A Look at Long Hair and the Mature Woman
We’ve all heard the theory that a woman past a “certain age” should never wear long hair, but should rather have a more age-appropriate hairstyle. Of course, what is “age appropriate”? The truth is that in today’s world, age is little more than a number and should have nothing to do with a person’s sense of style. Just look at the ladies above:

Elizabeth Hurley (41) – At 41, Ms. Hurley (Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery, Bedazzled) is now entering the category of “mature women”, but that hasn’t slowed her down. Still sought after as an actress and model, her long hair shows she’s still sexy, vibrant and downright ‘hot’.
Bernadette Peters (59) – While Bernadette Peters will long be remembered for her role in the Steve Martin comedy, The Jerk, she has made a name for herself as a true performer on the Broadway stage. She’s won two Tony awards and been nominated for five others. With her trademarks curls, Ms. Peters is still a stunning woman at 59.
Bebe Neuwirth (48) – This 48-year-old actress of TV (Cheers, Frasier) and the Broadway stage (Chicago) is a far cry from the icy character she portrayed on television. Her long sable curls prove that even an older woman can still smolder.

Stevie Nicks (58) – Always one to buck the system and convention, songstress Stevie Nicks is still one of the most beautiful women of Rock and Roll history. Her long-layered-locks are something even women half her age would envy.
Susan Sarandon (60) – The oldest of the actresses shown here, Susan Sarandon has played everything from the innocent ingénue in Rocky Horror Picture Show, to the sultry older woman in White Palace. Whatever the role, she’s an amazing actress and her blazing red hair always starts a fire onscreen.
Valerie Bertinelli (46) – Valerie became a household name as the plucky younger daughter in the ground breaking sit-com One Day at a Time. Later in her career, she became the “Queen of the TV Movie” and has been considered one of television’s most beautiful women. From a beautiful youngster to a gorgeous woman, she still looks astonishing at 46.
