50 Most Flattering Hairstyle Makeovers for 65+ Women

In a recent consultation, a client showed a picture of herself from 1987 and said, “I want to look like THAT but now.” Honestly? That’s not what you want. What you want is to look like the best version of yourself right now. That’s where the magic happens with these makeovers. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing the transformation of women over the last twenty plus years. The ones who glow the most are the ones who stop trying to turn back time and start working with what they have.

Here’s something I bet nobody has told you: hair changes A LOT as we get older. Of course I don’t mean just the color. The texture changes, the density shifts, even the growth patterns can change direction. I had a client last year who turned 60 and her hair at her crown started growing in a completely different direction; it was like her hair just decided to redecorate the place. The point is, the haircut that worked at 45 isn’t going to work at 65. That’s not a bad thing, it’s exciting! There are gorgeous hair options that work even better with more mature hair than they would at your 30-year-old head. Let me show you.

#1: Okay This Curly Auburn Bob Is Making Me Want to Call All My Clients

This hair and the curly bob are both AMAZING. The warm auburn highlights are the perfect touch. The soft and bouncy curls add volume where it’s most needed. If you have fine hair and have been flat-ironing it to death, STOP. This is the result of fully embracing natural curls and letting the hair do its thing. The length is perfect and the warm highlights give a glowy skin effect. Your curls will need some maintenance, so you need to get good curl cream and a diffuser. The extra time to do your hair will be worth it.

#2 This Copper Pixie Is Giving Me All the Feelings

This is the kind of cut I love showing clients thinking about going short, especially when they have an oval face! The feathered side bangs draw attention to the eyes, and kind of push back the hairline. We also do stacked layers on top for added height and then side cut to relieve heaviness. I’m going to be real with you, the red color is beautiful but it will be a lot of upkeep. You’ll have to get glosses to keep it from getting brassy, and that fringe is going to need daily cuts. While that may sound like a lot of work to some people, I think it is an amazing look!

#3 The Stacked Silver Bob That Basically Styles Itself (Almost)

THESE BOB STYLES SHOWCASE A GREAT EXAMPLE, HAVING AN INTERNAL GRADUATION NAPE CUT THAT EXTENDS LIFTS AT THE BACK WITHOUT APPEARING PUFFY, AND A SIDE SWEEP BANG THAT FAVORS THE CHEEKBONES LIKE A CUSTOM FOR THEM. THIS SILVER COLOR AND THE ROOT SMUDGE BLEND MAKES THE NATURAL GRAY LOOK INTENTIONAL AND NOT ,’I FORGOT TO BOOK MY APPOINTMENT’ CHIC. IT NEARLY STYLES ITSELF, EXCEPT THAT A ROUND BRUSH IS NEEDED TO ACHIEVE A SMOOTH, ROUND TO THIS. ONCE YOU MASTER THE TECHNIQUE, IT WILL TAKE YOU ONLY FIVE MINUTES.

#4 Airy and Sculpted and Everything I Want in a Bob

There are some clever things going on with this chin-length bob. One way to shape the style is with an interior weight shelf, which helps keep the shape from going flat while the ends are razor soft to give it movement. With this cut and color, your hairstyle looks naturally very manageable. Those lowlights mixed with the natural silver? Awesome. If you want to achieve that nice little flip, you are going to want to do some round-brush blow-drying. If you’re someone who grabs an air-dry and out-the-door, this probably isn’t your cut. However, if you’re someone who puts in that little extra time with a blow dryer, this is a cut that will get people asking who does your hair, and that’s a compliment I like to generate.

#5 Caramel Root Shadow Bob That Hides All Your Secrets

Wow that looks amazing!! The root smudge and lowlight situation? They perfectly conceal (somewhat) the stark silver part line. I absolutely love color work like that. As for the cut, it’s an angled bob with crown lift from some internal graduation and a stacked nape. The over directed side sweep really adds to the elegance. It’s polished but not stiff you know? One thing to consider is that this cut does want a daily blow dry to hold the angle. If that’s not your jam I’d suggest we look at other styles.

