So far I do not know what I will do. I might not even have layers. Bangs...maybe.  I need something to break up my face. My hair just hit my shoulders and even though I am leaning forward you can see it.

I realize that is not how the bangs are styled, but have seen too many people with those bangs that keep falling in their face - they are constantly pushing them to the side or worse, doing the head tilt to keep them out of their eyes.  If it worked for you...great - didn't know you already had bangs like that before.

Oh and I am looking at the cut people...not how they styled it.

LOL! They do that so if you take it to teh stylist they can see what was done. It will not be in my face. A lot of people do not understand that and will be like "I hate all those styles...all of them have too much hair in teh face". But I had bangs like that and no problem keeping them out of my face unless I looked down and them up. You will also notice that they brushed her bangs in front of her face. Look at where the bangs start.

I like drastic color mixes like those.  The first one looks cool, but you will have to be prepared to straighten it to get that pointy look.

You can always cut but can't put the hair back, so I think if you really want to grow your hair out, just keep a smoothly (I don't like choppy layers either) layered style throughout like the long hair pic and you will have more demension. I do like the sideswept bangs, though. mine are cheeklength and keep my hair from looking too boring (my hair is about the same length as yours.)

I second that!


Yeah, but I was chatting with my younger sister about if she thinks my face is long. She told me no it did not look long but my face looks so droopy is because I have no texture. My hair just hangs there. I need some bangs or something to break it up. Now I wish my hair would grow faster.

Ya know, in the 2 older pics you actually look like you have a square jaw and wider face.  Is your head angled downward in the 2 pics where your face looks longer?  Either way, I've said before and I'll say again, I don't think people should worry over their face shape.  That is one of the things that make us look different from each other and unique. (And another way the salon industry tries to convince us we need to change our hair).  I have a long face and I tried what they said.  I had the chin length bob with bangs, and it did make my face look less long...but that didn't make me look better, it made me look worse because my long face suits my features.  We don't all need to strive for oval.  You will look good no matter what you choose.  Good luck.

I was just saying your hair won't look all choppy if you don't want it to.

Yeah, but personally I have been getting away with using less hair products in my hair. I use just a little product to keep the frizziness on top from sticking up.

But her hair looks choppy! Looks like someone really butched her hair. I love her bangs though...but not as much as the second picture. But my hair is THICK. And it can't be styled like that.

Always_alone,

I think the last top pic hairstyle (the one with bangs and (great) green eyeshadow) would look awesome on you.

That curly hair was for my oldest sister's wedding. She wanted us to all get our hair done! Anyway, it involved a ton of hair products to get it to stay like that.

As for fringe...I am very picky about it. But I love these bangs:
