The 8 Best Hairstyles for Women Over 40

Long and soft

Long hair with a slight wave looks well on almost everyone and can be one of the best hairstyles for women over 40. 

Chin length with texture

Short, chin-length hair is surprisingly adaptable and won't droop down your face. Slick it back for a sophisticated style, keep hair very straight for a futuristic feeling, or add waves for a feminine impression. 

Bob with waves

This hairstyle is self-sufficient and requires little styling. You may air-dry it to avoid heat damage and still look wonderful. Ask for a mid-chin-to-shoulders cut with layers.

Sleek bob

Do you prefer to appear polished? "A smooth bob is the way to go."This is a timeless classic with clean lines that can be worn at any age and emphasizes your facial characteristics.

Classic pixie

For busy ladies, pixie cuts are enjoyable and low-maintenance. If you have short hair, you can wash and air-dry it and still seem polished.

Modern pixie

Classic pixies are short and textured. To modernize this short hairstyle for ladies over 40, keep the top longer to tuck behind the ears. This produces a sleek, poised look.

Jane Birkin fringe

Birkin was noted for bangs that hit at the brow and seemed wispy and airy, rather than thick and curtain-like. This hairstyle accentuates characteristics and expands the face without producing sharp lines.

Updated bowl

Think bold with the revised bowl cut if soft and dainty isn't your thing. For a powerful working lady who wants to look cool and put-together, a bold power cut is entertaining.
