The best bob haircuts for women over 60 with fine hair create an illusion of fullness and volume. The youthful-looking variations include blunt, layered, long and angled, textured, sleek, and so on.
Want a voluminous and presentable look? Hairstylist Dacia Metsker from Henderson, NV says that is what bob cuts offer.
“My #1 suggestion when considering a shorter hairstyle for fine hair is to make sure it fits your daily routine. A bob cut could be a wash-and-go type, depending on your hair,” states Metsker.
Your preferred haircut must also complement your face shape and facial features. Otherwise, the result may come as a shock, especially if you’ve never had a shorter chop.
Bobbed hair requires a precision cut. It’s necessary that you seek professional service. Metsker explains, “It’s very easy to get wrong, so find a stylist who is confident in creating these shapes.”
Ask for styling tips such as the products that can support the style and volume in your locks.
“The right hair products will help you to feel like you can make the most of your new cut. You can also recreate the look your stylist put together at the salon,” Metsker notes.
