Hi,

I am an attractive 52 yr. old female with brown hair and a heart shaped face.

My hair has always been very fine and thin.

I am sick of the bob hairstyle. Can you suggest any other hairstyle that would be different and easy to take care of? My hair is a little wavy unless I blow dry it.

Thank you so much.

Michaelenea

The goal for a heart shaped face is to diminish forehead width and create a wider, fuller jaw effect. If you want bangs, wear them full and curly if possible. Wear a side part with soft three-quarter bangs swept over one side to balance your forehead width. The styles should be fuller at the top than at the jaw line. Upswept at the sides and off the forehead is good. A medium length to mid-neck is generally the best look. Fullness at the bottom, with hair directed forward onto the cheeks gives you the appearance of a wide chin. Curls or loose waves, shaped from the ears down, add width and fullness to your chin. Decrease volume in the crown and at the side, ear areas. Adding curl and fullness to the chin area can help round out the look. Wisps on the jaw area or bangs can help give a wider rounder appearance. Avoid styles that mirror the heart shape.
