Short Haircuts for Women Over 60 With Thick Hair
Contents
Turning 60 marks a time for change and why not start with your hair? Thick hair offers many styles but requires the right cut. Let’s dive into tips from Courtney Calloway, a pro in styling short hair for women over 60.
Style is Key
You long for a short cut but worry about the upkeep. Courtney Calloway assures you that maintenance is key. Be ready to style your short hair every day. Plan a visit to your salon every 4-6 weeks. All in all, it’s worth it to keep your tresses looking their best.
Finding The Perfect Cut
Now, let’s talk about what’s most flattering for your face shape. It’s all about balance, according to Courtney.
For a round face, she advices against short cuts. Angled bobs or layered bobs work well, she notes.
Got a square face? Keep it soft near the face with either face-framing layers or a curtain bang.
Long faces look good with bangs most of the time.
If your face is heart-shaped, she suggests drawing attention below the cheek bones. Look at haircuts at or below the chin for the best fit.
Best Hair Products to Use
Styling your short hair can be a breeze with the right tools. Courtney has a few tips and product recommendations for you.
A blow dry brush or round brush that is the appropriate size is key. She strongly recommends Brazilian blowout styling products to combat frizz and a light oil – Surface Bassu Hydrating Oil – to keep your hair smooth.
Next, consider smoothing creams. Always apply to wet hair, never dry.
Her top pick for maintaining shine and style is blow dry spray. Just be careful of adding too much volume to avoid looking like you’re wearing a helmet, she warns.
In the end, the key to a great short cut is to work with your natural hair texture and face shape. With these tips from Courtney, you’re well on your way to finding your perfect style.
