40s. Whether you opt for a bold look with choppy layers or wavy tresses that encircle your face with a tousled look, this style can work for virtually any shape of face. You can even choose something a little edgier and try an asymmetrical bob to infuse a breath of fresh air into your look.
Lobs
If you prefer a little length to soften the look, a lob might be the perfect compromise. With locks just dusting your collarbones and plenty of layers, these hairstyles are suitable choices for many women. Messy curls create a soft look and feel to tresses. Straight hair with blunt ends is also a go-to trend that won’t fail. Asymmetry works for lobs, too, so don’t be timid. Ask your hairstylist to mix up the length a little.
Shoulder-Length and Longer
Longer locks are still perfectly acceptable styles into your 40s and beyond. Try a look that hits your shoulders or even longer. Soft layers that frame the face are a casual and easy look for many women. Longer layers or a blunt style is also a classic look that never gets old. Pay attention to your ends to avoid fuzzy splits, and the rest is simply classic.
There are no hairstyle rules for women over 40, so stop in to see what suggestions your hairstylist has for staying current and beautiful as you age gracefully.
