Low-maintenance hairstyles for 60-year-old women with fine hair are easy, versatile cuts that work with any length. These can be textured and choppy to give the tresses volume and fullness.

Stylists in Illinois, Chrissie Robles, and Ceri George share their views on this trend.

A stacked bob or lob makes a great easy-maintenance hairstyle. Just don’t go for too many layers so that it won’t require much styling.

“Bobs can go with little to no layers and with longer pieces instead. The cut’s structure can give fine tresses an illusion of fullness,” says Robles.

Short hair can be low-upkeep, but feel free to embrace longer cuts. Find one that’s easy for you to style.

“Have a consultation and take advice from a stylist,” Robles and George suggest. They reassure that “a pro knows what style suits your face shape, hair texture, and lifestyle well.”

When bringing a photo inspiration to the salon, show one with a lady who has the same hair texture and density as you. It makes a more realistic result.

Ask for some styling and maintenance tips. Your commitment to these things will help your hairdresser decide what fits you the best.

As effortless as these hairstyles are, you might feel like you’re look isn’t changing. However, regular trims and treatments are yet essential to keep the mane healthy.

Gone are those unpractical days when you spend lots of extra time preparing in the morning. Here are the photos of trendy, low-maintenance hairstyles for 60-year-old women with fine hair.

A short feathered wedge cut is another term for a graduated bob. The graduated bob incorporates a 45-degree stack around the perimeter, allowing for a round weight line. The addition of feathered layers increases the volume at the crown of the head, blending the overall haircut. This graduated bob is a great low-maintenance style for people with short and fine hair.

A great option for fine hair could be a pixie cut with tousled layers and side-swept bangs. This trendy cut will make fine or thin hair look thicker.
