On Instagram as on TV sets, certain faces suddenly appear fresher, sharper, without any aesthetic retouching. Behind this rejuvenating effect is often a simple hairstyle with a lifting effect. And it often only requires a simple change of cut.
Rejuvenating without injections becomes a beauty reflex, especially when the eyes droop and the oval relaxes. Three star hairstylists reveal their secret weapons: high ponytail, long bob with bangs and low, fuzzy bun.
Why a lifting effect hairstyle rivals injections
For Delphine Courteille, everything starts from the frame of the face: playing on the bangs or the locks allows you to correct a marked forehead, a tired look, where some would turn to aesthetic medicine. For her, hair becomes an optical correction tool.

High ponytail: the lifting effect hairstyle of celebrities
Alexis Parente first places the high, ultra-pulled ponytail at the top of anti-aging hairstyles. It’s also the one that Lucie Bernardoni adopted during the second semi-final of , swapping her mid-length bob for an XXL ponytail. Result: stretched features, highlighted cheekbones, sharper look.

Long bob with bangs and low fuzzy bun: two anti-aging allies
For those who prefer loose hair, Delphine Courteille recommends the long bob with bangs or framing locks. Slightly layered and stopped at the shoulder, it dresses the forehead, lightens the lower part of the face, maintains movement and goes well with glasses. It’s an easy-to-maintain cut that remains modern at any age.
summarizes Gianni Coppa, founder of the R’Factory salon.
Which lifting effect hairstyle to choose after 40?
Choose a high ponytail, a long bob with bangs or a low, fuzzy bun, depending on your texture.
Does a tightly pulled ponytail damage your hair?
Occasionally, no: everything comes down to tension. Alternate with looser ties and sometimes leave your hair down.
Can you get a lifting effect with curly hair?
Yes, whether in a soft ponytail or a low fuzzy bun, keeping a few curly strands around the face.
