best hairstyles for 70 year old woman image
Ultimate W
Would it be considered a perm? You know what I'm talking about. It's like short, but poofy. Why do they all do it? Is it like they just wake up one day and natural instinct convinces them they've always wanted a Feminine Pompadour, or is a slow and gradual process? Do you think they belong to an underground club? What is going on???
Hahaha. This mystery will never be solved!
Answer
Bwaahaaha! I'm 59. When I was a teenager (1960's) I wondered the same thing - The "old lady hairstyle" was even then exactly as you described it. At that time women were "appropriately garbed as adults" by a young age according to today's standards. Wearing long hair (even shoulder length) or straight hair in your 30's would have been like a 40-50 year old wearing a mini skirt now days (except for Tina Turner of course!). It was a tacky effort to BE younger, which is pretty sad and pathetic; It's very different from keeping yourself up and looking youthful.
Through the years, I have watched women drop off into the "muffy head" way. Some change into it during their 40's, 50's, 60's and some never do. My mom died at 90, and she left her muffy head behind during her 50's. She wore a really cute, straight, pixie cut. My sister (63) and I have straight shoulder length hair in a very nice cut that falls well. (At 46 mine was wavy, red and hip-length.) My point is that times have changed, but many women have not necessarily changed with the times. This is understandable for those over 70 because there really was a strong cultural edict about appropriate hair for ladies. Others who choose that muffy pompadour, stylish for all ages in the 1950's, early 1960's, are super conforming or lack taste........There are many cute styles for short and/or permed hair.
To the many who remarked that this is the easiest style to keep.......It is by far among the most difficult. If you've never had a perm or had to use rollers/curlers, cold or heated, please don't have an opinion. Those of us who have been tortured by these devices will get cranky with you.

How do I fix my dead dry hair ?
nikki
My hair used to be long and soft and beautiful with natural curls , but I bleached the tips and it seems like it killed my whole head of hair !!! It is dry and the curls are just knots now ... It's brittle and frizzy and gross .... Any home remedies ?? Or any cheap product ?? Or a type of shampoo/ conditioner I need to use ??? I'm desperate
Answer
Hair products are NOT made of glue to fix, prevent, reverse hair from getting damaged, or hair loss, or make them grow . . . . they are a trillion dollar business. They also do NOT give money back guarantee for damaged hair or hair loss caused by heat & chemicals - hair's worst enemies.
Best remedy is cutting the damaged hair (or frequently) to allow new growth to take over.
Get rid of your dyes, chemicals & straightening tools (didn't say you do).
Like skin, hair also get sunburned, so you need to protect them from the sun.
Increase your fresh fruits & vegetables by3- 5 servings and eat protein & dairy products. It does the body good.
Stay away from supplements because they don't work. It does more harm done good.
Brushing your hair when it's wet, promotes split ends.
Heat & chemicals are hair's worst enemies. Heat tampers the hair! Your hair has static electricity so when you're hair TOUCHES heat, it tampers the growth, making the hair grow ABNORMAL or none. It gets frizzy, when you leave the house, it causes split ends. It will only get shorter after you cut it, but it doesn't grow as fast. If you want curly hair, (or straight hair to tame your curly hair) look @ videos or hairstyles of women in the late 40's or 50's, and see how healthy & silky their curly hair was. Have you seen Miracle on 34th Street or Downton Abbey? Their hair wasn't styled by professional hairstylists. They were styled by maids. No hair oil, no serum, no hair sprays, and no gels with just the use of shampoo & conditioner. Many countries didn't even have bottled shampoo & conditioner, example in my country, all we've ever used was a bar of soap for our bodies, hair & laundry. I did that for 13 years, even though my hair was permed, but there was no frizzy, no blowdrying and my hair was the same as today: silky, shiny, soft, smooth it IS HOW they are styled when they're wet, and no hair dryer (for 13 years I lived in Asia). Many women then had long hair, curly hair and they wore hats, and pin-curled or plastic curlers curled HAIRSTYLES. The men too, have very shiny hair like the women, although the men used pomade . . .that was before Bumble & Bumble's production 70's, John Frieda's production 1988 or the invention of heating tools, and WEN in 1996. Another way to find the secret to beautiful hair? Find someone with beautiful healthy curls or silky, shiny (not greasy) straight hair and ask him or her to share secrets, preferably someone who is 40-60 years older than YOU. I have 5 decades, so you're getting the answers you need, right here! I won't charge you a penny!
Better yet, watch Pretty Woman - Julia Roberts's hair in that movie! In the 90's, they didn't have many hair products or heating tools and they also styled her hair many ways!
Very good example with very long & very tightly curls: watch Derek Hough dances with Brilynn Rakes, 17. Brilynn was chosen to dance on âDWTSâ when producers saw incredible videos of the blind girlâs skills. Her hair was styled many ways w/out the use of heat!
Growing healthy hair doesn't come from a bottle or pills and hair products do not speed hair growth. Any hair oil, is another form to keep hair moisturized, nothing more. If you're in HS, your hair & nails should be growing normally, and as healthily as possible, since you're eating healthy foods. But when hair isn't growing as fast, it's because they've been tampered with: chemicals, hair straightening, etc. . .
"You find people oiling hair every single day, the hair sweats and it doesnât get washed. What do you think happens? It goes limp and becomes thin because it is not breathing,â Shamillah Mohammed, a hairstylist at SUQA, says.