#6 Silver Champagne Graduated Bob That Looks Like Expensive Champagne

One of my clients made an appointment right after I mentioned the color as “champagne hair.” The color with a soft root shadow is super flattering. The champagne lowlights are a nice touch because they give depth to the color without the darkness. The graduated stacked cut in the back provides fine hair lifting at the crown which is ideal. The long diagonal fringe creates a beautiful slimming line right under the cheekbone which I really like. You will need a round brush and root lift to style it. You will need to tone it regularly to keep the silver from getting warm. The cut’s shape is so nice that it will look intentional even on lazy hair days.

#7 This Silver Pixie Is Effortless Cool in Haircut Form

A great pixie on salt-and-pepper hair just screams THIS PERSON HAS THEIR LIFE TOGETHER. The tapered nape and feathered layers keep everything lightweight and effortlessly lifted, and the point cut textured crown gives a relaxed yet polished piecey finish. Honestly, this cut is going to expose your hairline, so you have to be okay with that. You will want a texturizing paste every single morning to keep those pieces looking defined. Also, a fun little detail, see that subtle center cowlick? A good stylist actually works with it because it helps create some nice natural volume at the crown instead of just combing it flat.

#8 Warm Bronde Pixie That’s Secretly Genius

The clever use of color gives this cut a “secretly genius” quality. There’s some mild temple thinning here, and the stylist shrewdly root smudged and lowlighted the face framing pieces to disguise it. That’s the sort of detail that separates good haircuts from GREAT ones. The tapered nape, graduated crown, and diagonal fringe details all create a harmonious and flattering effect for oval faces, and the warm bronde color is giving a beautiful sun-kissed look without the full blonde commitment. This looks amazing but also needs precision cutting. You definitely want to go to someone who really knows what they’re doing with short hair.

#9 The Graduated Bob That Gives You Volume You Didn’t Know You Had

When I do a stacked bob on a client with fine hair, I always get the same reaction from them when the see the back for the first time. They look at me as if I’ve just performed magic. And that is exactly what this cut does. The stacked nape and internal layering create a curve that gives the hair more volume than it really has. The side-swept face frames soften everything around the hairline. The low-contrast balayage with root shadow works great for this look because it brightens the skin and the regrowth is shadowed, so it isn’t harsh. A quick round-brush blowout and you’ll have the shape. Seven minutes, not a production.

#10 Round-Brushed Stacked Bob That’s Giving Very Put-Together Energy

We can say that this haircut is really versatile. You can be running out for errands and it would look like you have really important meetings from the way this cut looks. The shape is really nice and round. Interior stacking and over directive cutting do that. The gloss with subtle root smudge helps prevent the grey from looking washed out. Instead it looks really sophisticated. I think it’s stunning. With that said, straight up, this haircut lives and dies by its styling. You need to have a blowout done or do thermal shaping so it really has that nice smooth round perimeter. This cut is not meant to be styled so if you live in a place where it’s really sticky you might think about a humidity-proof finishing spray because the humidity is really not your friend. If you’re living in a really sticky place it’s cut and the shape will not look good.

#11 Cropped Auburn Pixie That’s a Whole New Person Moment

Going from chin-length wavy hair to a bold pixie cut is a dramatic change, and she looks amazing! The stacked layered back, textured bangs, and warm auburn color are all so flattering. The old look just wasn’t doing it for her, but this color and cut combo really breathes new life into her. If you’re worried about cutting your long hair, look at the difference! With that said though, she’s going to need a lot of upkeep including styling paste or mousse to keep it looking great, regular trims for the pixie cut, and glossing for the auburn color. But seriously just look at how amazing it is!

