In my opinion, heavier women also look lovely with very long hair, down or in updos (just my opinion though). The problem with the shorter styles is where the layered ends have to be flipped upwards in the morning with the curling iron to make it look stylish, that takes a lot of time in the mornings.  If you choose the mid neck or shoulder length, and just get the gradual face framing feathering to make layers around the face that hug the jawline, you won't have to do anything to it in the mornings except maybe wet it so it lays down.  If you want it to look really stylish, go for the highlights or dimensional dyes that are popular now.  But anyway, you've got to go for something you like that makes you happy, that is what's most important. ------------- Making metal barettes/concord clips hair safe, long hair style how to: http://alonghair.wordpress.com
