Hairstyles That Make You Look Younger

In a previous post, we’ve discussed about how important it is to choose hairstyle according to face shape to get maximum effect. But did you know that there is another layer of importance in putting enough thought into what hairstyle to get yourself? That is, it can also make you appear younger (or older) than you really are based on the chosen hairstyle. It’s a scary thought when you consider the idea of it adding several years into your look, but this guide is designed to help you avoid that mistake!

There are plenty of hairstyles that can shed a few years off of your look. Whether you want to give others the impression that you’re younger than you really are, or simply want to maintain a youthful glow in your look through your hair, you can rest assured that it’s possible. Also, it also takes some matching abilities to ensure that you found the style that works best for your hair and facial features.

When choosing a hairstyle, go for what is often attributed for a youthful look – laid back, soft, and preppy. For this reason, short haircuts are associated with a youthful look. In addition, a short haircut exhibits power, confidence, and some boldness, which can definitely give some youthful pep into your hairstyle.

Hairstyles with natural flair to them can also be rejuvenating. If you are sporting bangs or asymmetrical fringes, soften up your look with gentle waves. These can create a more toned down look without losing a sense of flair to your hairstyle. If you are one who like to wear ponytails or updos on a regular basis, you can make the look seem natural by allowing some strands to fall naturally or make it a loose updo. The more casual the hairstyle is, the more youthful your glow will become. Yet another reason not to worry about a strand falling out of place, right?

Whether you have long hair or a short bob, it does not matter because there are still some ideas you can try to give it a youthful pep. Work on achieving more bounce and volume into your hair to make them livelier. Any hairstyle that looks like they were done on-the-go can introduce a young appearance to your look.

Lastly, you can try adding colour into your hair. This is one of the easiest ways to rejuvenate your hairstyle and make it look younger. Copper tones are best for a youthful look while warm brown shades can also achieve the same. Take into account, though, your natural skin tone to see what colours would complement that. Or else, you can run the risk of looking like a drab or worst end up with a tacky hairstyle.
