In our fifties, we often want a little hair change, to highlight our face and boost the volume of our hair. “After 50 years, it is certain that the recommended cuts are those worn above the shoulderswhich do not pull the features down but really bring freshness to the face” explains Elodie Comtesse, hairdresser for Schwarzkopf. If we often recommend shortening your lengths by a few centimeters, what looks should you opt for exactly? Short cut, square, layered, bangs? What hairstyles best highlight the face in your fifties? The hairdresser gives us 3 examples of very trendy haircuts in 2024, which bring a touch of freshness and dynamism to the facee. A first source of inspiration for those who would like to change their mind when spring arrives.

3 trendy haircuts, perfect for enhancing the face after 50

• The ball cut : this very dynamic cut “brings a lot of style and elegance” to the look according to the hairdresser. “You can also embellish it with bangs” recommends the expert. Between the square and the short cut, this haircut is ideal for those looking for a model that is easy to live with and maintain. A very beautiful haircut also on wavy or curly hair.

• The boyish cut : the ideal short cut “if you have a thin face” explains the hairdresser. If you wear glasses, opt for a short cut with “a movement on the forehead”, like a pixie cut or a bixie. The latter, brought up to date by Eve Gilles, Miss France 2024, is characterized by its well-defined volume on the top of the head, its nape and its shorter sides.

• The wavy square : this very versatile haircut allows you to highlight the oval of the face and bring a touch of modernity to the look. Opt for a mid-neck length, long enough to fit the oval of the face, and short to make the head look slim. Another variation: the slightly plunging wavy bob which brings a little touch of originality to the look.
