Long hair. Over Forty and Long Hair? - Continued

Lighten the top portions of your hair, not the ends, the top portions of your hair that is lightened is going to draw others eyes away from your face and to your body all over so even if you have a few wrinkles or such, no one is going to notice as much otherwise.

Add layers to your hair, giving it a fuller look without the straight and narrow look. A nice long hairdo is going to allow your hair in layers to look curlier and fuller, that will make your overall appearance younger and fresh looking. 

When you find that your hair is going through those in between stages when you don’t feel it looks so great, start using a spray or a little lifting gel close to the roots to give your hair a bit more body, this will take away from your age and make you look younger. 

Keeping your hair long no matter what the age does take a little look, but often times a longer hair style can actually make you look younger if you just put a little time into doing your hair! Keep brushing for a shine that will gleam.
