Going to the hairdresser is always like playing roulette: it is too difficult to predict the final result. That is why women of age are very careful about choosing a haircut and finding "their" hairdresser.
The charming Sophia Loren expertly remarked: "The hairstyle influences the way the day develops, and in the end, the life." Women of Balzac's age, who have already achieved a certain status in society, have achieved success in their careers, cope with the roles of a wife, mother, grandmother with dignity, treat their hair with special trepidation. Few of them decide to experiment with hair color and length. However, when a woman feels an irresistible desire to change something in the established way of life, she first of all ... plans a trip to the hairdresser.
It's good if you've already found your perfect haircut and hair color. If, for some reason, you are still in search or in the process of creating your own unique image, the tips below will come in handy for you.
Short hair: short and clear
There is an opinion in society: "The older a woman is, the shorter her hair should be." However, beauty is a relative concept, and the appearance of each woman is individual and has its own zest. That is why, until now, not a single world-renowned stylist has dared to speak to the public with a statement like: "... A woman's hair length after the age of 50 should be 29 centimeters and not a centimeter shorter."
84% of women improve their mood by going to the hairdresser.
In order to look harmonious, women, when choosing a haircut length, need to focus not on their age, but on the condition of the hair and individual features of appearance.
A short haircut should be preferred to ladies whose hair has undergone age-related changes: it has become thinner and dull, has lost its previous volume and shine, and falls out in large quantities.
- Owners should avoid ultra-short and lush haircuts square face.
- Ladies with oval or narrow face types can easily afford a short haircut and even small curls.
- Chubby it is worth opting for a haircut in which the hair will cover part of the neck.
- If you have low forehead, do not give up bangs: fluffy bangs below the eyebrow line will make your flaw invisible.
- Owners high forehead it is worth making short bangs and avoiding combed-back hairstyles.
- Give roundness flat nape you can, leaving lush hair on the back of the head and crown.
- Hide protruding ears allows haircut to the middle of the auricle.
- With a short haircut, you can visually "stretch" short neck.
Golden mean
Hair of medium length (up to the shoulders) is perhaps the best choice of haircuts for women of age. By opting for this length, you can wear your hair both loose and styling it into a sophisticated hairstyle or collecting it in a comfortable ponytail.
Women are less prone to baldness because their hair roots are set 2 mm deeper than men's hair.
Medium length hair makes a woman free in terms of the choice of styling. You can easily change images every day. The "shell" styling will add a touch of severity to your image, lush curls will add romance, perfectly straight - stylish and modern.
Deciding to do medium haircut, keep in mind a number of rules.
- Owners oval face type can afford any medium-length haircut they like.
- For ladies who have several elongated face, it is worth giving preference to voluminous haircuts to the shoulders and experimenting with the shape and length of the bangs.
- Women with square face can safely choose voluminous top hairstyles, curls, but they should avoid haircuts for medium length with a parted part.
- Chubby it is important for ladies to create additional volume on the crown, add asymmetry to the hairstyle, you can open the forehead.
Beauty - long braid
Few older women allow themselves to grow long (below the waist) hair. If your hair looks dazzling and is admired by others, you can safely wear a long hairstyle.
Recall basic rules for long hair care.
- Long hair should be combed very carefully, starting at the ends and gradually working towards the roots. Gentle brushing will help you to minimize the amount of split ends and damaged hair. A wooden comb with soft teeth is ideal for combing long hair.
- Do not overuse styling with a hairdryer, use heat rollers on rare occasions. Let your hair dry naturally.
- Wash your hair properly. The optimum water temperature for washing hair is 37-40 degrees. Get a shampoo that's right for your hair type. Do not forget to use conditioner or hair balm, decoctions of chamomile, nettle, green tea.
- Trim the ends of your hair in time. This simple manipulation will save you from the problem of split ends.
How to find the perfect hair color?
When deciding to change or correct your hair color, remember: hair color should match well with eye and skin color... Ultra-light and ultra-black colors should be avoided as they can easily make you look years older.
Do not experiment with hair color at home. Entrust your hair to an experienced professional.
If you decide to dye your hair in one color along the entire length, try to build on the natural shade of your hair when choosing a dye.
Hair dyed with two or three shades will look interesting and advantageous. Complex multi-tone coloring will allow you to give your hair visual volume and splendor, add youthful notes to your image. Due to the smooth color transitions, you will be able to tint the regrown hair roots much less often.

