The long and Short

Who it works for

Oval shaped faces look terrific with this style. It adds amazing body and life to fine, straight hair.

For waves, it has a rocker vibe

Keep layers long in back and choppy all around. This cut is all about movement. Add heavy, uneven bangs.

They can be tucked behind ears or left in front of face.

To keep it fresh, get it cut every two months

The oval face is the most versatile face. You can pull off almost any look -- short or long, straight or

wavy. Considering choosing your best facial feature and highlighting it with your haircut. If you have

gorgeous bone structure, consider an angular bob that shows off your chin. Great eyes? Blunt or side-swept

bangs are a great bet.

Avoid: Short layers that add height on top of your head. This will make your face appear long. If your hair

is thick or curly, avoid a blunt cut. You'll look like a pyramid.

The Long face shape. The perfect haircut for us is one that doesn't drag down the face, yet adds width.

Brow-skimming bangs (I plan to never go without them again). Chin-length bobs are also ideal for us because

they create the illusion of width. Curls and waves work well because they also add width.

Be careful with long hair -- too long can drag down the face. Long layers work best with pieces hitting at the

nose, the chin and the collarbone. Consider a v-shaped style, where the length is mainly in the back, while

the sides and front of your hair appear shorter. Also, consider adding wave or curls to the hair by

letting hair air dry.

Avoid: Stay away from extremely long or short cuts.
