7 Celeb-Approved Hair Updates To Make You Look Years Younger

Jessica Alba, Anne Hathaway and more show how a new hair colour or haircut can make them look fresher and take years off their face

by Elizabeth Liew  /   September 9, 2016

Is your hair ageing you? A fresh new hair colour or cut (or both!) can easily transform your look and take years off your face! In fact, a flattering new ‘do can also boost your confidence and make you feel like anything is possible.

Check out these before and after pictures of celebs like Jessica Alba, Anne Hathaway and Eva Longoria who showcase 7 ways to update your hair:

7 Celeb-Approved Hair Updates To Make You Look Years Younger
1. Sunkissed Highlights

Ask your stylist for highlights to brighten up your look. Eva Longoria’s signature dark brown hair is taken to the next level with “golden brown highlights that warm up her skin tone and bring colour to her face”, comments stylist Ivan Low of Kim Robinson. Eva also took several inches off the end, debuting a shoulder-brushing length that is fresh and sexy.

2. Ombre Waves

The ombre is still very much on-trend, and Anne Hathaway works the look well. “Her ombre colour, with contrasting tones and lighter hair at the ends, reflects light onto her face, making her look younger, and her skin tone brighter,” says stylist Bosco Eng from Hairloom. Soft, effortless waves give added volume and texture too!

Top tip: For more volume

Strengthen lifeless locks with Rene Furterer’s Tonucia Anti-Age Toning & Densifying shampoo, $39.90 (200 ml). Its revitalising blend of essential oils and plant extracts works to reinvigorate the scalp and help add a lushness to thinning hair.

3. Blooming Balayage

Opt for a trendy balayage at your next salon session, just like Jessica Alba’s hazel and brown blend (her previous brown hair was gorgeous but we love the update!). Compared to regular highlights, “the 3D effect created by the balayage makes her hair look fuller and more voluminous. The natural-looking blending of colours helps make her hair look healthier, which makes her look younger too,” says Bosco.

4. Light Layers

Compared to Priyanka Chopra’s previous style that looked heavy and dated, her new ’do is way more relaxed and modern. The layers help soften her look by “creating movement and giving her tresses new life”, says Ivan. We love how the choppy layers add texture and height without being too old-fashioned bouffant.

5. Youthful Bangs

Rashida Jones demonstrates that a small difference, like getting bangs, can really change things up. “Bangs covering the forehead makes one look younger,” notes stylist Asako from COVO. Also, the “casual styling with choppy ends” gives a more youthful vibe, while the heavier curls in her older style added unnecessary weight and years.

Top tip: Fight hair loss

Each vial of Phyto’s Phytologist 15 anti-hair loss treatment is formulated with 99 per cent natural and botanical ingredients to help slow down hair fall and stimulate hair growth for a fuller, thicker-looking mane. At $299.90 for a set of 15 vials with applicator.

6. A Charming Crop

When Michelle Williams chopped off her long hair in 2007, the world knew then that the pixie belonged to her. She’s tried to grow it out into a bob, accompanied with an edgy blunt fringe, which, though fashionable, didn’t do her youthful features justice. So, Michelle’s returned to her famous gamine style which enhances her eyes and cheekbones.

7. Healthy Hues

Choose the right colour that enhances your skin tone.  Asako notes the ash colour makes Maggie Q’s skin look dull and tired. She adds, “Toning down her colour brings out the lustre and shine in Maggie’s hair and the warmer shade makes her look healthier too.”
