We can’t outrun the clock, no matter how hard we try. That’s okay. We can, however, level the playing field by utilizing a variety of anti-aging techniques. So we use retinol and hyaluronic acid creams. Neglecting our hair is one of the most common mistakes that we make as we age. Don’t worry, no anti-aging skin-care magic is going to work if you’re suffering from aging with darkened hair. By adding warmth and texture to your hair, and by choosing the flattering color, your hair can work for you. You can even instantly reduce some years off your face. Only a few simple strokes can give you a youthful glow.

We wouldn’t say to change the color or cut of your hair, but these are youth-enhancing shades that we believe were straight from the fountains of youth. Learn more about the best hair color options for women over 50. Feel younger, brighter and happier.
