    I love this. When I was 39, about to turn 40, I had a stylist tell me “there comes a time when long hair just looks silly on a woman”. I’m 56 now and still loving my long hair (although it’s not as long as it was then).

      I love my long hair! I have received that negative attitude ["How long is your hair... don't you think you should cut it?"], even when I was 41! I am now 47 and still have it layered and long (shoulder-blade length).
      I love long hair on women, it is so feminine. I am not ready (I doubt I ever will be) for short, blue-rinsed hairdos and geriatric rollers (ugh). When I was very young, my mother always had my hair cut short, and being curly it would coil up and I was often mistaken for a little boy. I never felt pretty or girlish in my looks. As a result, I am fiercely protective of being able to keep the long hair that, after all, I grow! It's mine (where do people even get off from telling others what to do with their lives, let alone their hair?)
      I think those who say these things are either projecting their own prejudices/expected stereotypes regarding aging women onto us OR they are just old-fashioned bores. Either way, more power to those of us who ignore them. We should be entitled to own hairstyles that we can still feel feminine, glamorous, and attractive with! :)

      @@mariabenetti8902 well said, Maria! I’m all about people doing what makes them feel best about themselves. I have nothing against short hair. I’ve seen it worn beautifully on other women. It’s just not for me. At least, not right now. Same goes for gray. I follow a lady on instagram that went gray early (I think she’s close to 60 now). She has very long gray hair and she’s an absolute knockout. I would let myself go gray if it would all come in at once but I’m only getting a few here and there. My parents didn’t truly go gray til they were 80 so 🤷‍♀️

    I’m back again. Three of your videos in a row so far tonight (this morning). I am 66 years old. I used to be beautiful, but I’ve aged and lost my looks. In the last 11 years I’ve aged on steroids. My ❤husband died suddenly in 2012, my ❤29 year old daughter took her own life last year, and my dear ❤️ dog Coke (or Bubby) went to heaven last week. They’re all together now, but I just miss my them so much. We once were 5, but now it’s just my ❤️son Christian and me now. Life has a way of hitting hard for some. It shows on me. I also lost a lot of weight when Rina, my daughter died, and that, too, has taken its toll on my face. Thank you for saying there’s no shame in aging, because our society does not embrace that philosophy. And thank you for saying”if you’re lucky to live that long”. You really are helping me and so many other women. You, like Monica, are beautiful inside and it shows on the outside. I’m glad I found your channel,Gabi. I foresee a positive change will come to me the more I watch your channel. I cannot thank you enough. Blessings ❤️and love❤️, carrie.

I regularly oil it, never use a brush, sleep in a silk bonnet, consume various beneficial supplements and only wash it about twice a month. My hair is neither dry nor wirey. It is full, soft and bouncy. Women can take care of their hair and enjoy it well into old age. ♥️

I have cut face-framing layers in it, though, unlike when I was younger. But it's not like we lose our hair overnight as we turn 50 ("thinning hair"), I for one do not have thinning hair, and I frequently dye my hair, I love changing & switching it ;) Just one point you mentioned here - IMO there's nothing wrong in looking "witchy", in fact I'd love to look that (as a Pagan, it suits my spirituality, too) :)

    I cycle through long and short hairstyles about every 7 years. My hair was very long, I was seriously overweight, and I was feeling very dragged down (even though my hair looked really good). I am now about 5 lbs away from my target/goal weight, and I am going shorter and shorter with my hairstyle. My hair grows very quickly, and I find it liberating to make drastic changes from time to time. (I went from lob to bob, now a bixie and maybe going shorter before I decide to grow it out again.) p.s. I love using purple shampoo as my silver strand... just wish they would come in more prominently.

    I love the haircut on her and it's close to what I've been considering for myself, which is what I had 10-12 years ago.
    My maternal grandmother (I'm adopted, she had fine, straight Scandinavian hair) b.1911, had long hair since the 1960s until her death in 2008. She always wore her hair up in what I'll describe as a modern modified "Gibson girl" style, that suited her features and kept her from looking severe. My 86 y.o. MIL decided to grow out her hair in her 60s. She has naturally curly hair and it softens her features, but she always wear it up anyway.
    I'm from 1976, I'll be 47 y.o. before this year is out. My hair has grown to just below my shoulders and I want it just long enough to get some "shape" cut into it, but still keep it long enough to pull up. I look better with my hair up, than I did in my youth.
    My hair is thinning, I'm finding that my white hairs are actually softer and finer than my hair that still has color, BUT my colored hair (not dyed, just not white) is growing coarser, my hair is thinning out overall.

    Hi, Gabi. I'm 78 and just had my hair trimmed the way you showed us when you did Monica's. I have never had so many compliments!! When I got home, my 83 yr. old husband was on the phone with our 25 yr. old g'daughter. When he saw me, he said, "Wow, you look so sexy!" I could hear her laugh so loudly. LOL I don't really understand how this works because my hair is almost the same length as it was but the layers have made a dramatic effect and my hair feels so different, lightweight with so much movement. I showed my new stylist your video and she really appreciated seeing exactly what I wanted. I love your manner of teaching with such sweetness and depth of knowledge.

    It’s not just that short hair looks more full, it IS more full. For ppl dealing with thinning, hair follicles start miniaturizing and strands get shorter and shorter. So cutting off the bottom where there are less strands cuts out the thinned out parts and leaves the part with more strands

I have been a licensed hairstylist since '93 and l was SO thrilled to hear you using terms that I learned with; I cannot give you enough props for that & my utmost respect- I don't feel so ancient now lol.. Question - for the 1st time in my life I've let my hair grow long (it's just at my waist) & it is naturally wavy (like beach wavy), do you feel this cut would work on very wavy hair?
    Your reply would be greatly appreciated as I have a chronic health issue & I've been in a yucky phase for a while, especially about how I look. Sorry for TMI, but info helps, as you well know.. be blessed, beautiful lady & keep sharing that gift with others..you can change somebody's entire outlook on life ❤️💯. Be blessed!

    Love the cut you gave Monica. She’s a beautiful woman as it is and you took her next level. I had a few inches taken off my length because I couldn’t get the layering like you just did. My cut would end up looking disconnected; most of the hair to my shoulders then a ratty tail going down beneath my shoulders. After 2-3 times getting the same result with 2-3 different stylists, I gave up and went with an angled lob. So I have saved your video and hope I can get that beautiful cut next time.

I'm also a curly girl so getting my hair to look cohesive is a bit of a challenge, especially since I cut it myself! I've had too many nightmare haircuts from stylist who couldn't deal with my unpredictable curls.

One thing I learned the hard way is if you can swing it money wise NOT to go back to the same place to have it “fixed” but go to the very Best salon in your area and ask for the Stylist most skilled with layered cuts and tell them why. Even if you can’t always go back to the “master” stylist a good stylist will be able to follow the lines of your new cut in future. Best of luck 🌹

It usually is not flattering on women when they get into the older years since the face, (as a result of volume loss), looks worn and drawn when the hair is too long. There are enough flattering hair styles that aren't too short that look absolutely wonderful on so many older women. I'm convinced that the right hairstyle can make all the difference in the world.
