Hairstyles that Turn Back the Clock of Time

Written by Melodie Garcia, Hairdresser at Golden Ocala.

The cosmetic market is flooded with creams, lotions, vitamins and diet plans all promising to turn back the hands of time. Chasing eternal youth certainly isn’t a new idea, but before you spend a small fortune on such expensive products that may or may not be effective for you, why not think about something you already have – your hair!

Most of us wear the hairstyle we like, the one that suits us, a style we may have sported for years and never really thought about changing. Yet, without realizing it, we could actually be turning the clock the wrong way. Here are a few of my favorite flattering hairstyles that can help give a younger look to your hair.

A Fresh Look for your Hair

The Side Sweep

Soft side-swept bangs with gentle rounded edges can quickly change a serious style into a sweet, girly, and young look.

The Healthy Highlights

Bleaching your whole head blonde is not normally the way to achieve a younger, fresher look! Yet, well placed warm highlights can work wonders for skin tones and give a healthy sun-kissed look.

The Boastful Bob

A “bob” can immediately transform an older-looking face into a younger, fresh one. It’s a classic haircut that will never go out of style. With so many different lengths and ways to wear this look, there’s a way to make this hairstyle flatter anyone. Sweeping bangs also look great with a bob haircut.

The Short and Subtle Shabby

If you already sport short hair (or are thinking of going short), you may want to consider a messed up shaggy look rather than a sleek style. Fine layers will make this hairstyle an easy one to maintain and is guaranteed to bring out the young, fun side of you!

Achieving Eternal Youth may be Easier than You Think!

Whichever hairstyle you are considering, remember that looking ten years younger doesn’t have to involve expensive creams, lengthy cosmetic surgery, or crazy diets. A simple change of hairstyle could shave off the last ten years and have you wondering whether you really have discovered the road to eternal youth!
