Layers are what separate a haircut that just sits there from one that actually moves. In short hair, especially, the difference between a flat, one-dimensional cut and something with life and shape often comes down entirely to how the layers are placed and how many of them there are.

Turning 40 often comes with a shift in how women think about their hair. The cuts that worked in their twenties and thirties may not feel as right anymore, and the reasons are practical as much as aesthetic. Hair texture changes. Priorities shift.