When your appearance changes, as a rule, both your worldview and your behavior change in some way. The main thing when changing your image is to decide on the main hairstyle ... In general, your hairstyle should match your clothing style and be in harmony with your image and worldview.
7 Signs It's Time for You to Change:
1. Your hair has no shape and volume, but just lies on your head.
2. Your former classmates say you haven't changed a bit.
3. Your hair is of indeterminate lifeless color.

Otherwise, in choosing a haircut, your emotions will prevail over common sense, which you can then very, very regret.
Don't expect your hairstyle to radically change you.
A good hairstyle should emphasize your facial features, should suit your character and lifestyle. But it's best if she looks natural on you. Don't expect too much from changing your hairstyle - hairstyles cannot change the texture of your hair, your facial features, or your entire life.
Choose a practical hairstyle
As much as you like any of the hairstyles, remember that after leaving the beauty salon you will have to take care of your hair yourself and maintain the chosen style. Think about how much time in the morning you can spend on styling your hair so that, in the end, you do not become her slave. A good stylist can reproduce almost any hairstyle in the salon, but if your hair is not suitable for it, for example, hair that is too thin or too long, it will be almost impossible to reproduce such a hairstyle at home.
Be wary of your choice of hair products
There are so many hair products out there now that you can find a shampoo or mousse just for your hair type. But it is also easy to make a mistake, especially if you do not know a foreign language, and among the various "straightening", "smoothing" or "shine" means to choose the wrong one. As a result, you get hair that has an oily sheen, or hair that is difficult to style. When in doubt, it is always best to ask a professional for advice, who will determine your hair type and recommend hair care and styling products.
Choose your hair color carefully
Any color is beautiful in itself, but it may not look so beautiful on you. Hair color should match the tone of your face and set it off favorably. If your skin has a pinkish tint, then cold colors, which are based on blue, will suit you. If the skin is rather golden or peachy, then your colors are warm, golden. But it is best to consult a specialist in this matter.
Don't forget about the color of your eyebrows
Eyebrow color should match hair color. As a general rule, the eyebrow color should be half a tone or one tone lighter than the darkest strands of your hair.
To harmonize your hairstyle with your look, first decide on the shape of your face. Stylists define the following basic face shapes:
Round. The length of the face is approximately equal to its width, the contours of the face are rounded and soft (Example: Drew Barrymore).
Oval. The length of the face is about one and a half times the width, the contours of the face are even. (Sharon Stone).
Square or rectangular. The length of the face is slightly greater than or approximately equal to its width, the contours of the face are square (Demi Moore).
Triangular. Wide cheekbones and / or wide forehead and narrowed jawline (Naomi Campbell).
Trapezoidal. Opposite "triangular" shape, meaning heavy jawline and narrower cheekbones and forehead (Cathy Ireland).
Diamond. The width of the forehead and jaw is about the same, the widest part of the face passes through the cheekbones (Sophia Loren).
If you find it difficult to define the shape of your face, comb your hair back, take a felt-tip pen and trace the contours of your face in the mirror. And then see what shape you get. You can also measure the resulting figure with a ruler, determine the width of the forehead, the lines of the cheekbones and jaw. Having decided on the shape of the face, you can choose the right hairstyle.
Hairstyles that suit a round face. Everything is good here that has contours that interrupt the roundness of the shape. To do this, vertical lines should dominate in the hairstyle. Such a person will also go with a lush high hairstyle with oblique or straight bangs or a half-part, hair asymmetrically laid on the sides. The recommended hair length is medium. Unsuitable: hair pulled back or strictly combed from the face.
Hairstyles for an oval face. This face shape is considered ideal, and most hairstyles will suit you. But if the face is long, then it is better to choose a hairstyle with lush sides or with contours that effectively interrupt the elongation of the shape.
Hairstyles for a square face. With angular facial contours, clear lines in the haircut should be avoided. The advantages here are asymmetric hairstyles, gently smoothing out the shape of the face, or soft semi-long or long curls.
Hairstyles for a triangular face. In this case, the chin should not remain uncovered, or at least should receive an optical counterweight. This is easiest to achieve with a semi-long haircut that ends at chin height. Contrasting hairstyles that combine straight bangs and curls are also suitable.
Hairstyles for trapezoidal face. Such a face must be visually lengthened. Long strands around the face and lush hair at the crown will help. A haircut like a graduated bob will also go.
Hairstyles for the "Diamond" shape. With this type of face, short haircuts look beneficial. The hair in the front can be raised to slightly lengthen the forehead line, and the hair can be folded forward so that it covers part of the face from the sides. Asymmetrical hairstyles are also good for this type of face - hair on one side is longer than on the other, side parting. An asymmetrical square will do.
For us - girls - appearance is very important, therefore, more often than not, in order to cheer up or even improve the quality of life, we just need to change something in ourselves. We are sure that many of us have already gone through many stages, which will now be discussed, and most likely, after that, life became brighter and brighter.
2M media / shutterstockSo let's get down to business without further ado. Is it time to change something, but don't know where to start yet? Ivetta will try to help!
Hair
Hair, as they say, is not teeth - it will grow back. Therefore, many girls boldly experiment. For girls whose curls are naturally light brown, it will be easier to repaint in any other color, be it red or platinum blonde. However, be careful, not all hair can withstand extreme changes.
So, in order for your experiments for the most part to be successful, it is better to use the services of professionals, and not to conduct experiments on yourself.
1. Haircut
A haircut is one of the easiest and quickest ways to renew yourself. All you need is to enlist the help of a truly experienced and competent professional who will cut the hair the way you need it, and even make the hairstyle so easy to style that in the morning it will only take a few minutes to put your head in order.
After a successful change, you will become more confident in yourself, you will start receiving compliments, and you will look at life in a new way. By the way, an elongated bob is very fashionable this season, so if you are ready to take risks, go ahead!

