As I said, I just turned 50...Well my hair is thick brown ,short at this time, with natural wave . What is a good style for me to look nicer,or ok,younger???? Please any advice is really needed...I am older than my husband ,and would just like to look nice. I am dark complected ,meaning I tan easily .
Thankyou...

Flip through magazines of people a little younger than you. Find pictures with hairstyles that appeal to you. Then, take those pics to a hairstylist who can work with those pictures to find something to suit your face shape.
If your hair is brown, you might consider slight (not heavy) highlights in either gold or copper.

Susan,

I think a woman of your age looks nice with short hair..Maybe a wedge,inverted parachute bob,short curly bob would be nice on an olive complected dark haired woman.

A swept cut,textured cut,layered,or a wispy cut..All kinds of short cuts that you could get.

If I were you,I would flip through mags and ask the Stylist..

Hope this helped!
