#1: With Salt and Pepper Grey Hair
This is a great short textured A-line bob cut. The versatility of this haircut is great if it is styled curly and messy or smooth and sleek. It’s also so fun and sass. Cute short hairstyles for women over 50 with glasses that are relatively short in the back require a touch-up haircut every 4-6 weeks if you want to maintain the shape!
#2 Short Bob with Thick Hair
Older women who have thick hair, the short bob is perfectly suited for those with shorter hair. This haircut is a short cut with medium layers that give your tresses some bounce and swish. The soft face-framing compliments those who wear eyeglasses as well. Style with a metal barrel round brush to achieve soft waves.
#3: Piece-Y and Choppy Long Pixie Cut
In our lifetime, our style preferences tend to change. For example, we may start liking a piece-y and choppy long pixie haircut. It’s important to find a hairstyle that suits our changing hair texture and color as we age. Additionally, one must consider the manageability of the style over time. Consider a textured, shaggy pixie. This is an easy style to maintain, and it suits different hair types. If you wear glasses, some light bangs can subtly shape your face and not interfere with your eyewear.
#4: Wispy Bangs on a Short Pixie for Thin Hair
When you try a short pixie hairstyle for thin hair, you’ll surely love your new look. A forward-combed short haircut can effectively enhance your fine hair texture and hide a scanty hairline. Tell your stylist to leave some length on top, trim the sides short, cut a soft fringe, and taper the nape. To introduce a modern touch to the perfect shape, add an asymmetrical front. For added thickness, make sure to apply a volume-enhancing product before hand-drying your hair.
#5: Silver Balayage on a Very Short Cut
If your aging hair feels dull, try silver balayage on a very short cut. A hair-lightening service may offer many benefits. It can add brightness, soften your coarse, gray hair, and make it more manageable. Pairing the silver balayage with a short haircut will certainly boost your style.
#6: Short Pixie Bob with Highlights
Consider a short pixie bob for ladies in their 50s if you’re a woman who wears eyeglasses and is looking for a new haircut. This style is perfect for those who want a low-maintenance and youthful look. The short length of the pixie allows for easy styling. The highlights can add depth and dimension to your hair. For those with glasses, a shorter cut can accentuate your features and allow your frames to stand out.
#7: Messy Deeply Side-Parted Bob Cut
A messy, deeply side-parted bob cut is a chic hairstyle. This look is stylish and low-maintenance. It’s perfect for busy women who want to look their best without spending hours styling. The cut features a deep side part that draws interest and attention to the face. The messy layers give it a playful and youthful vibe. For styling, I recommend applying a texturizing spray to add grip and definition to the hair. This way, you can wear your hair with confidence. Then use your fingers to tousle and shape the layers. This will create a tousled, undone effect that looks natural and effortless.

Try a sleek bob with side bangs if you have a round face. This is a great option for a more youthful haircut and style for your aging hair.
#9: Beautiful Natural Curls and Cut
Check out these beautiful natural curls and cut! You may be seeking a low-maintenance haircut. But you should be aware that a curl foam can cast your curls, promote shape, and reduce frizz. This step is as simple as getting out of the shower and scrunching your product of choice. Flip your head upside down and add it from the root to the ends.
#10: Naturally Grey Pixie Cut
Ask for a naturally grey pixie cut. A short textured pixie helps create body and movement in the hair, even when short. Instead of spending a lot of time styling, you can get away with using a soft texture wax like Hairstory’s Wax. You could use hairspray to finish it if you want more hold. This cut is great for older women and will have you visiting the salon every 4 to 6 weeks to maintain.

Very short hairstyles like this are convenient for the modern 50-year-old. Ladies in their fifties love this perfect spiky top style! This modern pixie cut has lots of texture. The key is to have lots of softness around the face. You could achieve this by incorporating a piece-y, textured fringe and length around the ears. This keeps the haircut from looking too masculine.

For added volume, use mousse or volumizing spray before blow drying. Try styling by using a round brush. It helps to create lift at the roots and a small curling iron to create soft, subtle waves.
#15: Cute Short Ringlets
Short ringlets are super cute with a pixie cut. Avoid going too short on the sides and too long on the top. That way the curls grow out proportionately. Ask your stylist for the best product to keep your curls moisturized to prevent being frizzy.
#16: White Pixie with Side Bangs and Glasses
A haircut like a pixie with bangs is great for women who wear glasses. Ultra-short sides eliminate any stray hairs from looping and sticking out when you wear your glasses, and a side-swept fringe won’t interfere with the tops of your frames. As a bonus, a short pixie is a fantastic way to quickly transition away from monthly root retouches and embrace your natural white or grey hair.

#30: Curly Hairstyle

#31: Feathered Bob
Ladies over 50 might want to try a feathered bob as your new style. Adding feathered layers will create volume and softness to your cut and give life to flat hair. Fine-haired ladies will want to keep the layers on the longer side to keep the hair looking its thickest. You’ll want to blow dry with a volumizing product and a round brush backward for the most lift. This shape can be curled as well for extra fullness.
