I would say try taking the same cut you have now but make it shorter.
A good stylist would be able to do that.

I've been there before. Kinda fun to see how many different looks all those women have had over the years!

I've never been entirely through that big style site, either, even though I've visited quite a few times. It's just really massive and really cool :-) .
Of the links you posted, I like these most:

Wow, I really like those styles. I would've never thought that I would have the face to suit those kinds of haircuts, and I've never had bangs like that before. Thanks for taking the time to find those, and I will probably use those in the future, especially the 6th and 5th. I'm not sure if I want to go that short right now though, because I kind of want to cut it gradually and gradually so just incase I don't like I can grow it back faster, but I'll probably eventually get to that length. Yes, I admit I am chicken but I'm very timid about cutting my hair shorter. I guess I am also afraid that if I cut a lot off at a time, that too many people will make a big deal out of it... like screaming out "Oh my god! You cut your hair" for days on end. That happened when I cut my waist-length hair to the upper middle of my back...

The links you gave were very helpful! I've never seen so many hairstyle pictures on one site.

Here are a few that I liked for the length I'm going for now:

http://home.rasysa.com/marienbeth/style/1535.html
http://home.rasysa.com/marienbeth/style/1446.html

I do have a liking for the last two photos, and I believe they are the same hairstyle/model. I really like the side view (last link) but afraid the front view will be too short for my face? I was adviced not to get anything above the chin.

And I also really liked this one: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v322/pupuu/11669_11.jpg

Those are just a few that I've found so far... I'm not even finished browsing through the entire site yet. Even though they are pretty much the same length and all, any of those stand out in particular to you guys?

I hope I haven't been too much of a burden with all these questions... thanks again for the help. ^_^

Thanks Kuroneko!

Style 5 is exactly what I meant if she goes for midlength! She could wear it more sleek or a bit messy as in the picture.

On behalf of pupu - fine investigative work you did!

I really like the 5th one Kuroneko posted.
I think it would really suit you.

You could just wander around this place all day and see a little of everything: http://www.rasysa.com/pkg/style/
Okay, I tried to check out all the pics, and they seem to show up for me. Hopefully they'll work for everyone else, too.

Pupu,

such style would fit well, as your face has an oval shape. The forehead is a tiny bit to pronounced, so consider having a fringe to offset that a bit. The long fringe you do have now does'nt fit 100% as it stands open to one side too much. The Gillian Anderson styles you posted have the same weak point. Take this into account and any style will suit you (long/medium/short), what you like most!

Pupu, I think he photos you posted were what I were thinking of, the last one in particular, but keep your colour. I don't think the cuts will enlarge your face, you look lovely and I think you have a really nice face shape. That is just my opinion but if you want to ask any other questions feel free.

Thanks for this advice.

Yeah I can see what you are saying. I really don't want anything that's going to make my face look larger/poofy, and I think by cutting it too short it'll make my face look like a balloon. I do just want to experiment with having shorter hair because I am curious to see how I would like it, but I really don't want to get any cut that's going to make me look worse in any way. And with any haircut I get I plan to get layers because blunt cuts look really bad on me in my opionion.

I also posted to another part of these forums asking for the same help ( http://talk.hairboutique.com/forum/viewthread.asp?forum=AMB_AP426347679&id=2628 )
What do you think about the cut they suggested? Will it make my face look larger?

I really like these photos in particular:

And I really love this one with the bob styled, and my hair does tend to "poof" out like this when I blow-dry it.



Will these cuts enlarge my face?

I don't think you should cut your hair more than an inch below your ears personally, I have a friend who is similar face shape and she cut her hair above her ears and it does not look quite right. I can imagine you would look really nice with about two inches or so cut off so your hair is ending around your chin, don't have any pictures sorry! You have a pretty face and you could probably get away with quite a bit but personally I love the colour and style you have right now!

Okay. I also posted in the "short hair" section of the hair talk forum place. But I'm not sure if I posted in the right place because I see some extremely short cuts and that's not what I am looking for, so I decided to post here also just in case...

kay, I was thinking about getting my hair cut shorter... just to try it out. The current length I have it right now is the shortest it''s ever been. I''m kind of curious to see how I would look with my hair shorter though. But not too short!

I don''t want my face to look fatter, because I think my cheeks/face are somewhat chubby. I really don''t know what kind of face shape I have either. If you know, please tell me. Sometimes I feel like long hair could be dragging down my face, but I really don''t know.

Here is a picture of me with my hair kind of swept off my face so you can see my face shape:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v322/pupuu/pic1.jpg

My hair at the moment:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v322/pupuu/pic4.jpg
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v322/pupuu/pic2.jpg

I tried to pin my hair up so I could maybe get an idea of how it would look, but it''s not accurate at all because my hair''s pretty thick and most of it''s tied back in this photo:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v322/pupuu/pic3.jpg

So what do you guys think??? Please post pictures of any hairstyles that you think would suit my face. And I apologize for posting in two places also

Thanks.
