ive got thick hair that i wanted to get cut into a kind of short choppy texturized bob that i saw in a magazine. but i was wondering, will a short cut just accentuate my stick figure? i dont want to look as if there is nothing of me!!! would longer hair make me look as if i have a bit more extra bulk? its kind of shoulder length now.
is there anyone else out there who is skinny, and how do you wear your hair?

Actually, I think that big hair (not saying yours is big - just showing the relationship) makes you look skinnier or at least gives you the appearance of a big head. A short choppy do should draw attention to your facial area thus taking away from your skinny physique. Anyway, being skinny is healthier than being overweight!

Hey my friend is really skinny and she just got her hair cut to about right below her ears and she looks alot better now than when she had longer hair. if you are skinny normally skinny people look better with short hair because long hair makes your face look longer and skinnier. peace and goodluck!

I think shorter hair would make you look less skinny. I think you should go for it.
