Upgrading your style to flatter your new age and changing the way you wear your hair in terms of length, finish, and color could be just what you need to regain your sense of beautiful self!
From graying to changing textures and thinning hair – aging can be hard on your hair, which may be hard on your confidence. While there are treatments and hair care systems to benefit aging hair, sometimes you just need a fresh crop!
Here are fifty hairstyles for women over 60 to inspire you.
1. Feathered Pixie with nape Undercut
Pixies easily adopt to different hair types. This low-maintenance look requires very little styling.
2. Gray Layered Bob
There are tons of movement and dimension to take advantage of in a crop like this. A simple home blow-dry is enough to produce a beautiful textured mane.
3. Lob with Blended Layers
In search of looks that offer much volume to thin hair? Angled layers towards the back do this trick. The somewhat elongated shape of the lob has a cute trendy feel.
Accessorize with fancy glasses to complete the cool and classy lady look.
4. Mid-Length Wavy Gray Bob
This is one of the crops that keep it simple. However, you will not go unnoticed as the hairdo oozes elegance and emphasizes your natural beauty.
5. Put-Together Feathered Wedge
Here’s a contemporary take on the traditional pixies and bobs. This example is longer than a classic pixie, a great combination of wedge and bob!
6. Salt and Pepper U Shape
Medium looks with long layers are very versatile. They can suit pretty much any hair type – curls, waves, or straight strands. Straight crops with layers never look limp or lifeless.
7. Delicate Feathered Bixie
Apart from adding fullness to the front with the deep yet light bangs, this pixie bob melts sandy blonde into natural silver to create dimension in the thin strands and camouflage gray roots as they grow out.
8. Short Bob with Highlights
A super short bob is the perfect in between: a little bit longer than your traditional crop and shorter than your classic bob. This bob is better suited to straight locks.
9. Wavy Buttery Blonde Lob
These before and after pictures show how the face is instantly illuminated by the glossy blonde with a hint of warmth and the fine hair is volumized by the loose waves and swoopy front.
10. Polished Two-Tier Midi
What crops do we usually see around the Internet? Boring one-tone pixies? Bobs that all look the same? No way! We choose to be different! The proper layering makes medium hair a pretty good alternative to shorter crops.
11. Airy Layers with Shiny Highlights
Layers do a great job of bringing movement to thin hair, and bright highlights placed atop gray coverage enhance the effect and fill the tresses with healthy shine.
12. Rounded Blonde Bob
If people around you still joke about the ‘not your grandma’s bob’, just smile and choose this classic bob for your next visit to the salon.
The shape is classic, but the feel is different thanks to the side bangs and soft highlights. This bob will inspire others to crop their hair asap.
13. Blunt Bob with Iced Roots
The pin straight, blunt bob is professional and gorgeous in its own simple way. The delicate golden blonde balayage with pale highlights throughout complements this modest shape.
14. Shaggy Bob with Bangs

If your hair is naturally on the curly side, that’s a big plus. If not, no big deal, you can easily curl it. Curls always add body and volume to all hair types and textures.

Those shiny silver tresses are gracefully gorgeous and elegant. The reason why youngsters are in love with gray highlights. A classic bob in a silvery shade is amazeballs.
