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...

I think you should try thinning your hair out a little and using a straightener. A lot of people straighten it and flip to ends out. Try a golden brownish/dark blondish highlite. It will look great with tan skin. You can also try some long wispy bangs, those are defintely coming back. Lots of layers will make your hair feel lighter, give it more body and it will absolutely style better. I hope this helps!

Thankyou for your advice. Sounds great. Do you think letting my hair grow to like shoulder length and then with your suggestions would be flattering??? I get tired of really short hair sometimes. Thankyou..

It you have enough body in your hair, then shoulder length would look great, especially for the winter months to come. I just suggested short because most people complain about lack of body. As long as you feel comfy in it, it'll look good!
