Long Hair As We Age

What is the key to keeping our hair long as we get older?
3 key things:

1) Not too long. Somewhere between the collar bone and the arm pit. Some women can go longer if they have lots of natural volume, or backcomb. Height on the top of the head can balance the longer length.

2) Layers are important. They give the hair volume and help to take the focus off the chin and neck areas. (Earrings also help draw attention away from the neck and chin area)

3) Use a styling iron or large curling iron to give your bangs, fringe and crown area a little bounce. (Sponge or Velcro rollers work well too - put them in as soon as your done blow-drying and leave them in till the hair feels cool to the touch)

4) Bring out your eyes and cheeks. Wear a little extra, or a little darker eye make-up. And put the focus on the last places that wrinkles, your cheeks! A warm coral or peach on the apples of the cheeks draws the eyes up and gives a youthful glow.
