Chopping age with a haircut- 2016 Short hair styles

At some point in life everyone especially women want to get a youth fix. You could use an anti-wrinkle cream and wait 6 or 8 weeks to look noticeably younger. Or you can head to the salon right now and take years off today. Believe me or not, your hairstyle could actually take years off (or add them to) your look.

Most Women and their hair are inseparable. And for many women, a haircut is considered forbidden, out of bounds, taboo something of the sort. If you told me to chop or even just get a simple hair trim six years ago, you would be risk being considered a terrorist automatically.  The truth is that God blessed me with good quality hair, so it always seemed like there was no need to cut it.

My brand new look
But a time came when I wanted change, I wanted to look different, I wanted a brand new look and what better way than to get a haircut. 
Surprising one month ago I decided to get a haircut and I feel wonderful about it.
On 20th February 2016, without telling anyone, I went to the saloon and came back home with a brand new look-unrecognizable. I couldn't stop looking at myself in the mirror. Considering the fact that the weather has been beyond hot, it was the best decision I made in February.

Youthful Hairstyles and hair cuts

If you want a badass hairstyle that will make you stand out from the crowd, you are at the right place. Shaved hairstyles used to be associated with punks, but things have changed. More and more trendy women opt for shaved styles because they look edgy and feminine at the same time. 

*Most ladies* are going short, so now's the time to take the plunge. But you do not want any old haircut, and once you do commit to the chop, how the hell are you supposed to style it? Here are some of the ways that will inspire you.

The only thing that makes a new cut better is doing a completely unexpected (if short-lived) color. You can add some colour like maroon or even blond if you are bold enough.

Wash and wear hairstyle; "wash and wear" is worth mentioning to your stylist. This will help him understand the low-maintenance look you are after. The amount of hair to leave on the top depends on your individual style and facial features. You can mess it up a little to achieve that free and young look.

Youth can't be bought but old looks can be delayed

Youth can't be bought but old looks can be delayed

We all know Gabrielle Union who is 43 but actually looks 26, Pharrell Williams who is also 43 but looks 25.  Well most of you will say that those are celebrities and have everything they need to keep young. They can afford expensive makeup, gym, surgery .... etc...

Let’s forget about celebrities. How can an ordinary person maintain that 4eVerYoung look without spending lots of money? 

Almost on daily basis, I meet a lady who says, " you have a beautiful skin," "your skin is radiant," "your skin is glowing," "What do you use on your skin?" "What's the magic behind your flawless skin?" 
     "Sometimes I wonder where to start from when it comes to giving recommendations because, getting a beautiful skin is a process, its not an overnight thing."

Some people get surprised when I tell them my age they think I am much younger, most think I am 5 or 6 years younger than my real age.

Some walk away very disappointed thinking that I haven't told the truth. But why should I lie? It is better to give an honest answer than advice wrongly. A few are happy and share good results with me.  

Well my dear friends, fasten your seat-belts for we are going to share lots of beauty secrets here. I welcome comments and advise, let's help each other and age gracefully.
