Long Hairstyles for Women

Straight, sharply-angled strands, supple, touchable curls and soft beach waves are most feminine and beautiful when they are long. This inspirational gallery makes us lock our scissors up and start growing our tresses, but if your hair is already long, you are the lucky one, because these hairstyles and hair colors do beg to be stolen!

#1: Long Ash Blonde Hair

Yes, the pixie cut is a popular option for ladies over 40, but it’s not the end-all solution for sexy hair. Keep those locks long and flowy as long as you can. This gorgeous cascade of layers catches the light so well thanks to the expertly done cut and shiny highlights.

#2: Gray Layered Hairstyle

Long haircuts for women can be edgy and anything but tame. Adopt a rocker chic vibe with piecey bangs and textured layers. An unexpected hair color (like gray with lavender root fade) can make your whole look feel fresh. Just be sure to pair the dull hue with vibrant makeup shades to enliven your appearance.

#3: Voluminous Bubble Gum Waves

Oh hey, gorgeous! That color is yummy enough to eat. Mixing an unnatural color like bubblegum pink with something a bit more natural like strawberry blonde is a surefire way to pull off bright hair successfully. The effect is overwhelmingly sexy, instead of simply overwhelming.

#4: Cool-Toned Balayage

Women with long hair need to plan some extra time for hair care. There’s so much hair to brush, wash, and style. That’s where casual, tousled styling comes in. Creating messy, imperfect waves is so much faster than trying to achieve ideal curls on long length hair.