#12 Warm Brown Stacked Bob with the Prettiest Silver Blend

Here’s what I appreciate with this technique for blending grey hair. Rather than cover grey hair or fight against it, the stylist incorporated warm lowlights and a clear gloss. This means that the grey at the part and temples of the hair can be integrated into the overall look instead of being the focus of a cover up. It’s a very contemporary way of looking at the transition. The chin-length stacked bob is of course timeless and flattering, graduated at the nape with point cutting for lift without too much bulk. She warm lowlighted the fade to soften it and clear glossed the grey at the part and temples to merge with the rest and integrate. It will require light daily styling to keep that shape, and you will want the colour blending done every few weeks as the grey grows in, but the overall effect is so soft and natural that it hardly feels like maintenance.

#13 Copper Pixie That Made Her Look Like a Completely Different Person

I am happy for the change you’re making with your hair! This ear-length pixie cut is going to look amazing! I love the finish of the cut and the color you chose. With the copper color, the nape graduation and layering are going to help uplift and lighten those fine, wavy, and light strands. Everything is finished off beautifully, and you look more youthful and elegant. On the downside, red is one of the fastest fading colors, so you’ll be seeing your roots come in sooner than you think! Expect to do color maintenance often, but a pixie cut also shows more scalp. If thinning is a concern in that area, we should have a plan for where to place the cut. It will be easy to style it daily once you’re in the groove, but you do have to get into that routine.

#14 Auburn Pixie That Turned Limp Hair Into Something Amazing

One of my favorite aspects of my job is seeing the amazing transformations we do and how they empower my clients. The hair we started with was lifeless and now we have this incredible textured pixie cut. The crown layers are stacked for instant volume. The warm red gloss with a root smudge offers a grey coverage solution so you won’t look like you’re trying to hide them, and the soft side bangs really open up the eye area. The added razor texturing gives that lived-in look and feels modern, unlike a style that relies on blow-outs. This cut will need some play in the fringe area each morning, especially if you have a cowlick. The red will need to be touched up, but overall the styling the cut allows is fairly easy and the upkeep is reasonable.

#15 Soft Silver Bob That Proves Less Is Definitely More

Sometimes the best option a stylist can take is to remove everything that is not complimenting you. This new trend bob shoulder length to chin length makes such a bold and positive change. The internal thinning and softly blunt edges removed all the weight. My favorite part is that the natural silver concentration is highlights. Why cover that up! The ashy silver might need some toners to stay ashy but the look is so low maintenance and perfect.

#16 Rose-Blonde Pixie That’s Giving Cool Girl at Any Age

The color on this one is so good! The soft rose-blonde gloss over grey makes for the most gorgeous lived-in warmth. Also, the low-contrast roots mean you won’t have to worry about a line of demarcation as the tint grows out. The graduated pixie with a clipped nape and layered crown really removed the old shoulder length weight and let her features shine. The razor texturizing over the crown really shows the cowlick rather than fighting it; that’s a really great example of a good cutter. A styling paste will be necessary for daily texture, and color upkeep will be required, but the shape is very forgiving on lazy days.

#17 Choppy Copper Pixie That I Want to Put on a Billboard

I am absolutely IN LOVE with this cut! It’s phenomenal! The choppy layers at the crown provide instant lift and the face framing feathered bangs (SIDE NOTE, I love how the stylist used the small temple cowlick to actually SHAPE the bangs) and tapered nape keep it all clean and modern! Going from chin length hair to THIS is a total game changer! The bright copper color will definitely need upkeep and daily texturizing product, but if you want your hair to look this good, it’s gonna be worth it!!

#18 Silver Stacked Pixie-Bob That Looks Like It Should Be in a Magazine

In this example, the architecture is self explaining. The strong overall shape comes from the stacked nape, graduated layers at the crown, and the defined weight line. The shape looks refined, even if a little messy. Long diagonal side fringe creates softness and balances the whole look, especially with an oval to heart shaped face. The bright silver is beautiful, but it needs regular glossing to keep it bright and avoid a yellow tinge. The fringe also needs shaping and that is just a quick finger comb and a bit of product, nothing too wild. In general, the shape is really special.

