Shaggy layered mane
Shaggy layered mane
The shaggy cut is one of those infallible when it comes to bringing movement and youth to the hair. This layered cut adapts to the shape of your face and shoots the ends for an effect of incredible volume and movement.
According to the stylist Noelia Jiménez: “50 is the new 30. Reaching this age does not mean that you have to resort to boy cuts. If you have a natural wave, Shaggy layered hair, like the one Cindy Crawford is sporting, is a great choice. It is very flattering, very stylish and can be very jovial . It's a layered cut with more volume on top to add texture. The uneven locks provide a carefree air to the very attractive hairstyle. My advice: take the part to the side to create a fresher and more youthful effect ”.

Carré
Carré
David Lesur, one of the people in charge of David Künzle , has it clear: the carré is the king of short cuts . “It is one of the cuts that rejuvenates the most and, therefore, that most flatters after 50. The bob is a timeless classic that never goes out of style, be it short, long, paraded, faded, with straight or long bangs and diagonally, with or without a line… ”.
We are facing a court for which there are no rules. It is valid for all types of faces. It is perfect for sharpening oval faces if it is left longer and for softening hard , marked features or elongated faces, if you opt for a shorter version. For more angular faces or those with loss of elasticity, the professional recommends “the carré bouclé (with waves) because it softens the features and is an ultra-feminine hairstyle that allows a great variety of changes. It's easy to handle from the stylist's point of view, but you should be clear about the ideal style and length before you start. "
The bob is also an ideal haircut if you have a lot of thick hair.

There are those who think that short hair does not offer too many possibilities. They are wrong! The pixie is one of the most versatile and flattering cuts out there. “The same is great with a more pronounced quiff on top or transforming it into a boyish leaving the contours longer,” says Paul Tudor , first stylist of the David Künzle Fuencarral salon. “It is a perfect cut for women in their 50s due to its versatility. The key is to correctly adapt the bangs to the cut . A visually much younger and more current appearance is achieved ”.
For her part, Roxana Gutu , director of Lobelia Sagasta, highlights the practicality of the pixie: “Its care takes much less time than other cuts. It favors round, oval and square faces and is perfect with all kinds of shades. Very cool and highly moldable. "The pixie does not matter how you style it because it always looks good.
Charlize Theron does not reach 50 (she is only 44), but she is one of the greatest exponents of this cut. The actress constantly proves that short hair can be as sexy and feminine as an XXL mane .

The JLo thing is not even normal. Every day that passes is better. Everything suits her, and both she and her team know how to make the most of it. The artist recently swapped her usual long bob for an asymmetrical curly long bob below the shoulder . It remains to die for! “It is a perfect cut to add more volume in a practical and natural way. It is a highly recommended option for those women who lack time and do not want to be slaves to their hair, "says Noelia from the Noelia Jiménez salon .
This cut is rejuvenated and very easy to maintain. Simply touch up the ends every two months to regain movement.

Medium bob
Medium bob
Many women are not willing to give up their hair no matter how old they are. If this is your case, a worn medium bob, like the one Jennifer Aniston wore at the last Golden Globes gala, may be your best choice.
It is a very sophisticated cut with which you do not have to risk too much . According to the owner of the Salon Noelia Jiménez, “this iconic mane that caresses the shoulders is a good alternative. You can wear it with the slightly high part and bet, as Jennifer does, on very long layers worn at the ends, which offer a much wilder air. The lifting effect is assured!
Who is it suitable for? Noelia removes us from doubts: “ It is ideal for not very tall women who want to wear long hair. It especially favors a round facial oval or a prominent chin, since it softens many of the features ”, she concludes.
Garcon

The garçon is also a good alternative to take a few years off . This cut is constantly updated, offering multiple possibilities. It favors practically all types of faces and its great versatility allows it to adapt to all types of women.
Sharon Stone has just bet on this cut and, according to Noelia, it has been a great success. “ Blond, blunt hair removes formality, gives movement, brings freshness and takes years off. Playing with the different lengths and volumes asymmetrically, but studied, generates a lot of movement. Layers and strands strategically placed on the face add youth and harmonize the overall image of the face. I always speak of asymmetry, not disorder. It is an asymmetrical sculpture adapted to each person ”.
Without a doubt, with the Sharon Stone haircut you will take 10 years off and you will look more beautiful than ever.