Hair color greatly affects the entire appearance, and also significantly affects how, for example, the skin of the face will look. Dark brown hair is suitable for those with literally perfect skin. The same goes for the light shade. These colors highlight all the flaws so vividly that sometimes they can even ruin the whole image. Therefore, you should be extremely careful with experiments and it is best, of course, to entrust yourself in the hands of a real professional.
If you have been dyeing blonde for many years, maybe it's time to choose a shade a couple of tones darker? We understand that it is difficult to get out of your comfort zone, but sometimes changes are beneficial.
The same goes for convinced brunettes. You can start by lightly highlighting some strands around the face and along the parting. You can try trendy ombre or balayage.
However, it also happens that in the end, having tried all possible options, you realize that the best color is your natural one. Therefore, almost everyone eventually switches to it, however, they already have great respect for their hair.

In this case, we are talking about a hairstyle that you will create not with scissors, but in a company with hairpins, elastic bands, hairpins, headbands and invisible hairpins. This season, fighting braids have become extremely fashionable, of course, thanks to the socialite Kim Kardashian. However, girls with short hair should not despair. Indeed, on the Internet, you can find a huge number of wonderful hairstyles for any length.
Admit it, there is nothing complicated in this, but how much a couple of pricked strands changes the overall appearance.
If you always wear straight hair, try to get messy curls like Victoria's Secret models. It will take very little time, however, you will look completely different. If you constantly wear bangs - pin it on the side or up.