#19 Cropped Pixie with Root-Shadow Balayage That Air Dries Like a Dream

Would you like your hair to be low-maintenance? This haircut can do that for you! Hair that looks like you just rolled out of bed? Easy. This haircut will do all of the work for you! It’s best when you use no hair products, and just run your fingers through it. This is the haircut for you if you want wash and go hair. If you want to be able to style your hair messily, but not too messy, this haircut is perfect! You won’t have to worry about dry shampoo with this cut, either! The shorter layers at the nape of your neck will make the top layers fall and break at different lengths so you’ll have lots of dimension! If you’re wanting a bright color like pink, just a heads up, you’ll end up with the ‘dizzies’ phenomenon! This is where the hair looks best when the color is super faded. You’ll probably want to wait a while to get your hair dyed so it doesn’t look dull. Over time, the regrowth of the pink will form a darker blonde in the mix. The cut also has shorter layers in the back which will create a lot of volume when the hair is dry. This also means you’ll be able to build up lots of texture and volume over time! With all that volume, the highly worn ends will break off and create even more volume!

#20 Feathered Bob That Cleaned Up Damaged Ends and Made Everything Better

A makeover isn’t just about a new look; it can be a fresh start. Getting rid of hair that’s been through a lot can feel like a weight off your shoulders. Those sun-bleached mid-lengths weren’t doing anything for the vibe, and now with the chop to chin-length feathered bob with lifted crown and face-framing layers, everything feels SO much better. The internal graduation and razor cuts create a casual, natural look while also increasing volume in low-density hair. A quick round brush blow-dry will give you a polished version of this and with the color, you’ll want to come in for root shadow blending every so often. This cut is going to have great shape, even when it’s unstyled.

#21 Copper Curly Stacked Pixie-Bob for When You Want ALL the Personality

This look is everything! It’s especially perfect for people with an oval face shape and have long, coarse, and dense hair. The lifted crown gives great balance to that longer face and the graduated nape with the mid-length bulk point cut layers take away the bulk that makes thick curly hair feel overwhelming. Plus the gloss finish and warm copper single process color evens out the grey. This is ideal for curly-haired clients who really don’t want to have to battle with their texture, because you can literally just diffuse and go. With low styling effort, you’ll also have to do a little color maintenance, and while copper color does require upkeep, so does this cut! You will have to enjoy a playful front growth pattern every once in a while, and this cut is so worth it!

#22 Textured Silver Angled Bob with the Most Flattering Deep Side Part

A deep side part changes the way a bob haircut lays and frames your face. Here, you can notice the way the angled cut and inner layers remove weight and elevate the crown. The natural silver shows how lovely the color of the hair is without being covered with dye. There is also a slight crown cowlick here, which is the sort of detail most clients do not recognize their stylist doing. Hair of fine to medium density may necessitate daily touch ups to maintain that nice smooth under curve at the ends. Very tight curls will alter the shape of this cut, but with the right hair texture, this haircut is stunning.

#23 Chestnut Pixie-Bob That Uses a Cowlick as a Superpower

I enjoy working with clients who have cowlicks in really good spots. Instead of trying to fight against it, I can use it to help create some really good natural volume. That left crown cowlick? It’s giving you lift that you absolutely WON’T get with just product and technique. The pixie-bob has been softly feathered with some nape graduation so that she can keep the length off the neck, and the point cutting in the crown gives her some good structure. The warm chestnut color is really flattering and has a nice subtle pop. Most mornings you’re probably going to want to do some root lift with mousse or use paste and a round brush, and while the shorter length is going to show a bit more hairline contrast, it’s overall going to look really fresh and youthful.

