Hairstyles for Women Over 40 M2 Salon NC-Okay Oprah may have declared that 40 is the new 30, but with the right hairstyle who needs Oprah?

Women in their 40s and 50s are sexy, self-assured, and at the top of their game. Why go back? Whether you’re looking for a dramatic change or just want to keep your hair long and lush, check out this list of flattering cuts.

CHOPPY BOB – This style elongates the neck and is especially flattering on heart-shaped or oval faces. Ask for a bob with movement and to do the cut on dry hair. Margy Finegan Sheppard at M2 Salon in Morrisville, NC says “It’s like a bonsai-tree-type haircut—you have to keep working at it. If it’s too layered, it’s going to become aging.”

WAVY BOB -Think Halle Berry chin-length bob. (Can you believe she’s 49?) The soft bangs, rumpled texture, and imperfect ends. The bangs give the illusion of fuller volume at the roots (no back-combing required!) and draw attention to your eyes.

LAYERED BOB – This classic style is the perfect choice for women who want to look chic without a lot of maintenance. “Almost any hair texture or face shape can carry a bob,” says hairstylist Margy Finegan Sheppard at M2 Salon in Morrisville, NC, “though tight curls may need a bit more layering, and those with round faces should opt for longer versions. Chin-length bobs are ideal for petite and angular face shapes.” If you want an edgier look, ask for shorter layers in the back and longer ones toward the front.

Margy also offers this advice. “With any bob don’t be afraid to tuck your hair behind your ear and make it look asymmetric. It softens your collarbone and emphasizes your décolletage!”

The beauty of brown hair? Its amazing versatility. An earthy base can be darkened into a rich chocolate, lightened to a warm honey, tinted red or turned ombré and multi-dimensional. But in this picture, the line between brunette and black blurs beautifully with the deepest of dark brown hairstyles.

Shades of brown hair are no less exciting or intriguing than blonde shades.

Getting A Haircut With Bangs at M2 Salon NC-Whether bangs are heavy or wispy, long or cropped, they play an important role in the look of your haircut, since they can define not only your hairstyle, but your face shape and look in whole.

With all their versatility side bangs are very popular today. Any face shape can benefit from side bangs. You will only need to vary their length, thickness and finish.
You’ve probably noticed that many red carpet hairstyles today are paired with side bangs. They can be stylish and seductive, versatile and quite convenient. Long bangs can be styled into a fancy side wave or simply straight on a slant to skim your cheekbone.
If you feel quite happy with your current hairstyle and don’t want to change it fundamentally, try getting some bangs. Margy Finegan Sheppard Owner & Hairstylist at M2 Salon in Morrisville, NC , believes it always wise to ask your hairstylist if he/she thinks the change would be flattering.

Margy says there are a couple of things to keep in mind about the different types/lengths of bangs:

• Bangs on a slant. These can elongate your face, make your cheekbones appear more delicate and suit short and medium haircuts. Besides, with bangs on a slant you can easily conceal a high forehead.
• Long bangs swept to one side. It’s a very versatile type. Short haircuts with long side bangs look chic and eccentric. Medium hairstyles with such bangs acquire added femininity and refinement. With wavy hair you may not flat iron your long bangs. It’s enough to convey them a cute bent.
• Side choppy bangs. Bangs cut chaotically with jagged edges create fun texture and nice volume. They match short-to-medium lengths perfectly. Choppy bangs with defined pieces look great in messy hairstyles.
• Short side bangs. These do not cover the eyes and flatter girls with perfect face and neck contours. Short bangs look the best with short asymmetric haircuts.
