Add curls to your look. Curls can add more body and bounce to an older woman's hair. If you have naturally curly hair, use hair serum to bring out the body of the curls. For women without curls, use different size rollers to create more body.

Get a long and layered haircut. This style is very low maintenance and looks good on any face shape. For senior women, you should go for layers surrounding the face.

Consider bangs. Bangs can hide facial flaws and are very trendy looking. You may want to try side swept bangs that are wispy to create a youthful look.

Use hair accessories. A few tasteful accessories can also make a senior appear younger. Headbands and simple clips in neutral colors can be used to pull back hair away from the face.

Style your hair after a senior celebrity. For example, if you like the way that Ellen Burstyn or Bette Midler wears her hair, bring a picture to your stylist and have her copy the look.

Tips & Warnings
For longer hair, it is important that you take care of it, so that it continues to look healthy. Use a moisturizing conditioner and take a daily vitamin.
Avoid girlish hair accessories. Jeweled and frilly clips and headbands are more appropriate for the younger set.