The face is our calling card, so experiments here must be very careful and competent. Let's start with the eyes.
1. Eyes
If you turn to the Internet, you will be extremely surprised by the many types and techniques of makeup. Loose eyelid? No problem! Especially for such cases, machinations with adjustments have been invented that hide such shortcomings. Many girls admire the ideal beauty of Natalia Vodianova and Mila Jovovich, as well as Renee Zellweger and Claudia Schiffer. Pay attention to their eyelids? Unlikely. And why? Because these women know how to use cosmetic products correctly and turn their disadvantages into advantages.
Try different makeup techniques. But remember that painting like a parrot and sticking a meter-long eyelash during the day is mauvais ton.
However, there is a professional eyelash extension that can radically change your facial expression. Tufts in the corners of the eyes or just very beautiful fluffy eyelashes only paint the girl, making her look more sexy and interesting.

Now this topic is more relevant than ever, and what girls do not go to to "make" fashionable eyebrows for themselves. The correct shape and shade of eyebrows can radically change facial expressions and make us real Hollywood beauties. However, some girls take this to heart, and begin to paint their eyebrows with a black pencil, to give too geometric shape, which, in fact, only disfigures. Remember that everything is natural in fashion, the eyebrows are of the correct color, and the natural shape of the eyebrows. Forget about overly saturated colors and clear boundaries, your eyebrows will never look exactly the same.
If you are afraid to do everything yourself, contact a specialist. Such a procedure is not very expensive, and you yourself will be able to do the correction yourself later.

To begin with, few girls are one hundred percent satisfied with their appearance. In particular, this also applies to the face, or rather its shape. Now complaints like "I have too wide / round / sharp / square / triangular face" are no longer rolled, because, firstly, the whole thing is easily corrected with a hairstyle, and, secondly, all cosmetic stores are already available special sculpting products for the face, which will help to cope with all the imperfections.
To begin with, of course, again, you need to turn to professionals for help, however, one consultation will be quite enough to find out in which places the skin will need to be darkened a little, and in which to highlight in order to visually reduce the nose, for example, or sharpen the cheekbones.
Do not forget that all manipulations with correctors, shimmers, and bronzers should look as natural as possible.
AlikeYou / shutterstock 4. Lips
Lips are probably one of the most beloved parts of the face of many girls.
If you have always used pastel shades of gloss or lipstick, try something bright, but please follow the most important rule of bright makeup elements, which makeup artists tirelessly repeat - the rule of accents. There should be harmony in everything, too many bright elements spoil the whole picture, the eye does not know where to stop and, as a rule, does not stop and does not remember anything.
Bright lips + nude eyes and vice versa. There are no women who would not go with bright lipstick, it is just important to choose the right tone. Red, after all, it also comes in different shades, for example, closer to brown or, conversely, raspberry.
By the way, do not forget that the brighter the lipstick, the whiter the teeth will appear.
Among other things, the accent of bright lips obliges us to follow two more rules:
- Facial skin should be perfect. If somewhere on the face there is a pimple or some other spot, lipstick will only emphasize these imperfections and create an image of untidiness and sloppiness.
- The lip contour should be completely even, so you definitely need to purchase a lip liner that can be one tone darker than lipstick, this is a trend this season.
Of course, bright lips are not suitable for every day, but every girl should periodically indulge in such "pampering".

