Stylists have been telling us for years that a short bob was the perfect cut to look younger. Today’s hot look is a choppy version of the traditional bob. It will give you an edge that shaves years off your appearance and the shorter length will draw attention to your eyes.

The days of straight cut bangs are long gone and today’s beauties are going for the side swept look. If you are trying to look younger, consider adding bangs that sweep gently to the side to hide any laugh lines or wrinkles that might appear on your forehead. By choosing the softer side swept version, you will play up the natural angles of your cheekbones.

If you love your long hair, you don’t have to chop it off when you get older. The key is making sure that length doesn’t drag down your face and leave you looking tired or saggy. To add constant volume to your style, ask your stylist to cut long layers that will frame your face and add some texture to your length.
5. It’s All about Movement

Whether you choose long layers, effortless waves, or a choppy bob, there is one common theme among all of these styles. They all include lots of movement instead of being stiff or too structured. Don’t fall into the trap of hair styles that don’t move when you do. Go for a cut that has lots of texture and movement.
6. Go Longer in the Front

Varying the length of your hair can change the look of your face in an instant. If your hair falls right along the lip line, it can make your neck appear saggy and cause the slightest double chin to seem prominent. Instead, go for the short length in the back, but ask your stylist to taper it where the front is a bit longer so it reaches your chin. This adds a little drama and will lengthen your face, rather than making it look round or full.
7. Try the Side Braid