#24 Stacked Bob with a Side-Swept Wave That Fixed Frizzy Mid-Lengths

Frizzy hair that falls to the mid-length can make someone look older than they are. Frizz shows tired looking strands that can catch reflected light in an annoying way. This is what happens to hair when all that is left is a chin-length bob that lacks structure and purpose. The stacked graduation at the nape creates volume and the internal point cutting adds movement. The subtle root shadow helps keep the crown cowlick under control. A side-swept wave is a nice finishing touch. Daily styling with a round brush and a diffuser will be needed as well as some glazing to keep the tone warm, but the before and after result is one of my favorite transformations in this collection.

#25 Voluminous Stacked Bob That Turns a Crown Whorl Into Volume

I always get extra happy when I get a client with a nice strong crown whorl because I get to use it to my advantage rather than fight it. That’s exactly what’s happening here. The internal graduation and point-cut face-framing layers are providing us with this beautiful rounded volume, and the crown whorl is adding lift exactly where you want it. The subtle root smudge perfectly blends into the grey at the temples. It is going to take a round brush blow dry to achieve the full effect and some regular shape maintenance to keep up the stack, but the silhouette is so pretty and soft that it’s really worth it.

#26 Copper Graduated Bob That Made Me Audibly Say “Yes” When I Saw It

I absolutely loved everything about this one. I really like the copper glaze and how it works with the root shadow because it blends with the silver regrowth. The bob cut looks stunning along with the internal point cut layers that remove bulk and give it an airy, bouncy feel. The crown cowlick helps give the hair a lot more lift which I think looks great. Overall, the graduation is really nice and it offers a lot more control. I do suggest getting a copper glaze to keep it looking fresh before your next appointment. You will definitely want to do color upkeep and will need some extra product if your hair is on the frizzy side because the styling freedom with this cut is really versatile. You can go sleek or tough, it all works.

#27 This Fresh Bob Is Just Really, Really Pretty

Occasionally, I come across a bob and before I get too carried away with the over analysis, I will say that it is REALLY pretty and you should totally get it. The layered movement gives just the right amount of looking alive to not be high-maintenance and the chin length length hits that sweet spot where it frames your face without drowning you in hair. This is a great transition cut for fine to medium hair that has been long for way too long. Get a soft balayage as it will take this from pretty to absolutely gorgeous and the upkeep is totally doable if you keep up with your trims.

#28 Shoulder-Length with Subtle Highlights That Makes Hair Look Thicker

Here is what I would do. Highlights reflect light and make hair look thicker because of different colors. Gentle waves with layers create movement and fullness. This length works for all face shapes, and the blended highlight will make for easy grow outs. The movement and waves are high maintenance, but overall this cut is low maintenance.

#29 Textured Short Cut That Frames Your Face Like It Was Made for It

Soft waves are the reason this cut works so well! The waves are doing what face framing is all about. Instead of staying next to the face, the soft waves are following the shape of the face which gives amazing definition. The cut is also very adaptable. The density of the hair being fine to medium gives enough volume to the hair without looking too bulky. The length of this cut also gives the opportunity to make the style dressed up or kept casual. This cut is great to look a little undone. However, if you want to keep the waves maintained, you will most likely need to use a wave spray or light mousse between washes. If you have ever wanted to go for a shorter look but a pixie cut feels too scary, this is a nice in-between option!

#30 Blunt Bob with Face-Framing Layers That’s Secretly Easy

People may think blunt bobs are hard to maintain, while in reality, they require little upkeep. This style is easier and more natural looking than one-length bobs because the soft and gentle layers around the face offer movement around the jaw and cheeks. The subtle shine on the ends of her hair shows its health, which is especially important to us as we age because one of the biggest signs of youth is hair shine. Length that is just above the shoulders is ideal because it allows for a fresh and new look while still being long enough to pull back in a half-up style if that’s what you prefer. The blunt line of the cut looks best with frequent trims to maintain that straight-edge look, and the styling effort each day really is minimal. Overall, the effort to maintain the cut is minimal compared to how much you get out of it.

