What is the best hairstyle for a woman over 40 and overweight?

Answer 1

what you feel good in!!

Answer 2

It depends on your hair and how you feel the most comfortable. I would suggest a medium-long length (but not too long, mid-back would be good) with some all over longer layers and a few shorter layers cut around the face would flatter you the most. If you cut your hair too short or even just to your shoulder it's going to call more attention to the lower half of your body. You want to draw the eye upward with a longer style with a pretty color to match. Depending on your skin tone, I would go for a nice medium brown with caramel highlights or even a reddish brown with copper highlights. Something vibrant enough to call more attention to your upper half.

When women cut their hair shorter and color it lighter it ages them even more. Long, shiny, brightly colored (meaning not grey or light blonde) hair has always been associated with youth, and longer hair with a great, vibrant color is going to be the best thing to draw attention to your face and not your body. Even if you're uncomfortable with long hair you can always pull it up into a classic ponytail, also a style always associated with youth.

If your hair is shorter now, I would suggest growing it out and only going for small trims as needed (2-3x a year) until your hair is medium to long in length. In the mean time I would still try to have some slight layers put in and have a nice deep, brighter color applied, professionally of course. Go to a salon for your new hair color, and if needed do root retouches at home if you can't afford to visit the salon for color touchups regularly.

Hope this helps!

Answer 3

If your face is round you need a style that will appear to elongate your face. You also do not want to pick a short tight tight style that makes your head appear small compared to the rest of yor body. Look at pics of full size models and see how they wear their hair and take some samples in for your stylist to view with you . too long or too short is a no-no

Answer 4

Depends on the shape of your face. I think ivillage.com has a hairstyle finder that might help.

I dont suggest going ultra short. Sometimes bigger girls with short, flat hair look like pinheads. If you do go short get a cut with lots of volume.

Answer 5

It really depends on the shape of your face and the weight of your hair- like what style it does the best, if it's curly or straight.
I would say- Shoulder length is always a safe flattering bet!

Answer 7

What accentuates your best features is a good start. Don't wear it long just to hide yourself, and don't cut it off because you don't think you can wear long hair. Go have a consult with a stylist and she can point you in the right direction.

Answer 8

shoulder length, nothing with a round shape, lots of layers, the messy or curly look, side swooped bangs. but i realyy don't know because there are alot more things to take into consideration, like your face shape for example. give somemore details on what you look like.
