Nowadays, when using modern self-care products, choosing the right wardrobe, women at the age of 55-57 do not look elderly at all. The haircut plays an important role here. If you choose everything correctly, then even 60-year-old women can be made into modern beauties.

"Pixie" is one of those hairstyles that, at the suggestion of a stylist, help to hide age-related imperfections: wrinkles on the face or neck, or slightly sagging skin. Therefore, you should carefully approach the choice of a master. You also need to take into account that haircut has options and you can choose the most suitable for a particular type of hair and face.

More often than not, hair becomes thinner and more brittle with age. Of course, with the help of proper care, they can be restored a little, but it is unlikely that it will be possible to return the previous volume. In this case, such a hairstyle as "pixie" will help to make the appearance better. For soft and fine hair, it will be a real salvation. After all, combining short and long strands, you can make your hairstyle very lush and beautiful.

• Now the trend is such a variation of the hairstyle as "pixie bob". Most often it is made one-sided, in this case one side is cut off, and an asymmetrical and slightly elongated bang is made on the other. In the double-sided version, the whiskey is shortened immediately on both sides, the bangs can remain quite long.

Among other things, these haircuts allow women to remain attractive in any situation. Even with wind and rain, the hairstyle will not suffer too much.

The hairstyle must be chosen according to the type of face.

• If the face is round, the hair should not be cut too short. They should not be shorter than the cheekbone line. But on the crown, the hair should be made as voluminous as possible.
• With a long face, it is best to use a haircut with long bangs and a completely flat nape. In this case, the less voluminous the hairstyle, the better.
• For women with a square face, clear cheekbones and a wide jaw, “pixie” with bangs obliquely is suitable. This will help distract attention from both a very wide forehead and cheekbones.
• If the shape of the face is trapezoidal, then in the area of ​​the temples the haircut must be voluminous. This technique will visually enlarge a narrow forehead.

It follows that a pixie haircut is suitable for any woman. The main thing is to choose the right hairstyle for your face type.
