JAKARTA - Actually, there are no special guidelines for someone, at any age, to choose a hairstyle. It's just that if you are starting to enter your 50s, there are several things that need to be adjusted if you want to choose a certain haircut, especially if you want the cut to make you look younger.

VOI cited from Good Housekeeping, Friday, April 8, providing ideas for hairstyles for women in their 50s. Who knows from this reference something will catch your heart.

Long hair

How many people hesitate to grow their hair in their 50s because they believe that long hair actually makes them look older. In fact, if given a little touch of layers, your long hair will not be boring. If you are still in doubt about growing your hair, then opt for a wig for a no-commitment hairstyle.

Pixie volume

If you want short hair, try a pixie cut. If your hair is thin, this cut is suitable because it will give the impression of volume.

Short bob with layers

A neat-looking bob cut. To achieve this look, cut your hair short with multiple layers, then create big waves with a curling iron to create volume and dimension.

Pompadour style

Similar to a sleek hairstyle, the pompadour updo gives the impression of elegance and thicker hair by giving thin hair more volume in the front.

Long bob

Long bob haircut is also suitable for women in their 50s. To increase the volume of your hair, apply volume-boosting mousse all over damp strands. Once dry, curl the lower sections of your hair with a large barrel curler.

Pixie with bangs

A pixie with a wavy cut looks fresh and youthful and it's easy to care for too. Add a little bangs that can make the impression of a more oval face.

Asymmetrical style

An asymmetrical cut gives a sense of dimension to the face and the overall look.

Pompadour curls

The pompadour hairstyle often gives an edgy look to older women. To make it even more subtle, add a touch of curls and comb your hair to the side.

Caramel highlights

Add a warm touch to your look by highlighting your caramel-colored hair. You can liven up this look with a side slit and give it a big wave.
