First of all, I agree with the other posters: you look very cute with the curly hair. This wouldn't be an option? Otherwise I like the two pictures of hairstyles you've posted, a cut like that would probably make your face look less long. Currently I have a fringe as I think my face looks too long without it (even though it is too long and too thick at the moment - I badly need to cut my hair!) and it really helps. As you don't want a fringe, I think you should go with either curly hair or a shorter style with a side swept fringe. If you've got a longish face, you shouldn't have too heavy(?) hair as it pulls the face down.

Good luck!

Zeljo is a ass, glad he is finally banned. He has been calling everybody ugly, which of course you aren't! You have a very pretty smile by the way. Long hair does make people with longer faces make them look even longer. Since the eye goes down the length of the hair, pulling the face with it. I would go with shoulder length hair with the long sideswept bangs, and some long layers. And you look super cute with the curly style in the pink top picture.

glad you are banned. I hope it is permanent.

Moving on. I've been looking at cuts that frame the face. I know the bob I had looked cut on my when I last cut my hair to straighten out it while it grew. I might go in soon and get a cut. Oh and I went back and fixed my picture...it's happier looking.
Here's the style I've been looking at (shorter though):

That's terrible about what "zeljo" said,  just totally ignore it, he's a moron.  You are a lovely girl.  I've read that people with long faces should have their hair cut a little above chin length or a little below.  Anything longer will make your face look longer.  All the celebs you see with long faces (Jennifer Aniston) that have long hair and it looks great is because they have fashion/hair stylists working on their hair to keep is looking so good.  Goodluck!

I really like the pictures of your hair length in your pic with the pink top and curly hair, and the one next to it, and you are wearing a white top and black skirt.

The difference main between your top picture and the older ones is that you are smiling in the two old ones - and look fantastic.

Nobody looks good staring po-faced into a camera, (without make-up?) - its how they take the "before shots" in makeover articles!

Its your hair, your choice and your decision

I agree with your assumption that the style will make your face look longer.  Bangs will shorten a face, but you don't want those.  MMmmm...I guess the only thing left that I can think of would be to get the long swept bangs and some layers swept back around the cheek to mouth area.  This will open up the face and make it look wider thus having a shortening effect to the length.  The straight hair covering the sides of your face in the first pic only helps to lengthen your face (and make it droopy)

Good Luck

I tried this once before and stupid mozilla closed my broswer on me. 

I will keep it short:
  • My face looks long in my current "style"
  • I am growing my hair out to a little bit below shoulder length and I am about an inch away from it touching my shoulders
  • My face does not really look long if I pull it back or from older pictures
I want a style with texture (but I hate bangs...except long side swept) that is a little below shoulder length or longer! Anything between 2-5 inches below the shoulder is what I was wanting. I'm just so lost on what I want. I'm afraid it will all make my face look long. I have somewhat thick hair that is mostly straight.

Picture of how I always wear my hair (face looks droopy):



Other pictures that show my face features better:







Maybe I have a long face and I do not realize it. But my hair makes me look terrible! Suggestions...comments...anything!
