As you get older, you might be less inclined to adopt a new hairstyle, but there is one hairstyle element that suits every woman – of every age – a stylist has revealed. No matter your hair colour, texture or face shape, women, and those over 50 especially, should have a fringe if they want to look youthful.
Fringes or bangs can vary in length and style, but they are usually shorter strands of hair that fall over the scalp’s front hairline to cover the forehead, usually stopping on the eyebrow line.
Depending on what shape face you have, a fringe or bangs is one of the best ways to enhance your features to look younger a stylist has said.
As women get older, it’s common for crow’s feet and wrinkles to develop on the forehead and around the eyes, so getting a hairstyle with a fringe can help cover these areas, thus hiding the features which can give away your age.
Hair stylist Holly Dear said: “A fringe is a great way to start the framing around the eyebrow and cheekbones. That c curvature is the best way to highlight the face shape and bring out a more youthful look.”

Layers in the body of the hair will also “add volume” so the hair doesn’t hang limply around the jaw.
They’re also great for anyone with fine hair, or areas of the scalp that are thinning.