#31 Wavy Lob That Looks Expensive Without Being Complicated

I have a whole category of hairstyles dedicated to looking ‘expensive’, and this wavy lob with soft highlights definitely fits the bill. The warm, soft, and face flattering highlights and layers are also great at preventing fine hair from looking flat, dull, or lifeless at those lengths. Plus, the layers create movement, which styling can take a bit of effort to achieve those gentle, natural looking waves, so using a large-barreled curling iron (or some overnight braids) is well worth it. Overall, this hairstyle is the ultimate goal as it looks effortlessly polished at the same time.

#32 Textured Pixie with Layers That’s Pure Low-Maintenance Freedom

It’s common for some people to take a long time to warm up to the idea of getting a short haircut, or to getting short hair in general. From my experience, the reason for this hesitation is due to the fact that a woman has likely never seen a shorter hairstyle that she thinks would look good on her. This is a great example of what such a hairstyle could look like because it is soft, feminine, and modern. The subtle layers provide volume and movement in a way that is needed for fine to medium hair and the versatility is amazing! If you want the hair to look more textured, then add some product! If you want it to look sleek and smooth, then just smooth it down and it’s good to go. Overall, this style does require more frequent trims than longer styles, however the time saved from daily styling more than makes up for this in the long run!

#33 A-Line Cut with Movement That Takes Five Minutes to Style

Shoulder length A-lines are the first hairstyle that pop into my head when trying to think of hassle free looks. This cut features expertly constructed layers to give movement and volume. That is super important at this length, especially with fine hair. Plus, a slight texture and ends give a more modern look, as opposed to looking set or outdated. This style is also very face flattering, particularly with the oval and round faces. This style does require regular upkeep, but there is no need to worry because the maintenance is super simple. It can get a gorgeous finish with just a blow dry and some round brush action. That means no salon level effort. On top of that, this style will grow out super well, and that is definitely something I value.

#34 Shoulder-Length Waves That Make Fine Hair Look Full and Alive

The waves in this hairstyle actually provide some extra volume, since the layers are more thoughtfully cut as opposed to choppy cuts done in an unplanned way. Longer layers help soften more angular face shapes, and the movement in this style prevents everything from looking flat. The highlights lighten the hair which adds a visual texture, and with fine hair, this is half the battle. Fine hair can be difficult to style but the right technique can achieve an incredibly youthful and trendy appearance with a lot of volume. Warm tones in the hair color are very flattering on mature skin too.

#35 Natural Movement Bob That Barely Needs Any Product

What stands out to me about this cut is how honest it is. The gentle layering creates movement and works with the hair’s natural pattern instead of trying to force it into something that is more styled. A fuller look with minimum product is the goal with medium density hair, and you can achieve that! The warm chestnut color is beautiful as well! It adds warmth to the complexion and gives a glowing look; the color could be more transformative than the cut. This is as low-maintenance as layered cuts get, but you will want to get trims regularly to keep the layers looking fresh.

#36 Sleek Modern Bob That Makes Fine Hair Look Intentional

Let’s be honest about it: fine hair can look fantastic in a sleek bob! Think about the looks when the hair is combed down compared to when it is brushed up. You won’t have to suffer like those with thick hair who need to do hours of styling just to get the combed down effect. The bob comes with some soft layering to give just enough volume on the sides without compromising the sleekness, and the subtle angle keeps it fresh. This is especially flattering on oval and heart shape faces. For those with thick hair who want this look, keep in mind that some regular styling will be necessary to achieve the sleek look, but that shouldn’t be a deal breaker!

