What does a haircut look like that foreign women are afraid of: many Russian women over 40 do it

Layered variations of haircuts such as bob and bob are consistently recommended for women over 40. This length of hair is considered comfortable and optimal, because it is easy to style. Plus, layering lets you add volume to your hairstyle. With age, when hair thins, this becomes especially important.

Bob can look completely different – since the haircut can be done in many techniques, combined with all sorts of spots and styled in different ways. But one of the types of such a hairstyle in the world of Western beauty is now usually bypassed. In popular culture, he even received a special name – “Karen’s haircut” (#karenhair).

A few years ago, the cult of “Karen” appeared in America – we talked about this phenomenon in more detail in this material. Briefly explained, Karen’s name has become a household name. So they began to call middle-aged women with a complex character: who like to scandalize in public, belittle people working in the service sector and demonstrate their supposedly different position in society.

A similar beauty detail can be seen even in the movies. Middle-class white women are usually portrayed with this stereotypical hairstyle. And with love to quarrel and find out the relationship 🙂

The cult of Karen is often denounced and is the subject of parodies on social networks and comedy shows. Not surprisingly, foreign women began to avoid such a hairstyle – so as not to cause others to draw the wrong conclusions.
