What’s the one thing that can make an already amazing hairstyle even more incredible no matter your age? Bangs, of course. They can freshen up your look or give you a complete transformation, creating a style perfectly tailored to flatter your face.
When you’re ready to take your style to the next level, check out these gorgeous hairstyles with bangs for women over 50 we’ve prepared for you.
1. Modern Shag
The modern shag is a contemporary haircut that works at every age, but doesn’t need a lot of work. Thanks to the choppy layers and bottleneck bangs, it looks beautiful worn down and up, framing the face and creating a carefree vibe.
2. Bob With Bangs
Combining a bob with bangs isn’t unexpected, but this timeless look is ever-popular for a good reason: it’s the perfect match for every age, hair type and aesthetic.
3. Pixie With Micro Fringe
A cute pixie cut will draw attention to your beautiful face, making you look fresh and youthful. Opt for a textured instead of sleek look if you prefer a laid-back vibe.
4. Layered Cut With Textured Bangs
Textured bangs and flowy layers are a great choice if you want something tousled, undone and with lots of face-framing.
5. Long Layered Hair With Wispy Fringe
Long hair can fall flat and drag the face down—to avoid it, steer clear from one-length haircuts. Layers remove weight and bulk, making the hair more manageable and lively.
6. Waves With Curtain Bangs
You want to update your look, but you’re not ready to take the leap? Curtain bangs are a move you won’t regret: they instantly transform any haircut and look amazing on everyone.
7. French Bob
Anything French is always synonymous with stylish and chic, and the French bob is no exception. In your 50s, laid-back looks are far more flattering than anything too structured, and what’s more carefree than this iconic style?
8. Shaggy Lob
The shaggy lob is a step beyond your classic textured look: it has a similar vibe, but the layers are much more visible. This update on the classic pairs beautifully with bangs.
8. Shoulder-Length Hair With Choppy Layers
If your hair is fine or thin, choppy layers might be just what you’re looking for. They add texture and body to make the hair appear thicker, and if you want to take things up a notch, help them out by adding some texture spray to your tresses.
10. Textured Bob With Bangs
Wispy bangs are a fun twist on the classic textured bob that adds lots of soft charm to an otherwise edgy look.
11. Shaggy Medium Hair
Shaggy haircuts are among the best hair trends of the past few years—they’re universally appealing and highly customizable to perfectly complement your individual features.

The classic bob with bangs has been around for a hundred years and it’s still relevant. The perfect choice for a signature look!
13. Choppy Long Hair With Face-Framing
Long, wavy hair is incredibly versatile: you can rely on it to work for any occasion. Pair it with wispy bangs and face-framing layers for even more styling options.
14. Choppy Bob With Bangs
Choppy layers and full bangs are an unusual combination, but this look works. This is the magic of bobs and bangs—you too can find your own perfect mix.
15. Inverted Bob With Bangs
Slight graduation in the back will add lots of volume to your bob, but avoid going too high and bulky. Instead, add even more body with texturizing products and flattering bangs.
16. Long Hair With Birkin Bangs
Parted bangs are full but not as harsh as straight-across fringe, so they work with a variety of face shapes. If you love wearing your hair straight and long, easily create a lift and avoid a flat look with a spritz of texture spray.

A short, face-framing bob haircut is incredibly fresh and flattering, and to make it even better, it’s completely effortless.
