As you age, your hair gradually begins to look different, it no longer looks as hydrated, it becomes finer, has less density and looks duller. Therefore, the best strategy to counteract this is to team up with the right products and opt for haircuts for fine hair. According to the hairdressing expert Moncho Moreno: “It is not about fighting against the hair, but about accompanying it with intelligence.”
But beyond the cut and the specific care that hair needs after 50, we cannot detract from the good work of a strategic hairstyle. Experts know perfectly well that fine hair has specific needs, but also many possibilities; And within the trend hairstyles there are many that are perfect when you don't have much density.
Bob hair, but better textured
We are not discovering anything if we say that medium hair is perfect for rejuvenating the image and hair, which is why many women when changing their look opt for a bob hair. But if you have fine hair, the best way to take advantage of it is with a textured finish. In this way, the hair will gain volume and, being textured, will have more body.
According to expert Alberto Cerdán, to achieve this you need a light mousse or volumizing spray, a dryer with a nozzle, a round brush and flexible hold spray.
Low volume ponytail at the crown
Another of the most attractive and functional hairstyles is undoubtedly the low ponytail with an effortless effect. According to hairdresser Moncho Moreno, it is “natural and elegant, without rigidity, as if you hadn't had to think much about it.” This hairstyle is great for fine or sparse hair, achieving the effect of greater volume and density.
The key is to provide volume and texture at the top. To do this, you should make a part on one side and brush gently in the crown area. The hair is gathered in a low ponytail and some strands can be left loose towards the face to frame it.
Pixie with volume
The important thing in this pixie is to play with volume, so the cut has to maintain a certain length at the top. To enhance that voluminous and tousled effect, use the dryer against the grain and apply dry shampoo, wax or a mild hairspray. Of course, according to the expert: “Avoid shiny gels, because they flatten. If you need to touch up during the day, a touch of dry shampoo is enough,” advises Cerdán.
Semi-collected with waves
For those who do not want to tie their hair up completely, there is nothing like an elegant semi-updo. This type of hairstyle is equally ideal for long hair and medium hair. “It is a feminine, fresh and very versatile look, valid for both everyday and a special occasion,” says Moreno.
In the case of fine hair, the ideal is to provide texture with wide waves. Using tweezers, mark the entire length, undo them slightly with your fingers and fix them with light lacquer. To do the semi-updo you only have to separate the upper part of the hair and gather it back.
