Hair is such a personal, individual thing – the colour, cut and style and overall hair trend you opt for can help to define how you feel about yourself as a person. But at the end of the day, there really are no rules. This means that although there are certain haircuts for older women that look great (for example, the bob hairstyle, shorter hairstyles and even medium-length cuts), it does not mean you ever have to avoid certain looks or opt for 'pre-approved' ones.
"I think the days of a particular 'look' for an older woman are over – long, midi and short are all great on women of a certain age," says Nicola Clarke, founder of Nicola Clarke and Creative Colour Director at John Frieda Salons. Therefore, you should really just cut, colour and style your hair however makes you feel happiest and most confident.
