here is the golden rule to absolutely follow for a hairstyle that rejuvenates, according to a hairdresser

The way in which women 50 years and over Perceiving themselves at this turning point in life has evolved a lot over the years, and their hairstyle must follow suit to allow them to feel good about themselves. The challenges of finding a haircut are no longer the same, now in our fifties we are looking for one rejuvenating hairstyle and we no longer want a “granny” hairstyle that marks this advance in age as before. “Today, fifty is the new forty. We don’t at all want to look like the 50-year-old woman of 30 years ago”explains to us hairdresser and Schwarzkopf ambassador Nicolas Waldorf, who is confronted with this problem every day in his Parisian hair salon.

Gone are the days when we adopted “memerizing” looks, we seek to counter the thinning of the hair fiber due to menopause by restoring volume to our fine hair after 50, thanks in particular to a volumizing haircut, but also to a suitable hairstyle. On this subject, the hairdresser warns us against quite common error which makes all the difference to our appearance and the image we project after 50 years: “you have to be careful if you have length, you have to shape it”.

Hair after 50: the “memerizing” mistake not to make according to the hairdresser (beware of “grandma’s” hairstyle!)

Once the right haircut has been chosen to flatter the specific shape of your face, which suffers from sagging skin on the lower face at the jawline regardless of the initial morphology, it is possible that you will have a bob cut that lifts the face or a trendy layered mid-length cut. Where no styling problem arose at the age of 40, you have to be more careful from the age of 50 so that this type of haircut continues to really enhance us, warns the hairdresser and ambassador Schwarzkopf.

As he reveals, at a certain age, it’s a “memerizing” error “if you have very long hair but don’t blow dry it at a certain age”because it makes the hairstyle look too unkempt to be flattering. Even if we are not a fan of the time it takes to style our hair and until now we favored natural drying that we did not touch up, “at some point you have to stop” this routine to have a hairstyle that is able to enhance us and rejuvenate us, assures the hairdresser. If blow-drying is not obligatory for all hair lengths after 50, it becomes obligatory for certain cuts. “You have to know the dosage and above all, if you keep your hair past the shoulders, over 40, you have to blow-dry”tells us Nicolas Waldorf to help us know when to take out our blow drying brush in addition to our hair dryer.

Hairstyle after 50: here is the best hairstyle for an elegant and modern hairstyle according to a hairdresser, the one that rejuvenates the face the most

To enhance these lengths of hair between the shoulder-length bob and mid-length hair which has a lifting effect on the face, the Parisian hairdresser recommends taking care of the shaping of the material in order to avoid any neglected appearance. This does not mean, however, doing a classic smooth and very puffy blow-dry which would be “memerizing”. He assures that you need a blow-dry that preserves “a material that is quite flexible”.

The idea is rather to smooth unsightly frizz, to prevent white hair which is sometimes coarser from counteracting the general look of the hairstyle, and to provide a nice, elegant movement in the lengths. This can absolutely be “a beautiful wavy” which creates waves in the strands for a very modern style, according to the expert. Nicolas Waldorf also recommends taking good care of your hair to tame flyaways without styling it too stiffly and rigidly. He particularly recommends the use of a hair oil, like Schwarzkopf precious oil to obtain this result. About this nourishing styling product, he assures that it “you have to have it to do your blow-dry”.

Short hair after 50: here is the good habit to adopt for a short cut that makes you look younger, according to the expert

This golden rule for styling hair differs when you choose to wear a short cut, but it remains valid in the sense that you should not leave your short hair styled “when you get out of bed” to enhance your appearance. These haircuts for short hair that we often choose to look younger also need to be styled every morning.

As the expert indicates, it remains essential – again – to shape the hair, not by performing a classic blow-dry, but by combining the use of styling products (such as volumizing mousses, volume effect sprays or styling wax) with a quick blow of the hairdryer which lifts the roots to restore volume to avoid the flat effect on the top and back of the head.
