Women Hairstyles for Long Faces, Long Forehead & Nose, any good hairstyle?
I have a long face with a long forhead too. and a long chin to add to that. kind of like a sideways rectangle. i cant never wear ponytails because of the shape of my face. i have tried many haircuts (including super short which I think was my worst choice) and cant seem to find the best haircut for me. right now i have shoulder length hair, side bangs that end at the bottom of my eyes and layers. shortest layers are at my eyes. My hair is so thick at the bottom and thin at the top so i am always getting layers put in to round it out. is this hairstyle wrong for me? should i let it grow out and try another one. if so which one will be best for me?

Hello Kendall,
Hairstyles for long face especially with a long forehead and chin may be difficult to find. The main reason is that a long forehead makes the face to appear narrow. Hairstyles with bangs are a good choice for you as it will help to lessen the forehead length. As you have indicated that your hair is thin from the top and quite thick towards the ends, then having layers are good.
Hairstyles to for big noses and long face, forehead that you should avoid
1. Short hairstyles are not a good choice for you as your aim is to minimize the look of long nose and short haircuts like pixie cuts will do the reverse.
2. Go for hairstyles with Bangs, layers, soft waves. Adding color highlights to the hair will create more emphasis on the hairstyle rather than your facial features.
3. Perfect length for you will be medium to long length hairstyles.
3. Don't opt for sharp edges or straight hairstyles. A softer look including layers and soft waves will do wonders. Avoid sedu straight hairstyles if possible.
4. Apart from hairstyles changes, do work on your eye makeup that will also assist in minimizing the illusion of long face & nose.
These are some of the tips that anyone with a long face, forehead or big nose may want to consider.

I agree 100% short hairstyles bring out the forehead and face length even more. The only that works for me honestly is side swept bangs and I need FULLNESS in every style. Nomore straight hair for me.
