Frequently Asked Questions
- Does short or long hair make you look younger?Long hair can enhance facial features by diverting attention away from wrinkles or age spots and adding volume to your hair. Short hair does not need to age you, though, as the style and texture of shorter hairstyles can add a youthful appearance. The more texture, movement, and body your hair has, the younger you will appear, regardless of length.
- Do bangs make you look younger?Bangs can add personality and youth to a person’s appearance, but not all bangs have the same effect. Blunt bangs can draw attention to the middle of someone’s face, which may or may not reveal their age. Also, bangs must be the correct length to accentuate facial features without casting shadows.