#37 Textured Pixie with Warmth That Absolutely Glows

These highlights create a warm frame for the face and look intentional for where they are placed throughout the pixie. The added layers add volume and softness and address the common problem with fine to medium hair where it tends to fall flat. The overall look is warm and inviting, chic, and not overly fussy. The maintenance is super easy, just a few products and some finger-combing in the morning does the trick. To maintain the shape, you will have to keep up with the regular trimming of the length. This length is also really nice for round faces since it sits at the crown and temple creating a nice lengthening effect.

#38 Long Bob with Soft Edges That Lets You Keep Your Length AND Look Fresh

When a client says, “I’m not ready to go short,” I show them this. The Modern Long Bob possesses length to keep you in your comfort zone while the softened edges create movement and keep the style from looking heavy and dated. I love how this style enhances natural texture; it allows you to not have to fight your hair every morning. This look is super versatile and especially flattering on oval and heart face shapes. You can do highlights, balayage, gloss, etc., and this shape would support all of it. It’s an easy cut to live with and trims are super important to keep the line looking fresh.

#39 Silver Pixie That Proves Your Natural Color IS the Highlight

The naturally silver hair is classy as it is soft and has highlights. Beautiful silver hair with soft highlights looks very classy. Silver hair with light layering adds volume which makes it look lively. The length of the hair exposes your facial features and is very flattering. Heart-shaped and oval-shaped faces look very open with this type of hair. The silver hair looks great and should not be covered up. A texturizing product is needed to keep the hair looking great, but little maintenance is needed.

#40 Textured Bob with Face-Framing Layers That Softens Everything

A more angular jawline is an inevitable result of getting older, with people in their thirties and above being particularly noticeable. Thankfully, softer layers around the face can add balance to these types of features. To illustrate, this textured bob is a perfect example of jaw softening while also providing a flattering face frame. The average density is perfect for creating volume, and the slight tussle of the hair modernizes the look as opposed to the prim and proper appearance of an older style. If you want to avoid the hassle of dyeing your hair but want it to be a bit lighter, some subtle highlights would be a dream. Achieving that sharp look for a bob means regular trips to the salon, but you could say that for pretty much any hairstyle.

#41 Silver Bob That’s Classy Without Being Boring

There’s the “classy silver bob” that seems boring and safe. Then there’s THIS one that feels more fresh and exciting based on the added layers. The layers create movement and dimension and elevate this from “\”just a bob\”” to something more with real personality. The color is light gray, which is modern and refreshing with a polished look. It’s above the shoulders which makes it versatile; it can be worn tucked behind the ears, blown out, clipped, and so on. This look is one of the easiest to style, but does require periodic touches to keep the layers looking fresh. Occasional touch-ups keep the layers looking sharp but easy to obtain this styled look.

#42 Textured Gray Lob with Volume That Moves Like It’s Alive

I’m a fan of this cut because the natural waves are being enhanced and not smoothed over, and the end effect is such a beautiful and bouncy movement that makes the hair looks healthy and full of life. The soft volume around the face also draws attention to the cheekbones and no one even has to contour. It’s all in the cut. The layered structure gives movement to medium and fine textures that can just tend to hang there at this length. The elegant gray is working for her not against her. Fine hair may require a little more help maintaining volume between washes with a volumizing dry shampoo at the roots, but other than that, the overall maintenance is really low for such a lovely look.

#43 Blunt Bob with Textured Ends That’s Simple and Stunning

I always think the easiest cuts are the best, and this blunt bob is a great example of that. The chin-length hair frames the face magnificently, and the ends are soft and textured enough to keep the bob from being too stiff, while avoiding all the frizz. On fine to medium density hair this shape holds really well, and it creates soft lines on oval or heart faces. Because blunt cuts are super noticeable as your hair grows out, you’ll want to stay on top of your trimming! But that just means it’s a high-end, low-maintenance cut to have.

