Women have been encouraged to take a trip to the hair salon for French bangs and face-framing layers

Women over 50 can gain a "new lease of life", with a particularly flattering haircut, according to a beauty, fashion and lifestyle content creator.

Annamaria Kaelbic, 52, urged ladies to try out the new chop that's made her feel decades younger.


Last year, the influencer (@annamariakalebic on TikTok) debuted a new look. She said: "Ladies, you need to try out this haircut. This is your sign to get French bangs and face-framing layers.

"I feel like a teenager again - and that's saying something because I'm 51."

French bangs are loved for their effortless chicness. They are longer than the typical fringe - almost in the eyes - and taper off to the sides to frame the cheekbones.

Face-framing layers are strategically shorter pieces of hair that do exactly as the name suggests: frame the face. This can be very flattering and accentuate a woman's features.

The influencer continued: "I just love this. I wish I'd done it ages ago."

As well as looking chic and youthful, this particular style is ready to go without much daily styling.

Indeed, Annamaria filmed her video after a trip to the beach, complete with windswept and salty hair from the sea - "and it still looks great".

She encouraged other ladies to go for it, calling the chop "the best thing ever".

It's important to note that face-framing layers and French bangs don't come without their challenges.

Particularly with bangs, these must be trimmed fairly regularly, the general consensus being every two to three weeks.

For women who don't feel Annamaria's French bangs and face-framing layers are for them, another influencer shared the "magical" haircut that makes women look "easily 10 years younger".

She also advised against a prematurely ageing style that "pulls the face down".

As well as an excellent cut, ladies who want to take years off their appearance and look their best may want to consider the lifestyle factors that could impact their hair.

Annamaria shared the simple dietary tweak that gave her the best hair she's had since her 20s.

Women can also look younger by updating their skin care routines. Women can reduce mouth wrinkles by ditching daily habits that have a "significant impact".
