    Posted: March 01 2004 at 10:11am
I currently have shoulder length blonde very curly hair. I am considering having it cut very short so that it loos smarter. However, I have a fat face and do not want any new style to highlight this. I also need a low maintanance style as I have no time in the morning. does anyone have any suggestions?

Try a styled short bob cut with waves, like in the movie CHICAGO.
That is a nice look that might work for you.
Good luck!

I disagree.

With a chubby face it would look awful, just accentuate the features that u may not want to!

Perhaps just have a trim and add some layers depending on ur hairs texture.......

If the curls are too full at the sides, it'll only accentuate the roundness. If it's close all over, it'll bring your face into full focus, and the roundness will look even more noticeable.
For not playing up a chubby face, I'd have to go with the crop, but not all-over close, just close at the sides and back and fuller at the top.
More awesome than a manatee!

I agree with Kuroneko very short on the sides and back and fuller on top will elongate your face and slim it...
Change is good for the soul and fun to talk about!

So, would you say bangs were a good idea as well?