#44 Vibrant Red Crop That’ll Make You Want to Book an Appointment RIGHT NOW

I love the warm red color of this textured crop! It makes me want to do something color (and fun) right now! Shades of red really do something for a person’s complexion by bringing warmth and brightness to the face that makes skin look alive. And at this short jawline length, the color is right there at the face doing all of its best work. The subtle layers improve the movement and volume for medium-density hair and the soft waves add a youthful bounce that I’m really feeling. Red is a high-maintenance color so shorter styles will require regular upkeep to maintain the shape, but if you want something bold, beautiful, and manageable? This is it.

#45 A-Line Bob with Copper Highlights That’s Giving Warm Sophistication

No upkeep is needed for the A-line bob because the copper highlights are gorgeous. There won’t be any needing of touch-ups because these highlights aren’t going to be screaming, “I GOT HIGHLIGHTS!” The compliments providing warmth, and softly highlighting the face, are gonna be the highlights of this cut. A chin-length A-line bob has a polished and sophisticated look whether styled or air-dried. This look suits all face shapes, and is particularly great for medium density and straight hair because it enhances the sleekness of the cut. The whole look is very refreshing and clean without being over the top. The only thing with the color is it will need routine touch-ups to keep the vibrancy. Other than that, the cut will need little maintenance as well!

#46 Short Silver Pixie That’s Modern and Feminine at the Same Time

Depressingly, there still exists the false belief that short pixies are masculine styles – and styles like this are the perfect argument against that. The way the texture is layered brings softness and movement and the way it frames the face is exquisite, feminine, and pretty. Fine hair is actually at an advantage here! The layered technique makes the hair look fuller than it actually is by creating the illusion of more hair. The modern touch of the subtle silver really compliments the cut and the shape suits oval and heart face shapes best. Frequent trims are the trade-off with pixies as they always are, but the fresh youthful energy you get from this style is worth those every six-week appointments.

#47 Textured Short Crop That’s Edgy AND Wearable

Finding the balance between edgy and too edgy can be difficult, but this hairstyle gives the best of both worlds. The layered finish gives volume and movement, which works well for fine hair. The highlights give a warm touch to the grey without clashing. The hairstyle is intentional and current. The face shape is oval and gives a confident vibe without going too over the top. The shape of the hairstyle is kept with regular trims. Textured crops have the ability to go from intentionally messy to actually messy, so be ready for something bold. If you are, then this is a great option.

#48 Textured Bob with Soft Bangs That I’d Recommend to Almost Anyone

One style I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend is a nicely textured bob with soft bangs. This style is great for all face shapes as it offers good framing bangs (and bangs are super fun). Being a medium length style means it can be styled in a handful of ways and is not a weighty burden, plus the layers provide movement to fine hair and create added volume. With soft bangs, it may look like you’ve done a lot, but it is really not a lot of work. The bangs will grow really fast, meaning regular trimming is required, and some bang maintenance is a must but bangs are very easy! As far as bobs go, this one is stylish and easy, and is super flattering on basically everyone!

#49 Short Silver Bob with Textured Layers That Looks Expensive

This exemplifies what I mean when I advise my clients with silver hair that their natural color can look WOW with the right cut! Face-framing layers and a shorter length mean minimal to no styling time and it still appears neat and polished! The layers add volume so fine to medium density hair looks thicker WITHOUT any products which also helps it from looking stiff or helmet-y. Regular trims will be necessary to maintain the shape, but shorter cuts just require more frequent attention. The trade-off is this effortlessly cool look that will take about 3 minutes to style in the morning!

#50 Silver Pixie with Subtle Layers That’s Basically the Perfect Low-Effort Cut

This is an excellent description for a haircut that will require minimal time and effort for styling, if any at all. The silver color is stunning and won’t require any color upkeep which is a plus! This one includes a shorter length, and a simple towel dry and you’re all set. With a face at this angle, this cut is so contemporary and stylish, and looks so good with this cut. The color maintenance and upkeep being minimal is a giant bonus and then from a time saving standpoint, there are so many more positives. If you want something that you really won’t have to mentally engage with, and will be a time saver, then this is the haircut to go for.
