Question

I currently have long light brown hair and its boring. what kind of hairstyle fits a 30yr old woman?

Answer 1

It really is up to you and your personal sense of style. Age is not as much of an issue as personality and overall sense of style. Look at Helen Mirren, Judi Dench, Halle Berry, and Demi Moore. Helen Mirren wears her hair shoulder length and it suits her.
Judi Dench and Halle Berry make short crop cuts look great.
Halle Berry also looks good with longer hair. Demi Moore has been able to go from long to short to long again.

Do you have a more formal, fashion forward or casual style? It also depends on how much change you are seeking and how much time you are willing to spend maintaining a hair style.

If you are seeking a modest change, consider getting layers and/or bangs to add interest and shape to your hair. Layers and longer bangs are a good way to test the water because they grow out easily and offer versatility.

A good hair stylist will take into consideration your face shape and hair texture before cutting your hair.

Some websites where you can find ideas:
www.matrix.com - has a catalog of hairstyles organized by length.
http://hairstyles.free-beauty-tips.com/
www.hairfinder.com
The beauty school section of www.sephora.com has different fashion looks. The focus is on makeup but the hair styles are great and the photos give you a total picture.

Good magazines: Allure & InStyle
Larger bookstores carry magazines dedicated to hair cuts with detailed photos.

Whenever I am seeking a change, I gather about 12-20 photos of hair cuts I like. Then I look to see if there are any common elements and sort them. Over the next couple of days, I eliminate a few and narrow down my choices to about 4-5.

I bring these 4-5 photos with me when I see my hair dresser and ask for her input. I've been with her for over 5 years and she's great about adjusting a hairstyle for my face shape and hair texture.

If you do not have a hair dresser you trust, ask friends for recommendations and book a consultation to see if you want to work with the person. Start out with a little change and as you develop a relationship you can try out more daring looks if you want to with more confidence.

Answer 2

Well i am young so i wouldn't do this but as a 30 year old woman don't get bleach blonde hair or anything. (i find it looks bad on people older than 25 or so than younger) i suggest that if u have light brown i would get some NATUAL looking highlights to spice it up a bit. If you want a cut maybe get a touch of layers 2 have a bit of volume but not 2 many layers!!! GOOD LUCK!!!

Answer 3

any hair style can fit...depends on your face shape though i have a round face and I just got a short pixie cut it looks great on me. Also you have to consider the thickness of your hair also short hair works for me because I have thin hair so it gives me body. I suggest you uploading a pic of yourself and you can go to www.hairfinder.com and try on different hairstyles.

Layers! The right layers makes you look yonger! Especially shoulder length hair with layers.
