Haircut after 60: how to look younger with gray hair?

If you want to stop coloring to no longer camouflage your white hair, without it radically aging your face or giving you a “fading” look, it is essential to monitor 2 points: your haircut on the one hand, and the care you give to your hair on the other hand.

Indeed, the key to making your gray hair a charming asset after 60 is to flatter your features and the shape of your face with a well-designed haircut. The latter can, in fact, have a rejuvenating effect on the oval of your face by slightly lifting it, and help you to discreetly hide some deep wrinkles which harden your features. Then, the other prerequisite for wearing your gray hair naturally and for it to be rewarding is to take care of it well by adapting to its changing texture (sometimes rougher and frizzier than before) to give it a healthy and well-maintained appearance. Likewise, you must take care to combat the yellow reflections that salt and pepper or white hair sometimes takes on when exposed to the sun and the heat of styling appliances. To do this, nothing could be simpler: just use a purple shampoo regularly, which will neutralize them.

Haircut after 60: 5 “anti-aging” hairstyles perfect to make you look younger with your gray hair

• the bixie cut: A hybrid of a short bob and a pixie cut, this very trendy short cut has the advantage of rejuvenating the face and appearance. Cut quite short at the nape of the neck, well layered and displaying a longer layered strand at the front, this voluminous short cut is perfect for compensating for the lack of density in fine hair. Easy to style, it is best worn slightly disheveled after the age of 60 and on salt-and-pepper hair, to modernize the wearing of short hair as much as possible.
• the plunging square: bold and original enough to avoid any risk of gray hair having a “memerizing” look, but still very chic, it is a clever bob cut to enhance the oval of the face after 60 years. By dressing the lines of the jaws, it makes you forget their less clear contours than before. Be careful, however, not to be too radical with the asymmetry between the front of the cut and the length at the nape of the neck: only a slightly plunging line is rejuvenating. Too pronounced asymmetry would be rather “memerizing”. But if you follow this advice, it’s a guaranteed “10 years younger” effect haircut!
• the shag cut: It’s the most rejuvenating hairstyle of all to wear for a “rejuvenating effect” according to one hairstylist, and it’s also perfect if you don’t color your gray hair. Nothing like its seventies gradient which incorporates long bangs and creates multiple layers of hair in the hair to give yourself a hyper modern rock’n’roll chic style! Easy to style on a daily basis, it happily lets the texture of the hair develop naturally in the morning for easy maintenance.

• the lob square : the bob cut is an essential hairstyle to modernize a look when you wear your natural white and gray hair. With an elongated version of the classic bob, we also dress the lower part of the face to hide its loose contours and have a slightly lifting effect that is most flattering after the age of 60. In addition, this long bob, the strands of which touch the collarbones, can easily be worn on almost all types of hair textures: from straight to curly, from wavy to more or less flexible curls. Neither too long to keep volume at the roots, nor short enough to risk emphasizing fine and thinning hair, it is a super rejuvenating hairstyle after 60 years.
• the long layered cut around the face: If you are lucky enough to have healthy salt and pepper hair that is not too fragile, then long hair can be a very good option for sporting a super modern look. Andie MacDowell proved it to us, straight or curly, gray hair worn long is sublime and super rejuvenating when it is judiciously layered on the contours of the face to frame it. With an oval gradient that rejuvenates the oval of the face, they help to have volume and movement in the hair for a very modern and rejuvenating style, as long as you are reasonable about the length. So dare to go for lengths below the shoulders, but not long hair that touches the small of your back.
