Hair Mistakes That Make You Look Older
Sophia Bowman
As we age, our hair thins, so it's tempting to whip out the hairspray and give yourself some serious volume. The problem is that too much hairspray gives you that stiff 80s look, so not youthful. "We all want to avoid it, yet this super stiff hairstyle, popularized by news anchors in the 1980s, is still quite popular with the news world and beyond," celebrity hair stylist Scott Yance told me.
"When clients ask for a cut like this, I am always honest with them, letting them know that a stiff hairstyle will always make you look years older." Yance actually likes to steer clear of traditional hairspray all together. He prefers more versatile products that still let the hair move. If you're stuck in a windstorm and your hair doesn't move, it's time to move away from the hairspray.
