Hairstyles For 40ish Women

Try a new hairstyle as you become 40-ish.


As women age, makeup and hair often change. Hair can become more dry and brittle as you get older. Not only does personal style adapt with age, but your facial structure changes too. Hairstyles for 40-ish women should be flattering and age appropriate -- but not matronly.


Short and Wavy


A short and wavy hairstyle looks sassy on a 40-ish woman. It can be styled professionally during the day and more daring during the evening. The hair is cut short so that it is just a bit longer than a pixie cut. The hair should be left longer, layered and textured. That allows the hair to be styled in waves. Scrunch the waves and wear the style a bit messy for everyday hair.


Long Bob


A long bob is flattering on women of any age. In this hairstyle, the length is about 1 inch above shoulder-length. Your hair is cut so that it is slightly shorter in the back and angles to the front. Add side-swept bangs to frame your face. A long bob is a versatile hairstyle for 40-ish women as it looks lovely worn either straight or curly.


Shoulder-Length


A layered, shoulder-length hairstyle is age-appropriate for women over 40. The layers create shape and style and are necessary for a lift at the crown. Use either a flat iron or curling iron to style this cut. The shoulder-length hairstyle is long enough to pull into a low ponytail as well -- a ponytail might add a youthful element without trying too hard.


Angled


A short, angled hairstyle works well for both thick or fine hair. Your hair is kept short in the back and on the sides. The angled layers should be razored and given texture using styling wax. For a woman in her 40s, this short, angled cut is easy to wash and style.
