Most modern haircuts are designed to be worn in several ways, such as spiky hair and medium-length strands. The first ones require a certain courage and willingness to change, the presence of almost perfect facial features. The latter are more delicate, always with a lot of styling options, but requiring more care.
The most stylish haircuts of recent seasons have the main emphasis on the texture of unusual bangs. Hairdressers are still arguing about whether ladies of 50 years and older should cut bangs. Some talk about its weighting effect. Others appreciate the youthful effect of bangs and its ability to hide wrinkles, even out the face oval and correct other flaws of the appearance.
In any case, if bangs are to your liking, you should not refuse it depending on your age. So what are the best hairstyles for over 50

It is suitable for women with different hair types and face shapes. On its basis, it is very convenient to create a variety of every day and evening styling. There are versions with bangs and lengthening of the front side strands, with gradation and volume on the crown.
Pixie
The haircut was originally created for spiky hair with almost no bangs. Modern stylish variants have unusually shaped bangs as the main accent and elongated shape of the strands. The haircut is very interesting, and gives even the thickest and finest hair a volume. The desired shape is given by focusing the base of the hair at the nape of the neck and alternating strands of different lengths and thickness. It takes 5 minutes to create casual styling with mousse. The result is a bouncy, creative, fresh look with a twist for a bright and confident woman.
Garson
Men’s hairstyle has migrated to women’s styles and has quickly gained the love of graceful and active women. The short length and graduated structure help you look good always, even in the absence of styling. Garson is a maximum youthful effect at a minimum cost. At the same time, the color should be maintained at all times in a neat condition. And to maintain feminine accents in the image, light and harmonious makeup will always be appropriate.
Care
Surely every woman at least once in her life has worn this haircut on medium length hair. It can be called a hairstyle beyond time and age. But to ladies over 50 it suits best, emphasizing the natural beauty and naturalness of the image. With one of its varieties it is easy to create a flawless style. To distract attention from the problem areas, you can choose filigree bangs or strands almost to the shoulders on the sides of the face. It is only worth avoiding too saturated colors in the coloring, giving preference to the nobility.

Its essence is to cut the hair strands at an angle and arrange hair of different lengths in a kind of “staircase”. This method can easily enliven any usual haircut.

Gavroche
If a woman is looking for a spectacular haircut, wants to look perky and fresh, she makes a Gavroche. Gavroche is a classic. When it is cut, the main strands are trimmed short, and the rest are left long. The Gavroche is used to emphasize the depth of the eyes, the smile, and hide the hated wrinkles.