If in terms of makeup it can happen that you don’t put on makeup at all, then in terms of clothing it turns out that you have already chosen some style for yourself. Therefore, making changes here is still a little different.
So what is the best place to start in your body plan?
Subbotina Anna / shutterstock 1. Decollete
How do you feel about the chest cutout? Many girls refuse such a privilege, arguing that they have small breasts, and some, on the contrary, are shy about too big. And both of these sides are wrong, because not only the chest is important in the neckline.
By opening this area, you don't just show your breasts a little (or a lot), your skin, neck and collarbones are also exposed to the public's eyes. Many men are attracted to these elements, so why not draw a little more attention to yourself.
The neckline makes us more feminine, so every girl's wardrobe should have at least a couple of things with such a neckline. And if you still beat him with the right accessories, then you will definitely get a sweetie!
If you can't take and open your chest like that, put on a beautiful kerchief or scarf on top, which at the same time will slightly cover this part of the body, but still will not interfere with the zest that comes from the neckline. Also massive jewelry will come to the rescue, in the form of pearls, for example.
2. Figure
Regardless of the type of figure, you, as a girl, should try to define your femininity as clearly as possible.
Of course, there is no limit to perfection, you can always not just cover up your shortcomings, but also start to fight them with the help of sports, however, first, you need to try to open up in those places that are worthy of attention.
Do you want updates? To your health! Here's a task for you - find the dignity of your figure and beat them with clothes!
Dmitry_Tsvetkov / shutterstock 3. Posture
Probably, we should start with this. Whatever figure you have, whatever makeup or hairstyle you do, all the same, the most important thing in a girl's appearance is a straight back. Beautiful posture attracts attention, the belly is tightened, makes the chest visually larger, you already feel completely differently, and, accordingly, you lead.
nikitabuida / shutterstock Shoes
By the way, shoes directly affect your posture. If you have never worn shoes or boots with heels - be sure to give it a try! And after that you will definitely fall in love with such shoes forever! Thanks to the heel, the figure is transformed just instantly! The back, again, straightens, the stomach becomes smaller, and the legs are longer and slimmer.
However, there is also a "BUT!" Heeled shoes should be comfortable. If this is not the case, then you will no longer have time for long legs and a straight back. It is worth starting slowly, that is, first take a heel with a height of 5-7 cm, and after that, gradually move to 9 cm and higher.
Also, in terms of shoes, you can change its very shape, and not just the heel. For example, if you have never worn pumps or, conversely, slip-ons - be sure to give it a try. Nowadays, it is fashionable to wear sports shoes with dresses, so don't worry that you will stop looking feminine in your sneakers.
Sidarta / shutterstock Accessories
Let's add a little about the accessories. Be sure to wear some jewelry, just remember to balance. If you are wearing long bright earrings, you should not pile up the space around your neck with powerful beads or a pendant. If you put on a huge bracelet, then try to keep the manicure and rings not too flashy, etc.
Sometimes it is lazy to choose something special for a certain outfit, but this laziness should be got rid of. In addition, the same outfit can be beaten with the help of jewelry in completely different ways, and this is so great! Put on a bright kerchief over a black dress - here's one image for you. They hung up a beautiful necklace - and already a completely different look.
It is not necessary to buy a lot of new clothes in order to change something, sometimes it is enough to choose new accessories for an existing wardrobe.

Personal care
There is no woman more beautiful than the one who looks after herself. No matter how much cosmetics you put on yourself, everything is empty, without proper care for your face and body skin. It seems to us that nothing attracts attention like a good manicure, well-groomed skin and a pleasant aroma.
Besides, taking care of yourself is not so difficult. It is enough to just shower with the correct frequency, and also regularly use the products that suit you. At the same time, we are not talking at all about expensive luxury brands of personal care cosmetics. Among the mass market, you can easily find more budgetary alternatives.
Start by properly moisturizing and nourishing your skin, and over time it will repay you with a healthy color and the absence of all sorts of irritants in the form of acne and other imperfections. An upgrade like this never hurts.
The same goes for hair. No amount of hairstyle or styling will hide split ends or dry strands. Take care of your hair, and it will be impossible to take your eyes off it.
Subbotina Anna / shutterstock Internal state
They say that all beauty comes from the inside, so it is extremely important what your inner state is now. Try to think about the good as often as possible, watch funny and kind films, listen to beautiful inspiring music, dwell on the negative as little as possible. Smile more often, and your life will turn upside down, in a good sense, of this phrase.
When you're in a good mood, you start to look different, don't you? Of course, this is probably one of the most difficult ways to change something in your appearance, however, it is also the most faithful and durable.
We often meet beautiful girls, with absolutely extinct or even, on the contrary, some kind of embittered look. Faced with their eyes, all their charm melts, and it's sad. However, if you shine from the inside, no one will even suspect about your far-fetched shortcomings.
