[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think a lot of women aren't doing the middle-aged mom haircuts anymore.  But I know a couple and it's so aging on them.  I don't really get why women do that to themselves.[/quote]

This! There used to be a rule that you HAD to cut your hair short once you reach a certain age, but the reality is that [b]short hair cuts are really hard to pull off and look frumpy/matronly real quick.  Long hair almost always looks more youthful than short hair.[/b] Also short hair puts more emphasis on your face which isn’t good for an aging face, especially back in the day when women smoked and worshiped the sun.

I think people living longer lives plays a big part in it too.  We are all living longer on average and people realized that you aren’t old in your 40s and 50s when you live into your 90s, so why look and act like it? [/quote]

Exactly.  [/quote]

I don’t agree with this at all. Lots of older women look terrible with long hair. (Myself included.)  It really depends on their face and the shape of the cut, but short works much better on many women.[/quote]

I know too many women around late 40's or 50 that look terrible with long hair. Their hair is thinning. It is not a good look.
It just looks scraggly. Shoulder length bob for these women would be a vast improvement.

A lot more people are getting extensions to fill in that thinness these days! I am not doing that - I just don't have it in me to maintain fake hair - but I think it is making a lot of women's hair look fuller, for longer.[/quote]
