Ready to give your hair a fresh start this summer? Let's face it: mid-length hair after 50 isn't going anywhere, and for good reason. It's timeless, flattering, and easy to style without looking stuck in a rut. If you want a hairstyle that's modern, fresh, and dynamic (without spending hours on upkeep), this is your season to shine.
So, why is medium-length hair after 50 so appealing? For starters, it strikes the perfect balance: not too long or too short, which means it's versatile enough to play with volume, texture, and style. Plus, it gently softens facial features, lending a youthful, approachable vibe to anyone brave enough to try something new.
This summer, the 'midi flick' is topping trend lists everywhere. If you haven't heard the buzz yet, stylist Tom Smith chatted with the team at Woman & Home to explain why this look is the ultimate age-defying move for those 50 and up. Midi Flick: The Go-To Cut for Youthful Style
This style is basically a longer bob with slightly flicked, tapered ends, and it's designed to rejuvenate, not age. The midi flick sits around your collarbone, hugging the contours of your face. This instantly softens the jawline and lifts the head for a sophisticated, fresh look. It plays nicely with volume, which is key when you're aiming for youthful energy.
Wondering how to style it? Tom Smith suggests wearing this cut with soft, tousled waves, which add movement. If you're blessed with natural curls, flaunt them because they really bring this style to life.

This summer, three chic medium-length bobs are making waves: the broom bob, the lifted bob, and the butterfly bob. Each offers a flattering update for different hair types and face shapes.
The Broom Bob features a sleek, straight silhouette with slightly feathered ends that frame the face. Its clean structure adds polish while maintaining a natural flow. Ideal for a minimalist yet bold look, it delivers an instant glow-up with a sharp center or side part.
The Lifted Bob brings volume and movement to the roots. This airy, tousled style creates a lifted effect, making facial features appear more defined and radiant. It's perfect for fine or limp hair that needs a boost.
The Butterfly Bob, inspired by the butterfly haircut, blends soft layers around the face with a sculpted shape at the nape. Feminine and fresh, it offers a breezy boho twist that breaks away from traditional, rigid bobs.

Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet Have Perfected Courtside Date Night Style
Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner attend Game Six of the Eastern Conference Finals of the 2025 NBA Playoffs between the New York Knicks and the Indiana Pacers, May 31 2025, Indiana. (Photo by) Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet's courtside date nights may have come to an abrupt end over the weekend after their team's loss, but they graced us with one last sweet sighting of the season. Known New York Knicks super-fan Chalamet has been a fixture at many games over this NBA season, drawing attention for his courtside style and passion. Jenner has since joined in on the fanfare, attending two games with the A Complete Unknown star before the one this past Saturday. While the Knicks may have lost to the Indiana Pacers this weekend, the couple at least brought their A-game in the outfit department. (Photo by) (Photo by) Chalamet donned his brand of choice—Chrome Hearts—wearing a custom orange and blue suede Knicks jacket and matching pants. To accessorise, he added a gold chain and sporty silver sunglasses to his look. His look was on par with his usual flashy 90s streetwear style—at least for the courtside. Meanwhile, Jenner also stuck to her game uniform, with a white tank top, dark jeans, and white pumps. She added a nylon orange, blue, and white Knicks bomber to represent the team. Just a few days prior, at an earlier Knicks vs Pacers game, the Khy founder wore a white crop top, black Gucci leather pants, and white Chanel heels with an orange Jean Paul Gaultier leather jacket.

'Kylie's really happy and relieved they finally made their debut. It was time, and she wanted to publicly support him and show how proud of him she is,' a source told Us Weekly . It seems they have both perfected their Knicks-based sartorial vibes, which we'll hope to see again next season. But for now, we can't wait to see how the couple's style evolves in the meantime off the court. topics: Kylie Jenner, timothee chalamet, kylie and timothee, NBA, knicks, Kardashians, Jenners, celebrity, celebrity couples, celebrity fashion, Trending, celebrity news

Bella & Gigi Hadid Reveal They Have Another Sister: "We've Cherished This Unexpected And Beautiful Addition To Our Family"
Photo: Getty Supermodel sisters Bella and Gigi Hadid have revealed they have another sister. In a joint statement given to the Daily Mail , the siblings shared they have another half-sister named Aydan Nix, who is the daughter of their father, Mohamed Hadid. The sisters stated their father had a 'brief romance' with Terri Hatfield Dull, the mother of 23-year-old Aydan, after his divorce from Yolanda Hadid in 2001. 'Over 20 years ago, our dad, while single, had a brief relationship that led to a pregnancy,' the Palestinian-Dutch sisters outlined in their statement, which they highlighted they didn't know about until recently. Photo: Courtesy of Fashion Trust Arabia 'Aydan was born and raised in Florida, growing up with the man she lovingly knew as her father until his sudden passing when she was 19,' the statement added. This prompted Aydan to 'take a genetic test out of curiosity', which led the then-teenager to uncover she had a 'biological connection' to the Hadid family. According to their statement, Gigi and Bella connected with their younger half-sister in late 2023. 'We've cherished this unexpected and beautiful addition to our family,' Gigi and Bella stated, but also affirmed their hopes for Aydan's continued right to privacy. 'As siblings, we've had many open and loving conversations—with Aydan included—about how to support and protect her,' the sisters said in their statement to the outlet. 'Aydan and her family value their privacy, and we fully respect that. 'We kindly ask others to do the same and honour her wish and right to her anonymity as she continues her life as a young woman in New York.' Not much is known about Aydan, apart from she currently resides in New York City, having reportedly recently graduated from Parsons School of Design, with the hopes of working in the fashion industry. Photo: Instagram Bella, 28, and Gigi, 30, also have a brother, Anwar Hadid, 25, from Mohamed and Yolanda's marriage. They also have two other half-sisters, Alana Hadid, 39, and Marielle Hadid, 44, from Mohamed's previous marriage to Mary Butler. While it's not known about the ins and outs of the supermodel siblings' relationship with Aydan, both Gigi and Bella follow the aspiring designer on Instagram, as well as Mohamed.
