What hairstyles work for slimming the face?

It's all about length...to create a longer line along the sides of the face.

• If you're hair is too short, It may not give you the balance of a longer, sleeker hairstyle.
  • For example, if you have a bob and want to get the optimum face slimming effects, have it cut past your jawline. At the jawline, though striking will do a fuller face no favors.
• If you have wavy or curly hair, keep it on the longer side, too. Volume is great, but if it's a mid length cut it may look just plain wide.

For that reason, sleeker styles are always face slimming. It just gives a more narrow silhouette.
