10 Amazing Hairstyles That Never Age

Crop With Bangs

Go short but sleek with long, versatile bangs that can be swept across the forehead like Kris Jenner and Robin Wright, to the side like Christine Lagarde and Carrie-Anne Moss, or swooped up and off the face like Emma Thompson. It’s a chic solution for anyone but especially works on those with fine, thinning hair. Add highlights for the illusion of thickness that tone-on-tone color provides.

Longish Hair

Long-hair lifers can hang in there with a realistic below-the-collarbone length (two or three inches beneath it — max!). To look modern, add long face-framing layers for movement, a feathery fringe or beachy waves. Check out Jane Seymour, Jaclyn Smith, Téa Leoni, Mary Steenburgen, Laura Dern and Sherri Shepherd. (And trust beauty-editor me, older stars with extremely long hair are always wearing extensions or wigs.)

Curly Ringlets

Let lush, naturally corkscrew manes like those of Melina Kanakaredes, Andie MacDowell, Susan Sarandon, Bebe Neuwirth and Halle Berry (at the 2017 Oscars) be themselves. Boost the bounce and shape with a spin or two of a high-tech curling iron like the Hot Tools CurlBar or BaByliss Pro. Get subtle highlights to emphasize the texture and separation — even dark-brown hair benefits from flashes of caramel or toffee.
