Curtain bangs are the ultimate face-softeners, and paired with medium layers, they bring breezy lift and balance. This combo works wonders for framing mature features and keeping things light around the eyes.

A little bob with big impact. The mini bob is cropped close to the chin for a sculpted, age-defying shape that’s easy to style and refreshingly modern—great for thinning hair or fine texture.

Rock star vibes with grown-up sophistication! Modern shags feature face-framing layers that work with your natural texture. Sleep on it damp and wake up looking effortlessly cool.

Farrah Fawcett’s iconic style gets a modern update with softer, more natural feathering around the face. The lightweight movement instantly brightens your features and requires just quick blow-drying.

Not quite pixie, not quite bob—this magical in-between length offers the best of both worlds! Shorter at the nape with gradually longer layers toward the face creates effortless elegance.
9. Long Layers with Curtain Bangs
Longer locks stay manageable with strategic layers and face-framing curtain bangs. This youthful style works beautifully for those blessed with naturally straight or slightly wavy hair textures.
10. Textured Crop with Side-Swept Fringe
Playful yet sophisticated, this short cut features longer pieces on top for styling flexibility. The side-swept fringe minimizes forehead lines while drawing attention to your beautiful eyes.

Embrace your natural curls with this sassy, short cut that celebrates texture! Simply wash, add curl cream, scrunch and air-dry. Your beautiful silver curls become an elegant statement piece.
15. Soft Undercut
Modern without being too edgy, this style keeps the nape and sides shorter while leaving length on top. The subtle undercut dramatically reduces styling time while creating cool dimension.

Elegant simplicity defines this shoulder-skimming cut with minimal layers. The clean lines and side part create a sophisticated frame for your face while requiring just basic blow-drying.

The classic wedge gets a modern update with softer layers throughout. This architectural cut creates volume at the crown while keeping the nape area sleek and easy to manage.
19. Wavy Lob with Balayage
This shoulder-grazing cut works beautifully with natural waves. Add subtle balayage highlights to create dimension that disguises grays growing in, extending time between color appointments considerably.

21. Classic Pixie Cut
Quick-dry and go! This timeless short cut frames your face beautifully while minimizing morning styling time. Just add a dab of texturizing product for instant polish.
22. Bob superposé
