Question: I have a really long face and a prominent jaw line. I would love to cut my hair short but some articles I’ve read have warned against shoulder length hair for women with my shaped face, what is your opinion?
Answer: Short hair is good on long faces, Chin length is not so good. Why? Because chin length styles tend to make the face appear longer and puts all the emphasis on the jaw especially if the hair is combed straight down the sides of the jaw. It’s an optical illusion of some sort.
Try cutting your hair in a Dorothy Hamil style, you know the kind she used to wear when she won the gold. That hair cut appears to cut the length of the face and looks pretty flattering on prominent jaw lines.
If you decides that the short hair thing is to short and you want to throw the dice at a shoulder length doo, make sure you sweep it away from your jaw line as to not put any emphasis on that area. Remember you want to look soft and feminine I think.
The best advices I give to people that ask me about face shapes versus hair styles is this,
You only live once, so why deprive your self of a hair style desire? Hair grows out and before you know it you will be back where you started.
