www.freedigitalimages.netKeeping young and beautiful is a quest for many, but with the beauty clock ticking, time waits for no one.

When it comes to hair, we know that grey, thinning locks can add years to our faces but it is possible that you, and your hairdresser, are making ageing mistakes without even knowing it.

Fear not, we are here to help save the day so you can have an amazing, youthful hair day, everyday.

Too short
We aren’t saying that healthy hair can’t be cut into a sophisticated crop but keep things a little shaggy and avoid of blunt lines so your look is modern and on trend.

Too long
Just as with hair that is too short, when your hair is too long it can actually drag your features down and act as an ‘anti-face-lift’. Whilst long, middle parted hair is great for teenagers, as you get older if you want to keep the length ask your hairdresser to add layers that frame the face and deflect attention away from fine lines and tired skin.

Too Straight
A poker straight hairstyle can make your face look long and drawn. If you have fine, straight hair go for choppy, long layers that will give your hair magical, youthful movement. Blow dry straight hair with a round brush, after adding a little lightweight mouse, to create volume and bounce.

Too blond
As you get older you completion loses colour and over-bleached hair will wash you out making you instantly look tired and sallow. Rather than all-over blond, go for a darker base colour with honey highlights that will warm your skin up and give you an instant golden glow.

Too dark
Solid black and brown hair at best draws attention to lines and at worse makes you look like you are wearing a wig. Adding in a few strategically placed highlights add softness and makes dark look more natural and flattering.

Too grey
We all dread those grey hairs but they don’t have to make you look ancient. Products that contain shine enhancers as well as high and low lights take away the aging effect of those silver strands away and leave you looking radiant.

Too dry
As well as your hair losing pigment as you get older, it also loses its ability to retain moisture. To keep your locks looking smooth, glossy and youthful, use a deep conditioning treatment once a week, don’t wash your hair everyday, don’t overuse the straighteners and have frequent trims to avoid split ends.

Too styled
Mouse, gel and hairspray are fine when used alone, but start mixing things up and you could get into trouble. Go with one product at a time and use the advised amount otherwise rather than your hair looking fuller it may look stiff and dry – the ultimate aging combination.

Remember to do all of this, because you are worth it.
