    I am so glad you included long hair and some gorgeous long hair looks and tips. I am over 60 and still have longer hair. I have always preferred long hair to short especially here in Florida. I am glad I clicked on this video (I almost didn’t) because so many stylists suggest short dated cuts that require lots of products, bold hair colors that look unnatural and require lots of maintenance rather than a softer more modern look. I am going not for a youthful look, but a modern, natural look. Thank you for sharing these tips

    I’m completely white haired at 50. Dyeing it every-other-week to keep my roots from showing was a pain. I went from my light brunette to blond but it was still a pain. Went short, white, and spikey and love it! Nothing worse than a woman in her 50’s trying to look like she did in her 20’s. Nobody’s fooled. Unless you have massive surgery on your face like most of the actresses you showed did (Jamie Lee is fab), Jane Fonda admits to her facial work, most women will not look like your models. Why not have a video on aging gracefully?

      No, you are not the only one. I have had many haircuts that were short. Looks good in the shop but on Day 2, forget it! I am not clever with styling my hair. I finally stopped coloring it and let it grow. It is SO easy. I like a high ponytail, or an over the shoulder pony, or put it in a bun. I like it and now that its grown out from yet another short mistake, I'm keeping it slightly above my shoulders. That is the easiest ever.

    Gabi, I grew out the colored hair and now it’s a natural silver. It is now just at my chin and I’m growing it to a longer bob. My face it extremely round and I’m 70. It was so refreshing to hear that I can still have longer hair which will be a first for me. I have always had short hair of some type so I’m venturing into a new phase of my life. I am lucky that I don’t have lots of wrinkles yet but gravity has been with me for a while now. I believe that a softer look is much better for me now and I am so happy that you agree. Much love and keep the styles and advice coming. Now that I found you I can search for more great information on your channel. 🥰

I think I need to change my hair stylist, it has been a love hate relationship. Some times she gets it and I’m happy but then when I go back for the touch up it’s lie she doesn’t remember what she did last time and something just isn’t right . This last time I went the pixie.. the Hailey Berry style it turned out great ! Middle of summer was perfect, but I go back for trim and I got old lady style 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ So I’m so frustrated. I’m letting it grow out so I can start all over again .. I just wish I could fined someone that could just look at my face .. and hair and give me the hairstyle meant for me!

    Great video and just what I needed as a woman of sixty. I love the bob cut and longer lob cuts. A few months ago my hair was 1 length to my shoulders. I went to a place to get a lob with subtle long layers and came with plenty of photos of the style I hoped to achieve.
    What I ended up with was a shaggy, short layers on top and back of hair, longer layers towards my face hideous mess.....When I tried to style it I looked like a throwback to the 80's!!! Which of course aged me terribly and I've been hiding ever since.
    I just need to find the right stylist that knows how to do bob or lob. The last one I went to clearly had no idea and when she asked me what a Lob was, I should've realized this hair cut was gonna end badly!

    I love your channel so much. You have built a really lovely community! At 60 I look best with a super cropped pixie because it takes years off of my tiny face (think Judy Dench). It's all about finding someone who will customize your pixie, make it work with your gray pattern if you are going with your natural color and, of course, how you style it. I never think of my hair as my "crowning glory" but as an accessory to be updated and played with.

      Do you have very fine hair Susan? If you have super fine hair what you could do is cut the hair just passed the shoulder, keep the entire back blunt and do face framing throughout the front of the haircut. Then you have softening around the front but thickness throughout the haircut!

      I’m 63 and did the very same thing… I had below shoulder length and got pixie two years ago & I loved it but my husband hated it. He would ask me - why do women cut there hair short - do they want to look like a man? I decided to grow it out again… had a bob for a while - it’s now below the shoulder again & I find myself pulling it up or away from my face constantly. Now the gray is really coming in & I think I need to go short so it won’t look so bad growing out… Plus I’m also not wanting to keep up the $130 it cost to get a trim & color every 6-7 weeks. I’m just perplexed as to what to do.

      2. I have never tried rinsing my hair with vinegar. I haven't done any of those natural remedies like vinegar, coconut oil or rise water....maybe worth a try. My hair is so fine that I get scared trying out things like that bc I'm worried it will weigh down my hair. Another great idea for a video.

    Here's a saddish lesson...in our western (American and UK) life, the idea that being older is a something to be ashamed of from our very first birthday. Yhe words, "HOW OLD ARE YOU NOW?" is where the subliminal msg start...compare this with the Spanish "how many years do you have?" This subliminally says you HAVE something, and the more one HAS, the more lucky or honoured one is. The Chinese and Japanese also ask, "what is your age?" Again no mention of OLD implied. I could go on and on, but the bottomline is, American culture is one that seeks to shame persons for a whole range of things, and age is one such thing.
