Middle-aged ladies have been given some key tips for their next trip to the hair salon

A new haircut can be transformative, flattering your face and potentially taking years off your age.

According to one model, there are two haircuts that women over 50 should consider getting to improve their look.


A fashion influencer and model known as @nerysmiddleton1 took to TikTok to share her top haircut suggestions for ladies in this age group. She advised women to go for either luscious, long locks or a chic bob.

She said: "Hairstyles for the over 50s - if you've got really nice, healthy hair and it's long, rock it.

"Drag it out as long as you can because there's nothing nicer than long, healthy hair.

"I like a bob too - I think that can be really sophisticated and beautiful on a lady."

As for the chops the fashion enthusiast isn't a fan of, @nerysmiddleton1 admitted that she has reservations about "really short hair - even though a lot of women can carry that off".

She also revealed that she isn't too keen on going grey. She said: "There's nothing wrong with that if that's your thing, but I just couldn't do it - but you're very brave if that's what you want to do.

"People do associate grey with old people - and maybe it's wrong, maybe it's not wrong - it is a thing of getting older I suppose. But if I can hide it as much as I can, I will."

Offering some advice for women over 50 considering a revamp, the TikTok creator advised consulting a professional hairstylist.

They will be able to use their knowledge and experience to determine the right cut, colour and style for an individual.

There are many ways women can improve their hair, from styling techniques to experimenting with colour to dietary changes.
