Most women over 50 love a classic blunt cut. It makes sense since this no-nonsense hairstyle is a convenient go-to look for anyone. But as handy as it is, this type of haircut tends to flatten, and you may see yourself with helmet hair in no time. 

You want to avoid this as much as possible since it can add unwanted years to your appearance. Nobody wants that, right? So to transform this and give it a more youthful vibe, go the androgynous way. Adding some wavy layers to your short locks will make it a little more exciting.
